Thanks, Bigt3116! My 400K has been on my Thai account, untouched, for about 10 years now 😀, so I should be fine. Thanks, DrJack54! Thank you all for the great news!! I've stayed in Thailand for about 10 years on a Non-O visa, which I extent yearly. Due to my wife's overseas assignment I wasn't able to extend this year, left Thailand to join her overseas on the day my Non-O expired, and returned two months later on a visa exempt. I literally just found out (Jan 10) about the e-visa when I tried to book an appointment at the Thai consulate in Vientiane. It kinda freaked me out, as everything is so unclear. I thought I had to fly back home to apply for a Non-O visa. Lets just hope Samut Prakan immigration office is willing to help.

Let me get this straight. You CAN apply for your initial Non-O visa based on marriage at your local Immigration office within Thailand??? That's the first time I'm hearing this. I was always under the impression that you need to apply for your first Non-O visa from a Thai consulate abroad.
