First get a 90 day O visa in the UK.

at the EMBASSY / CONSULATE

1. Copy of Household Registration of Thai Wife.

2. Copy of Identification Card of Thai Wife.

3. Copy of Marriage Certificate

Remark : Please Bring all Originals and copies

Then you need to apply for the extension of stay inside Thailand.. with around 30 days left on this visa.

List of Documents for Marriage Visa (Extension of stay based on marriage)

You will need the following:

1. Copy of Household Registration of Thai Wife.

2. Copy of Identification Card of Thai Wife.

3. Copy of Marriage Certificate

4. Statement of guarantee of pension income from your Embassy that you have an income of at least Baht 40,000 per month. Bring this letter and proof or letter of guarantee from a foreign employer, that you are a employee, salary, position, years worked along with letter from the Embassy or proof of this Thai income by you or your wife with the last three months of Phor Ngor Dor.1 (Personal Income tax form filed on a monthly basis) and Phor Ngor Dor.91 ( Filed on a yearly basis in March)

5.Copy of birth certificates of children. (if any)

11. A valid passport

12.If married overseas, the marriage certificate must be certified at the local Embassy of the country where the marriage took place, and it must be translated and certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This must then by certified by the District Office where the Thai spouse has their household registration.

13. If granted the extension of stay prior to 1st Oct 2006, the applicant can use the option of 400,000 Baht in the bank.

14. In the case of the foreigner who has entered Thailand and has been granted to stay temporarily before Oct 1st 2006, they may be eligible for an exemption to the new rule of 40K income per month but this is only on a case by case basis.

is it possible that i can changed my non'o' visa of 1yr for a marriage visa? I have a pension of more than 40k and married with a thai woman. And can i extend this marriage visa every year. Thanks for the answers in advance.

There is no such thing as a marriage visa. Yes you can get a 12 month extension every year.

See the Sunbelt post above your one.

You must have a multi entry non immigrant O visa valid for one year from date of issue? This allows up to 90 days stay. You can extend any stay, with 3 to 4 weeks remaining, for one year and do so every year upon presentation of proof of marriage/living together and family income of 40k baht per month.

thanks very much for the answers. I have now a non'o' retirement visa of one year. But i would like to changed this visa for the so called marriage visa. Is this possible? Thanks again for the answers.

Once again we don't know what you have as there is no one year non O retirement visa. There is a multi entry O visa valid for one year and there is a non immigrant O-A visa which you obtain in your home country on the basis of retirement and allows a one year permitted to stay stamp on entry.

But suspect what you have is an extension of stay for one year, based on retirement, and issued by Immigration in Thailand. If that is what you have you can change the reason to marriage when it is next do for renewal.

For visas only copies, other than marriage certificate, are normally required. In home country likely the marriage certificate itself will be sufficient but it is best to directly contact the Consulate you plan to use as local requirements are often subject to change on short notice.
