You said you are married same here. 2 years I have retired and getting a small private pension.

I have got the O visa for 90 days. In which time I will open a bank account with ten thousand pounds off four hundred thousand thai bahts to get the married year visa leaving this money in the bank guarantees that I will always have the right amount of money plus if the government gets tighter with regulations.And I have to leave, i've got some starting up money back in the uk.Or wherever I would end up lol i am told by the site as soon as I arrive there next week if to go and get the bank account sorted. My wife has the house farm with her book already

You say u had got your E-visa. But if in the uk it's a 90 day one u get before u go ? Most places going to thailand get a 60 day visa free if u dont need more then that no need to get visa

@Ken ********
i was told to get the ninety day O visa then when in Thailand after 2months i can apply for the bank account in Thailand.

To be able to get the year visa, I have the ten grand to go in the bank. (400k bahts ) based on being married and to get this, you need to show

Your wife's information which can only be done in thailand so how can you get a marriage visa year?One before you go?

In total. I applied on the second

Of september although they did pathway through this time, request to see my Thai version of my marriage licence.

Because I sent the official English translation one would stamp. But they do not accept which obviously added a few more days on as someone else has mentioned, it is stamped valid from today's

Date for 3 months but lucky for me, I go to live there. Next month. To sort out the marriage visa for the year i wish you all the best.I'm getting yours
