I see it requires photo's of both of you at front entrance of house with nouse number showing. Is this true??? I am staying in an apartment and married and now want to apply for O Visa but don't actually own a house so what do I do? I also heard the Phu Yai has to confirm we are married????? Any advise.

Many thanks in advance.

This is for extension of stay from immigration; not for a Consulate issues visa.

Stand outside with apartment number in view - just a show of where you live. If witness are asked it is to say you live together as husband and wife. That is also why they normally want another photo of clothing hung together so help support the living together.

Thanks for this Lopburi.

Usually use the 40,000 baht a month route, but last year was advised by immigration to use the 400,000 in the bank account route, can this be in a fixed term deposit for say 11 months as i dont need to use the money ?

Normal fixed deposit is usually accepted (the kind where you deposit money and can withdraw at any time with only a loss of interest). What is not accepted are the non cash funds that are sometimes touted for higher interest and not cash backed.
