thanks. We never registered our marriage with a consulate in the US not amphur in Thailand so I'm kind of looking for a workaround while I go through that process.
Thank you very much for the information and advice. It seems like my best option is to get the US marriage certificate recognized by Thailand and apply for a spouse visa in Savannah ket.
Same experience. Wise estimate was around 180usd. Wire from Schwab was 15usd. Kasikorn gave a great exchange rate and 500thb fee on a similar amount of money.
