Do I need to renew all the paperwork every year for a marriage extension in Thailand?

Mike ********

Yes, just doing mine in Chiang Mai,the amount of paperwork, in duplicate, is ridiculous but that's the way it is.Photos in bedroom,lounge,kitchen and standing next to mail box showing address.For us 18 years same address,never had a single visit.

Is it necessary to lodge a TM30 when returning to Thailand with a married to Thai citizen visa?

Mike ********

@Matthew ********

Yes we can do it ourselves but it's pointless when you're travelling within the country and returning to the same address over and over for 16 years.House book has nothing to do with the insane repetition

Mike ********

Always some confusion about travelling within Thailand and returning to your previous address no need to do another TM 30.In our case 16 years at the same home we own.Different officers , different answers

What time should you arrive at Chang Watthana to get to the front of the queue?

@Gordon ***********

Bit different in Bangkok if you compare numbers of people using Immigration,always wondered why they don't open more offices.Used to write off my only day off 20 years ago travelling across the city and joining the queue.
