can someone pls give complete info for non o visa?it will be a great help.thanks

Upon what bases would you be getting the visa? Marriage to a Thai, Retirement and etc.

Are you asking about a visa from an embassy or consulate or an extension of stay from immigration? Single or Multiple entry visa?

Requirements would depend on what Country and what Consulate you applied for one.

Basically having a Thai family or retirement are the usual things.

As ubonjoe has suggested, there are about a dozen different reasons that fall under o visa category. But not all embassies/consulates issue all types. And not all interpret the requirements the same way.

Edit: this link has a list of different reasons for "o" category: http://www.mfa.go.th/main/en/services/123/15398-Issuance-of-Visa.html

Going back through your posting history it appears you are asking about getting a non-o as your husbands dependent.

If your husband has obtained an extension of stay for working you can go to any nearby embassy or consulate and apply for a single entry visa by showing copies of his passport including his extension of stay stamp and your marriage certificate to prove your relationship.

If the marriage certificate is not in English or Thai it would have to be translated to Thai and the translation be certified by the Ministry of foreign affairs.

After getting the non-o you could then get an extension of stay as his dependent at immigration.

thanks ubon! you mean there's no need for me to go to laos?because at the same time we badly need to stay here, our son will be having a heart surgery soon and the situation is so difficult for us.

You will have to go to a embassy or consulate to get the non-o visa first unless you have a non immigrant visa now.

You can get an extension under clause 2.25 (2) of Thai Police Order 777/2551 while you child is under medical treatment. Most large hospital are aware of the requirements.

2.25 In the case of receiving medical treatment, attending rehabilitation, or taking care of a patient: Each permission shall be granted for no more than 90 days.

(1) Must have been confirmed and requested by a physician of the hospital providing said treatment with full explanation about the illness, period of treatment, and the physician’s opinion that the illness is an impediment to travel.

(2) In the case of taking care of a patient, the applicant must have been confirmed and requested by a physician of the hospital providing the examination and treatment or by an embassy or consulate.

(3) In the case of caretakers who are not the parents, spouse, children, adopted children, or spouse’s children, permission shall be granted for no more than one person.

I see. Does it matter if i came from the Philippines?or same procedure and requirements?

Doesn't matter.

It is the same for every body.

thanks!:-) i will keep all of you updated. thanks again!

Hi there! My good news is that I already have a non-o visa. So its been a big relief for me and my husband since the heart surgery of our 10 month old baby is getting closer. I deeply appreciate all your replies from my bucketful of questions ...it is truly a big help.

I gave birth here but then I currently found out that my son is not considered as a Thai citizen. I wanted to know the laws about this. And I want to know if there are any agencies or foundations that can help my baby for the cardiac treatment.

Thanks again.

If neither parent of your son has Thai citizenship your son is not a Thai citizen.

Anybody there? Is it possible to shift from non-o visa to a working visa?what are the requirements?thanks

If you can a work permit with the non-o visa you can then apply for an extension of stay based working, You cannot change visa classes.

But if you have an extension of stay as a dependent you got from immigration you will not be able to change the reason for your extension to working until your current extension ends.
