The immigration laws can be a bit challenging to understand sometimes. Is it still possible for a foreign spouse to apply for/get registered in the "yellow book" ?? This is supposed to be the farang version of the "blue book" for Thai citizens. I'm over 50 & my Thai husband is over 60. We're newlyweds, there will be no children between us. He has a son from a baby momma & not friendly. My biggest concern is that he might pass over before I do & I'd suddenly find myself a widow being deported. I've been unable to locate the immigration laws that I had read online a number of years ago. But it seemed that after 3 consecutive marriage visas, the spouse could apply for the "yellow book" & once approved, they could not be forced to leave if widowed, that instead there would be a "widows certificate" that could be used to continue the marriage visas. Alternately, could I apply for a Thai passport after 5 to 8 years of marriage that would be a doorway to dual citizenship?? Just wondering if I should even consider the marriage visa option or just go with a retirement visa. But retirement visa doesn't lead to a "yellow book" or dual citizenship. TIA
