If they are living where his wife's house book is for a rental contract would not be needed. Many offices do not ask for the TM30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 New on my list. 13. Copy house book from residence (signed by owner and a signed copy of their ID Card, as this may not be the wife in some cases) or rental contract. 14: Copy of the letter from the MFA showing you were able to marry Also Samui immigrations want a new Kor ror 2 from the Amphur every year.

He is doing his extension at Chaeng Wattana. 13. You need to add. Not needed if living in your own home or condo. 14. Not all offices want that for an extension. Some only want it for the first extension. I think you mean the affirmation of permit to marry you got to register your marriage. Most offices want an updated Kor Ror 2. I have my wife get a new one very year. Not sure my office really want it but best to get one rather than finding out immigration has changed their mind and wanted one.

Twice now for multiple one year entry. Must be harder in LOS. Fee $250 NZ. This thread is about extenstions of stay which can only be obtained in Thailand and are NOT "VISAS" You have a visa which if single entry will only permit a stay of 90 days. A multiple entry visa allows, for a one year period, successive 90 day entries which require a person to leave the country at the end of each 90 day period.

skydiver77 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Having just got my 1yr extension based on marriage from Chaeng Wattana, I can confirm the 400k bank book requirement has indeed gone down to 2 months prior to application. The bank letter,[bt100] and book update, should be sorted on the same day as app. Easy enough due to most major banks being positioned in the basement. Due to the way the dice rolled, we fortunately ended up with the same friendly lady officer as per the last 4 yrs. Time spent sorting the stuff; 5 min. Followed by 10 min. chat with the Mrs. She was glad not to be on the 30 day extension counter. And no wonder after seeing some of the scruffy blimps waiting. She was fully aware she looked damned smart, in tailord uniform with knife edged creases. But back to the mundane stuff. CW require a min of 4 pics, preferably 5. Both of you should be in all pics. Outside house showing number / Inside yard etc / Living room / Kitchen / Bedroom, sitting on bed, showing open wardrobe with his and her clothes. I kid you not.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kunjay Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Just arrived in LOS on my first marriage visa, can somebody tell me the process from here on? Do I need to apply for anything or do I just run out my 9mths Or is it 12, before applying for for all of the above? Also do I need to physically do a border run every 3 mths or do I just go down to the local Amphur with the wife? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to leave the country every 90 day to get a new entry, You can apply for a one year extension of stay based upon marriage at an immigration office during the last 30 days of any of the 90 day entries you get from the visa. You do not have to wait for your visa to expire. An Amphoe has nothing to do with visas or extensions immigration handles them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mxyzptlk Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) OK have to ask seen this mentioned everywhere what is a Kor Ror 2 thanks new to all this Kor Ror 2 is a copy of the ledger entry that the amphur records (and you get a copy) when you get married. Kor Ror 3 is the colourful marriage certificate. Most immigration offices want an updated Kor Ror 2 which is not more than six months old which you can get each year at the amphur for 10 or 20 baht which you can include in your supporting documentation you apply for a new extension of stay based on marriage .

Sutty Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Thanks for explaining that so do I have to go to amphur where we registered marriage (chonburi) we will be living in Khon Kaen when the next renewal comes around???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrwebb8825 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Just redid our (my) non-O at Chochensao last week so not sure if it will happen for others but, we had to bring mom again as they were required to take a photo with 1 of the diligent immigration staff interviewing the 3 of us. They also required my wife and I to sign 2 forms, 1 stating that we were aware of the new penalties for overstay and the other stating that we understood how and why said visa (extension) could be nullified.
