elviajero,

How do I find out the nearest catchment area to me in Rasi Salai? Thanks for the info about the last 30 days of my NonO visa.

Joe,

The nearest immigration office to me is, I believe, in Sisaket or Ubon Ratchthani. It would certainly be much easier to drive there - only 1 hour away - to apply for the marriage extension.

I gather you are from Ubon. It would be nice to meet you if we travel to Ubon for this as I do not have many English speaking friends yet here in Thailand other than my Thai wife who lived with me in the USA for 12 years. At the same time I would not want to impose on you.

Thanks for the advice

On September 7, I came into Thailand on a 90 day, single entry, Non O visa. I want to apply for a multi entry 1 year marriage visa.  I think I have everything I need to do this and want to know:

May I come to the consulate in Mukdahan to apply or do I need to cross into Laos to go to the consulate in Savannakhet Should my wife come with me? How much is the fee? Do I need an appointment? Is there an application to fill out?

I will bring with me a copy of my Thai bank book(I have almost 500,00 baht on deposit since August 1), 2 passport size photos, photos of my wife and I, a copy of our marriage certificate in Thai and English, my wife’s Tabien Bahn, a map to our home in Isan, my passport and a copy of my passport, and a copy of my wife’s I.D. – is this all that I need to apply?

I have never made a visa run before and admit I am a little apprehensive.

Please advise as much as you can. Thank you.

The USA now has a passport card that you can purchase when you renew your passport, as I did this year. It is the same size as a driver's license or credit card. It has all the fancy holograms and such in the card and is laminated.

I carry this card; however, I reckon it might not hurt to carry a copy of your most recent visa entry stamp as well.

I have never been stopped for a passport check so I don't know the reaction I will have when one is requested.

Truly enjoy the video news everyday - great idea.

They cannot even keep the 'slow speed trains' on the track. I also wonder about the extent of the impact study.

That being said, if it is built well and impact to those along the route is positive(jobs, commerce, etc) and comes to fruition it would be a tremendous boon to Thailands' economy and tourism.

A couple days ago my wife found a snake crawling across our living room floor in Isaan. After having a friend relocate the snake she suggested a spirit house be placed near our home to keep them away.
