OP, the letter (eg sample from Mark above) can be hand written. Are we sure HCMC is issuing multiple entries? Haven't seen report for some time. Savannakhet does. https://aseannow.com/topic/1271229-invitation-letter-from-spouse-type-o-visa/

Not area specific. Your immigration office for unknown reason overlooked that requirement. Wife needs to attend. For further extensions not required

Jomitien does not require most recent TM47 however if you have that then include it in your docs.

Good summary. Without the funds seasoned for 2 months may need to accept single entry non O offer

Nonetheless this is required for extension based on support of Thai child. The OP will realize this when applies for 12 month extension.

Bickering and off topic posts. Thread closed. Again

The OP, will apply for 12 months extension based on support of Thai child. Direct your advice to the OP if you have any. Where did I mention requirement to live together?

Some reports that without seasoned funds obtained a non O marriage (single entry) as multi requirement not satisfied.

TM30 is obtained at CW if you plan to obtain it in person

OP, any problem could arise with the airline at departure. Thailand does not have 6 month rule https://aseannow.com/topic/1291703-entering-thailand-with-less-than-6-month-valid-passport/

Being named in the birth certificate isn’t enough. You would need to apply at the local court" ubonjoe attached link to what's required to be "legalized father"

Vientiane requires and appointment This attached thread link shows process time and appointment link. It's book well in advance. Savannakhet recently moved to appointment requirement.. Seems for the multi many folk go to Savannakhet.

The 20 yr old max is for non Thai. No age limit for Thai child https://aseannow.com/topic/1114006-maximum-thai-child-age-to-get-a-visa-non-o-based-on-thai-child/

OP, you have good advice above and the OP in that link provides very detailed report. You will required money in bank account 400k and an appointment and no will not be done in a day. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321369-1-year-multiple-entry-based-on-marriage-savannakhet-feb-28th-2024-report/

This topic is completely off the rails. A simple thread to inform visa exempt entries are currently 30 days. In other threads of current border bounce that land borders also remain at 30 days. Thread temporarily locked

Thinking now 2 months for multi. OP in this next thread suggests 400b for 2 months https://aseannow.com/topic/1319238-1-year-multi-non-o-based-on-marriage-savannakhet-jan-2024-report/ Here is thread with very detailed OP. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321369-1-year-multiple-entry-based-on-marriage-savannakhet-feb-28th-2024-report/

https://aseannow.com/topic/1313692-question-about-60-day-extension-of-stay-based-on-marriage/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1130123-re-60-day-extension-to-visit-your-wife/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1328568-multi-non-o-to-60-day-extension-refresh/

Some off topic posts removed. It has been established that currently visa exempt entry provides 30 day stamp. Nothing to see here.

The OP gave no indication of why the change. Also did not mention divorce in the picture. Granted some married guys over 50 opt for extensions based on retirement, however I certainly would not refer to it as a no brainer. Retirement requires 800k 2 months prior and 3 month post application. Not below 400k other months. The lost opportunity cost is not insignificant. BTW, OP....if seasoning of funds is an issue obtain 60 day extension to visit wife if you have not already used that.

Funds must be in bank for 2 months prior to application. The 30 days you refer to is under consideration period for extension based on marriage.

The 800k needs to be in bank for two months prior to day of application. Why change from based on marriage?

Has been covered in thread. Thread closed

Thinking that form is CW specific. Not sure form wise what Jomitien use. BTW: Thinking one COR and a photocopy should cover your needs. Immigration will tell you that you need 2.

Agree. 3 pages of pass the parcel. Thinking chill pill in order. Personally if I had up coming entry via air or border bounce for visa exempt entry then just assume the stamp will provide 30 day permission of stay.
