1. Your girlfriend enters without a visa (visa exempt) and is granted a stay of 30 days, which can be extended for a further 30 days. 2. Have you checked the requirements at the local Amphoe where you intend to marry? Have you researched how to obtain an affidavit of freedom to marry, translations, and legalisation of said documents by the Consular section of the MFA? 3. On what basis will your girlfriend apply for a Non Imm O. Unless 50 years of age and proof of the equivalent of 800K THB in a bank account, Health Insurance, certificate of criminal record ........... it ain't happening! 4. You appear to be jumping into the frying pan without previous research.

You've been extending your permission of stay since 2008, based on Thai spouse, which is a permit, not a visa. Your Non O visa expired years ago. 2 sets of documents are standard, other than CW which is both a local and regional office.

You can apply for a 60-day extension to visit Thai spouse every entry. You can apply for a further 30 day extension, followed by a further 60 day extension to visit Thai spouse, that will take you through until late middle of August

Contact them via an answerable email for an explanation.

The Non Imm 0-A is ME and if the OP obtains an LTR visa that is also ME, so no re-entry permit required. You don't submit 90-day reports on an LTR visa.

Lazy speak, not short speak, and no, not everybody understands, and those incorrect terms do put people on the wrong foot.

You can't and don't extend a Non Imm 0 visa, and you know better than that.

Thanks, missed that part, however the OP doesn't state where they intend to marry. In OP's previous posts, until 2 weeks ago the OP was asking questions with the intention to live in the Philippines, so it's all a bit confusing.

Partner is a broad term. Can you define your term, either member of a married couple or of an established unmarried couple? What visa type would that be that allows you to stay for 14 months. Did you obtain a Non O and 1 year permit of stay through an agent?

No idea why you want to complicate your given position. New Non O based on Thai spouse for re-entry to Thailand. 1 year permit of stay based on Thai spouse from Immigration. Less hassle, less cost. You can take out voluntary Health Insurance as desired from any Insurer, as opposed to being restricted to a TGIA Insurer.

You completely misunderstand the OP's position and when an FET form may be required. There are many ways to provide proof of an overseas transfer. The OP already stated on his online bank account the 800K is coded as 'International transfer'. He doesn't need any more than that.

You were fobbed off, that simply isn't true. You can only obtain a 'credit advice' receipt from the bank where you hold an account. If it was paid through another receiving bank into your branch account, then you need an FET (Foreign Exchange Transfer) form from the receiving bank.

@LosLobo Immigration will not accept screenshots. Print off the Wise pdf receipt as explained by @sandyf above. Have Bangkok Bank print off a 1 month statement, stamp and sign. I'd also request the standard letter for Immigration. For future reference, if transferring to BKK through Wise, always select the reason of the transfer as; Your passbook entries should then be coded as FTT (Foreign Telex Transfer), provided it was paid through Wise partner office at BKK.

Only 12 month statements. They can print off 6-month statements in branch within minutes.

I wouldn't trust any information from a travel agency to be correct. The latest official financial requirement for a 1 year extension of stay based on retirement is contained in Immigration order 35-2561 (2019 (changed clause 2.22 of 327-2557 ENG.pdf You'd apply under the requirements of clause 4.

You obviously don't read the forms you complete for an extension, or the stamps you receive.

FFS! OP asked about applying for an extension to his permit of stay at Immigration, not a 'Visa' from a Thai Embassy. Apples and oranges. No you didn't. A visa cannot be extended.

Yeah, unfortunately neith Google nor Siam Legal issue permits of stay, which is why I posted Immigration orders first. These topics frequently pop up, and unless the child is firstly living with the person requesting the extension, anything else is immaterial.

Well as yet the OP hasn't stated his marital status, widowed, divorced, or if the child even lives with him, so unless you personally know him, you've assumed a lot by quoting under which circumstances your considered the 'Father' of a Thai child for an extension of permit of stay.

Firstly, to be regarded as the legitimate Father of a Thai child, the child must have been born in wedlock, otherwise you need to be legalised as the Father. The child must reside with you. Financial requirement of 40K per month, or 400K in a Thai bank on the day of application. 327-2557 (2014) - Criteria for extension ENG.pdf Section 2.18

Thais witness, a Thai Will. All Thais are registered in a Blue Tabien Baan regardless of ownership. A copy of the TB that they are registered in, which is not necessarily where they live.

Tabien Baan (House registration book)

I was issued a very comprehensive draft Will by a Thai lawyer (family friend) to complete any relevant sections. Apart from naming my Thai wife as both the beneficiary and the executor of my Thai Will, I also included, in the event we both simultaneously died, naming her two children as the beneficiaries and her sister as the executor. Last Will Blank Draft..odt It's important to have two Thai witnesses sign the Will, with copies of their TB and ID cards attached. I've also listed and left explicit instructions and details (Thai/English) for any executors named in my Will.

To be more succinct, a separate Will should be lodged in that different Country. You can correspond with a foreigner lawyer, draw up a Will, and sign online these days.

I should have mentioned previously, you can leave assets from one Country to a beneficiary in another, and that should be cross-referenced in the alternative Will sworn in the different Country. It becomes the responsibility of the appointed executor to then allocate assets as directed. I recommend all concerned beneficiaries are made aware of your requests and given copies of both Wills to avoid any later bickering.
