My first one year visa was a non-immigrant "O" and I had to leave every ninety days. I wasn't aware of it at the time, but I believe if you leave and return toward the end of your one year you can actually get almost 15 months stay in Thailand with that type of visa, as you'll get a new 90 day stamp when you re-enter. Maybe someone else can verify that.

So assuming financial requirements can be met i.e 40,000B per month based on marriage to thai can an extension of stay be applied for within first 90 days or is it better to wait until your last border run ?

I was thinking along the lines of obtaining NON 'O' in the UK and coming to LOS,entering on said visa

and applying for the extension before my 90 days were up.

Basically to save me the hassle of a border run.

Any advice chaps

So go MOFA Laksi for English to Thai translation would that be ok for uk marriage

cert to thai also ?

As wife wants to change name in passport.

Please advise if similar experience and i realise we have to change i.d card at local amphur

and was hoping MOFA translation and stamp would suffice for this also.

Hi,

This is my first post so be patient with me please.

We got married in the UK last year and will be going back to LOS in August,the wife wants to

change passport and i.d card to show new surname,old passport is only 2 years old and is bio-metric.

My question is do we get UK marriage cert translated to thai and then go to MOFA for stamp

and new passport and then go to her local amphur to change name on tambien bann or am i

missing something out.

Can anyone recommend a good translation shop near to uk embassy ?
