Popular Post johng Posted July 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2021 Which immigration office will you be using ? they all have their own small interpretations as to what is required. from my notes Jomtien March 2021 2 x copies of 1. TM7 application form signed both sides. 2. passport face page 3. visa page 4. previous visa extension page/s 5. TM6 6. Marriage Kor Ror 3 both sides on one page 7. !!! new for 2021 must go to the Amphur office and get updated Kor Ror 2 must do this every year from now on !!! 8. ID Wife ( front back same page) 9. House book ( showing current address) 10.Bank statement confirming 400,000 + in Thai bank for at least 2 month's (60 days) + a transaction on that day and if the book isn't updated for a while during the last 3 months and book doesn't show when top up occurred then also need a statement showing the last 3 months Bank statement must be from that day 11. photos 4 different on 2 A4 pages you and wife at home, 1 must clearly show you including the home/house/condo number. ( this year did 4 photos on one page no raised eyebrows) 12. Map to house 2 sets of everything sign every page ( blue ink best) except your wife's and witness ID/house book which they must sign. They will come to interview at home,and want to interview a "witness" who must be Thai but not a close relative 2 copies of their ID and house book..(no need to take witness to immigration office) 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used 2x printed colour photos per A4 page (I also took a copies of 4 photos, 1 per A4 page as I read immigration ‘could’ be difficult about this - they weren’t and accepted 2 photos per A4 page). In Bangkok they are less likely to want to visit your house... Edited July 17, 2021 by richard_smith237 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuchulainn Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 For the past 2 years, CW have accepted a bank letter dated the day before extension. So..... * did the IO actually look at the letter date? * did they notice the date and not care? * is the day before "set in stone" and will be accepted? Your guess is as good as mine!!

pizzachang Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I did mine last week, using the monthly deposit method. To the above lists, I had to add ( CM province) copies of original Thai marriage certificate, copies of every stamped page in my passport, copies of last 90 day, and the map must be hand drawn. The IO required ( in the financial portion) a summary letter from my bank, a 12 month print out from the bank, and copies of every page in my bank book and the update on the day of application for this extension. My wife and I had to wait about 45 minutes for a "higher-up" confirmation that it was ok for the IO to make a copy of one passport page to replace the one that I made - one that I made did not show the opposite blank page fully ( a bit lopsided and I included it because I assumed being blank was not pertinent) IO was gracious about pointing this out and making the new copy. Be warned, any passport page should be copied at a % that allows full view. My consideration period will be longer than in the past 12 extensions - I return in mid Sept. equaling 45 or so days, rather than 30. All Immigration personnel were polite and professional. I would have been finished much faster, had I had everything in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrmaanda Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 To get an extension based on marriage, is it necessary to have entered Thailand with a visa, or is it OK to have come in with the 30-day visa exemption? I am a British national currently in France with a visa extension valid until 26 September and a re-entry permit, but I have strong reasons for not wanting to come back to Thailand until November. So I would be grateful to know if it is possible or greatly disadvantageous to come to Thailand with no visa and apply for an extension based on marriage? (If it's impossible, I'll have to come in September) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Requirements for the visa application is here. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/6.pdf Then during the last 30 days of the 90 days apply for a one year extension based upon marriage to a Thai.

Wbr Roobaa01 we never go to the immigration with the Kor Ror 2 from the amphur, but this year was the first one. when we presented the original marriage certificate (colour printed) and the B&W copy, and the Kor Ror 2 from Amphur, the IO said IF we have the original marriage certificate with us, then the Kor Ror 2 is not required.

jrmaanda Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Thank you very much Ubonjoe. In that case, please could you possibly confirm that I would be right in concluding that the only disadvantages of starting again from entering with no visa (versus returning to Thailand before my extension expire) are (1) double the bureaucracy, and (2) that I would have to buy a return airticket to enter. Or is there anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is there anything else? It requires 2 trips to immigration for the non-o visa and then the normal 2 trips to immigration for the extension. To enter visa exempt you would not need a return ticket. You can get a one way or onward ticket to anywhere to show the airline. If you return using a re-entry permit you do not need a onward or return ticket and no need to apply for a new visa.

DrPhibes Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Anyone have a recent list of what Chiang Mai is requiring for extension based on marriage using seasoned money these days. How early before extension expires to apply, 400k 60 days before extension expiration or before putting in application, can't touch until extension granted still correct, etc... Thanks in advance!
