Yes sir.

Non O multi entry based on marriage to a Thai.

The visa was issued to me on 20 May 2024.

I did include proof of funds, my UK bank statement was fine.

An additional document to the requirements in Laos was a sponsor letter signed by my wife.

This basically said my name and that we are married.

No appointments needed, when it’s done they call you for colllestion.

No queues.

It took 4 days for approval, this was fine as I was staying in Indonesia for 4 weeks.

Out of my applications for this same visa in Vietnam, Laos, UK and Indonesia, and also an extension of stay in Thailand Jomtiem, (I think that’s the name of the visa issued in Thailand) Jakarta was simple.

Not one question asked.

Jakarta

Absolute walk in the park.

@Ellie ******

Thank you for confirming.

I did read the conditions and thought this was not applicable, was not 100% sure though.

@Tod ********

Can a DTV be issued instead of a none o based on marriage to a Thai national?

@Geoff *********

Thanks

Ah ok.

The chanote will replace the previous rental contract then.

Much appreciated, thanks for the information regards time lines for new application.

I’ll will start the process end of February and top up bank accordingly.

Keep up the good work there !

All above from condo owner. I only rent in Pattaya.

I have house in Sa Kaeo but stuck here 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

@Tod ********

Can you help me please.

I’ve been in and out the same immigration office in Jomtiem last few days.

I have everything they need for an extension of stay according to the above document.

That have now sent me away again with some shitty bit of paper wanting the condo owners blue book and other irrelevant things from her as per hand written note.

Have you had experience with this before ?

I’ll go and ask the nice chap in Sa Kaeo again.

Not been for a few years but I’m sure he’ll remember me as I was there quite often, oddly he advised me to cross the border at Poipet into Cambodia for the 90 day extension as it was easier.

Is the “under consideration” time for them to carry out the administration side?

If I have all the documents and funds there it just seems a long process to put a sticker in a passport.

Maybe it’s the Thai way!

Get the re-entry at Survhanibumi when I leave.

Yes sir.

I know I’ll have to do this all again.

Company pay for everything, I just have to do the quarantine and not go mental.

Are you in Bangkok ?

@Bobby *******

Yeah I done this about 6 weeks ago in anticipation of extending in Thailand.

Thanks for the advice.

Appreciated.
