NorthernRyland Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 I'm going to apply for a non-o in the US for the first time and I have a question regarding one of the requirements. From https://thaiconsulatela.thaiembassy.org/en/publicservice/non-o-family-member they state: Quote 7. The letter from your spouse indicated that you both are still married and he/she acknowledges of your visit. I think it may just be a written/typed letter which states we are married and she's inviting me but I'm not 100% certain it's that informal. Does anyone have any example of what they want? Otherwise the requirements are actually much lower than all the stuff I had to submit in country so that's a pleasant surprise. Thanks!
ubonjoe Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 It is basic statement written and signed by your wife confirming you are still married and request they issue the non-o visa to you. It can be hand written in Thai. 1 1
ifmu Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 i have seen comments about going to the amphur and getting a cert stating the same (in addition to said letter )
JCP108 Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 I had this happen with my most recent e-visa. Wife wrote the letter in Thai though neighbor translated it into English. Didn't have that requirement was my visa before that. It's new.

I don't recall any embassy asking for one other than one nearby official consulate for a multiple entry non-o visa.

For reference here's one she found for the UK embassy which has an additional "will return" portion which I don't believe the LA embassy requires as they didn't ask for a return ticket. It's in English though which doesn't make sense to me. I would expect it to be something like: "My name is XXX and I am currently married to XXX. I hereby request he be issued a visa for purpose of returning to Thailand. Signed XXX."
