Seeking clarification - Thai/USA dual citizen, married to USA citizen...how to bring her over


Recommended Posts

I have been attempting to research this but keep coming up with weird information and was hoping I could find an answer here.

Me - Born and raised in the USA....36 years old, I just received my Thai birth certificate and will be going to Thailand in 3 months to get my ID card, house registration and passport(may have to come back to the USA for that)...at which point I'm fully credentialed.

I am married to Her - 33 year old USA citizen.

I am considering moving to Thailand to work on a PhD, and perhaps staying permanently as a citizen that is the easy part....I just don't leave.

Here is where I am having confusion. Being that we are married, what visa do I need for her so that she does not have to leave the country every few months, or finagle a work/student visa. I keep seeing things that says she needs to be in Thailand for 3 years, but I think that is for permanent residency. I guess what I'm asking, how do I go about getting our USA marriage acknowledged by the Thai government so she has ease of stay (and work).

Thanks so much!

When you have your Thai ID, house registration book(blue book), your wife can apply for a non o marriage visa. She doesn't need proof of income since the husband is a Thai citizen. It is relatively simple and she just goes once a year for the extension and reports to immigration every 90 days.
