If fully vaccinated a ATK covid 19 test is not required. You only need a certificate showing at least 2 vaccinations.

The test has to be done by a professional that would do a certificate confirming the test 48 hours before arrival in Laos.

I more than agreed with Ubonjoe. You need the proof u have the 2 vaccine short minimum. I have done the border run at Nong Khai 2 months ago. Better be safe than sorry. Is all up to you.

I strongly agreed with ubonjoe. Print out the hard copy of your vaccination cert. The mor phrom app failed on my Thai wife mobile when she tried logging in to show the IO at the Lao border. My wife was told to pay 200 baht for not able to produce the vacc. cert.

Just apply for a Non Immigrant O-A Visa (1 year) and leave after your 6 months.

Just remember to do your 90 day report.

Thank you...

Hi, I'm going to apply a marriage visa in Thailand soon. I am from Singapore and I am bringing my old age father he is 87 years of age to live with me in Udon Thani for his remaining years. What type of visa should I apply for him. Much Appreciate for any good advice. Thank you.

Good luck NorthernRyland.

I managed to open a bank account with Bangkok Bank. A big thank you to Ubonjoe for his advice on the previous post.

Just wanted to share on opening a Thai bank account issue. I have arrived in Thailand on 13 Oct under the 30 days visa exemption. I went to the Immigration office in Udon the next day to do my TM30 reporting. I share with the IO that I am going to marry my Thai gf and needed to open a bank account to deposit the 400k bath. The IO was really helpful, she returned my passport with the new additional 2 months extension of stay and a letter to be given to the bank for the opening bank account. I paid 2k BAHT for all the process.

Hi BritTim, thanks for the info.

Hi Ubonjoe, thanks very much for the info.

Hi, I need an advise on marriage visa. I am currently on a 30 days tourist visa exemption. Arrived in Udon Thani on 14 Oct after my 7 days quarantine in BKK. I went to the IMO in Udon to do my TM30 and at the same time ask if I could extend my TR visa when it expired on 04 Nov. I was amazed when they extend another 2 months visa when I told them I am here to marry my fiancee of 6 years. The IO even prepared a letter to allow me to open a Thai bank account for the deposit of 400k requirement for the marriage visa. Do I need to leave Thailand to apply for the marriage visa and return or can I do it during my 3 months stay here. Appreciate if someone can guide me through this. Thank you.

Never fly AirAsia again. They are prompt in cancelling yr flight. They will never refund you but give you a credit account instead. Poor customer service !

The ThailandPlus does not work on my android phone either. Anyway I have arrived Suvarnabhumi airport on 06 Oct. from Sin and the no one ask to show the apps when arrive and after leaving the airport. What matter most is be sure you have all the documents required printed out to avoid delay or denied. Happy travel.

I am using Oppo Android phone and able to download the ThailandPlus apps but not able to open the apps. I even delete and re download, still not able to open. Does anyone have this issue. Will be flying to BKK early October and need to get the apps fix. Any advise will be appreciated.

Hi travellers, I am flying to Bangkok from Singapore on the first week of October. I have managed to download the ThailandPlus apps but not able to open the apps. Is this apps allow you to open only in Thailand ? Has anyone face this issue and care to share. Many thanks.

My ASQ hotel emailed me yesterday, have booked 14 day quarantine on 22nd October, asked to email them my 2 vaccine certificate, said if it is 10 day or 7 they will refund difference.

I hope they will refund me too... Keep finger cross.

I have make the full payment of 14 days to the quarantine hotel in Bangkok in October. Will the hotel refund me the difference if the quarantine reduce from 14 days to 7 days finalize ?

I have went through a lot of obstacle to get my COE approved.

1) Change of 45 days visa exemption to 30 days by the Thai Embassy Singapore.

2) Airline cancelled my flight. No refund, got to purchase new ticket from other airlines.

3) Submit a new flight details to the ASQ hotel Bangkok and request for a confirmation letter for my COE.

All this happened during my COE was pre-approved.

Hope you guys don't have to go through all this in yr country.

I got my COE from the Thai Embassy Singapore to fly on the 6th October. Will be doing my 14 days quarantine in hotel BKK. Hope you guys able to get the COE in your designated country. I know is not easy which I have went through. Good luck.

Don't forget before you can get married, you have to go to you Embassy and a certificate or declaration that you are free to marry, so I would do that before you head to Udon Thani if you haven't done it yet.

Hi dsj, I have all the requirement documents ready from my country. I just need to find a translator company in Udon to do the documents into Thai. Should be spending quite a bit for all the papers work here. Thanks for the sharing.

Most offices will not do the the 60 day covid 19 extension until after you have gotten the 30 the day extension.

Thanks very much again. Hope the IO will approve my 30 days extension. Cheers.

After you get married you can apply for a non-o visa based upon marriage to a Thai at immigration. It will need to be done 15 days before your 30 day permit to stay ends or the 30 day extension of it. You will need 400k baht in a Thai bank in your name only on the day you apply.

Then during the last 30 days of the 90 days the visa will allow you can apply for a one year extension of stay. The 400k baht will have to be in the bank for 2 months on the day you apply.

If you need more time to do the visa application you could apply for a 60 day extension to visit your new wife.

Thanks Ubonjoe, one last question, as mention I will be on a 30days tourist visa and 14 days to serve for the quarantine in ASQ hotel Bangkok. I have left only 15 days to prepare my marriage paper. I am afraid this 15 days is insufficient for me to do all the marriage paper work progress due to the way the Thai works. Will l be allow to apply for a 60 days covid extension which will be cease on the 27 Nov rather than the normal 30 days

Hi, I am new in this forum and I need your gracious advise. I am travelling to Udon Thani on a 30 days tourist visa exempt to marry my fiancee of 6 years in October next month. I looking into applying for a marriage visa extension of 12 months. Should I leave Thailand after my 30 days tourist visa expired and apply the marriage visa in my country or I can do it here since l am already here ? I would be much appreciate if someone can share and guide me through this. Many thanks.
