What visa should I apply for as a UK citizen planning to marry my Thai girlfriend and stay in Thailand?
Steve *******
You need to apply for the Non Imm O visa. It's both the marriage visa and the visa for being 50 and over(commonly called the retirement visa). You'll need this visa to open a bank account and to apply for a yearly extension of stay.
