Non O Multiple Visa In Kl?

[steve19836]

Visa is up shortly and still umming and arrrrghhing where to go. I am on my 3rd Cambodia next month and I will then go somewhere to obtain a non O multiple entry based on my marriage to a Thai. I know this is easy to get in your home country but I don't want to pay the airfare all the way back there if possible. A flight to Malaysia is much cheaper if they issue them without silly requests like 800,000 in an account i've heard. Anyone know if I can just show up with passport, photos, wifes id card, family book and fee and get the non O MULIPLE anywhere in Asia. In our bank we have funds but no where near 800,000. Take away 700,000 and that's a closer figure hahaha. Being honest. Can anyone help?

Cheers.

If you are married to a Thai you can get a non-O visa based on marriage and yearly extension of stay if you can show an income of you and your wife together of 40,000 baht a month. The income doesn't have to be in Thailand, but than it has to be certified by your embassy. If you meet that requirement you might be able to ask for an extension of stay. It depends a little bit on what kind of visa you are now in Thailand, as on a visa exempt entry and tourist visa you need at least 22 days remaining will you be allowed to apply.

For a non-O multiple you need to show your marriage certificate and a letter from your wife and photo copy of her ID asking for a visa for you. The money you need in the bank will in general not be more than 20,000. If you can show an up to date bankbook that will be nice. Not sure if they will issue multiple non-O in Asia.

KL currently seems your best bet, no financial requirements but they may like a letter from your Missus inviting you to stay.

I've always take my other half with me so no issue, she seems to spend more time talking to the staff than I do.

Staff are generally friendly and helpfull

EDIT. If you can meet the income requirements then, as mario suggests, the option of sorting your extension whilst in Thailand is a good option

[steve19836]

I am aware of the extension of stay for a year but no I don't meet the requirements to get that. So KL are issueing visas with no financial proof right? If so thats excellent news and i'll go there. Is it the main Thai embassy in KL i'm heading for Crossy? Any good place to stay~>

As I noted in a PM to steve:-

Should be no problem, take with you:-

Passport photos

Copy of wifes ID card (signed and dated by her)

Copy of wifes house book (again signed and dated)

Original and copy of marriage cert (both of you sign and date it).

Copy of your PP (data page).

A letter may or may not be asked for, get your lady to write a quick note inviting you, if they don't ask for it don't offer, same with any bank stuff. It can't hurt to have them but we don't want to give them ideas

The embassy is on Jalan Ampang, nearest LRT station is Ampang Park (NOT Ampang), the embassy is a few minutes walk. If you get a taxi and they don't know the embassy, it's not far from the British High Commission (which they certainly will know).

As for accomodation, Google is your friend, lots of cheap and reasonable places around Jalan Petaling / Chinatown, personally I use the Crown Princess it's near the embassy but most definately not cheap.

Drop off of documents is from 9.30AM, get there early, they open the gates at 9 and you can sit inside in the shade filling your forms (which they give you). Collect next morning at 11 ish, you collect your passport from the gatehouse so not much queueing.

Unlike Penang you really don't need an agent, it's a piece of cake.

Anyone got any further useful info?

I went there fairly recently for multiple entry "O" visa, you might find some useful info in this report :-

Hiya All,

I'm off to Malaysia on Sunday and was wondering if I should go to KL instead of Penang. I am married with a 2 year old son. I have all documents supporting except showing the 400k in a thai bank account. My question being is it possible to get a one year non - o without showing financial accounts or bank books.

Thanks for any input

It is possiable but not 100% sure. It is best to have some financial paperwork, even if only in the 10's of thousands. I would go to KL.
