Anybody have any recent info on Marriage Visas in HCM?

Are they still issuing? What are the requirements?

Many thanks.

There is no visa called a marriage visa. You can apply for a multiple entry non-o visa based upon marriage to a Thai in HCMC.

Marriage certificate plus a copy, copies of your wife's house book registry and ID card signed by her. Your wife will need a to write a short letter requesting you be issued the visa.

The fee is $200 US.

A printed scan (or picture) of the docs required is accepted.  As far as financial docs, I'm not sure if it is a requirement,  but the HMC consulate took what I had (CDN and Thai bank statements), in the stack of docs I handed the consulate ladies.  All went smoothly, no issues.

Did it 2 weeks ago no financial docs needed

Yes it is pickup the next day.

When they say 2 days it includes the day you apply.

What does the letter from wife have to say?

It has to say please grant my husband a visa so he can come live with me here in Thailand.  (or words to those effect.)

In Thai or English?

Thai is best.

Is the visa granted one that requires you to leave Thailand every 90 days

Yes, unless you choose to get a 60 day extension at the IO.

It is possible to get 150 days if timed correctly.
