Visa advice for brit marrying a local please?

Followers

February 13, 200323 yr

Can anyone advise me on what visa/residency requirements there are for a Brit planning to marry a local in Thailand please? Family locally keep telling me not to worry but a) I'm English and the whole explanation of legal requirements via Anglo/Thai phone calls is still a bit of a problem.

It would be a 'mare to get back thinking I'm getting married and discover I need a document that's still in London! Any help appreciated, thanks.

Welcome to Thailand Expat Forum, Kathryn. You can marry a Thai with just a Tourist visa, if you get a Non-Immigrant visa type "O" before you travel, it can be extended one year at the time. This has been discussed before in this forum:

Please read this thread, and if you have further questions, you are welcome here!

Wongamat - New open mall

jas007 · Sunday at 04:19 AM2 days

For anyone living in Wongamat Beach, there's a new open mall being constructed across the street from the Centara Grand Mirage resort. It's supposed to open later this year and will contain restaurants, cafes, a grocery store, etc. With any luck, the grocery store will be good. And the area could use a few more restaurants.

Abridged from source. Source in title. You may not sympathise with the Elbit four’s methods.
