Popular Post MartinL Posted November 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2021 Renewed my Marriage Extension (No. 12) at KK IO yesterday Money-in-the-Bank method. A bit of a wait but, once our turn arrived, all went smoothly despite a small extra requirement. Previously, they only wanted copies of passport data page, original visa and entry stamp associated with it, current extension and last re-entry permit. This time, they wanted copies of data page and ALL pages with any sort of stamp on them. All dealt with without any fuss (IO even copied and printed the pages while we sat there), quick signature and we were away. Checking documents took less than 15 minutes. List of Marriage Extn.

Havenstreet1940 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 With the list of documents required for the marriage extension, I note you have stated 400K in the bank for three months. My understanding is 2 months. Is this a typo or do Khon Kaen have different requirements to the normal rules? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been 2 months for all extensions for a lot of years now. Only retirement extensions had the 60 days for the first extension and then 3 months after that until March of 2019 when the changed it to 2 months for all extension applications. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerjo Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I changed earlier this month from marriage to retirement. Saved me about 140 print outs, two ink cartridges,a trip to the amphur and another trip back to KK to pick up passport. The IO was also happy with the decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, my bad, I always transfer my annual survival amount over 3 months beforehand and use those funds for my extension, better safe than sorry, than confused and in trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They copied my pages - 5 of 'em, A4 - and asked for ...................... 0฿ (Zero baht), which I was quite happy to give them. Even got the 100฿ change from the 2000฿ I gave them to pay for the 1900 ฿ extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seajae Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) we had to do the same thing for the renewal last week in Surat Thani, every passport page but only 2 months for the money plus one month waiting for the approval, only took us an hour all up as well Edited December 19, 2021 by seajae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're wrong too. Same IO we've dealt with a number of times over the years. Always offers any change and occasionally she gets to keep it.
