after your arrival, go visit the immigration serving the area where you reside. Ask them for the handout listing the documents needed for an application for an 1-year EOS (extension of stay permit) based on being married to a Thai

you have applied for AND ALREADY received a 90-day visa in the UK ? My question: can you please confirm that you applied for a 90-day Non-Imm-O Single Entry, based to being married to a Thai ? When you arrive with the Non-Imm-O visa in Thailand, you will receive an "admitted until" stamp in your passport. You will not be given a new "visa". However with the Non-Imm-O you can apply for an "Extension of Stay" (EOS) based on being married to a Thai. In this case the bank deposit needs to be 400,000 THB. The money needs to have sat in your account for 2 months before your application

as of "visiting family purpose" there are other visa types (Non-Imm-O based on married to Thai or support spouses") to apply for, the METV doesn't really fit. but if the Embassy says it does, then if one fits all requirements, why not opt for. you are but right, these requirements from the Embassy don't make much sense. Please await more info from the admins - it is middle of the night in Thailand now

very strange, as an METV is for tourism purposes. I think you should be patient, await the admins will have an answer to this for sure

is this an official website from a Thai Government Ministry? Any private website constructeurs and so called "agencies" can write anything and it needn't be true

if he is already in the second year of his O/A, he just needs to do a border run without a re-entry permit, in order to void the visa. As a U.S. citizen, he will be given a 30 day visa exempt upon re-entry and his existing Non-Imm-O/A will be stamped VOID

I will do my yearly extension in Sisaket on Januray 4th, 2020. I am curious if I will receive such a note, saying I have to come back on April 4 th for a bankbook check. I would not be able to comply, as I will make a trip to Europe leaving Thailand on March 21st. I am curious about what will be their reply

thedownside is, if you enter with a Non-Imm-O/A, insured for 365 days by a foreign insurance, then let's say after 5 months you exit Thailand for a trip, and when you re-enter, you won't get the 365 days stamped, again. Because you can only get stamped in for the period you are insured. And still we don't know if immigration at a border might refuse entry because they cannot stamp you back with 365 days anew, because you are not insured for the full time. It is a complete mess . . . . .

. . and foreign insurance only for the first year of a freshly issued Non-Imm-O/A. I have received one report from a german that his home country insurance refused to sign the "certificate" . . I highly doubt any insurance will

the "form to stay over 90 days" is the 90-day report slip, it is now probably stapled into your passport
