I am in Khon kaen. although i can do it from Perth Aus Do you know of any difference in the requirements?

From Koen Khen you can get a multiple entry non-o visa in Savannakhet based upon marriage with no financial proof.

In Penang you would have show 400k baht in the bank to get one for marriage or being the parent of a Thai.

Is this a cse of having to fly out and then use the Uk PP to enter. 

You have to fly out and back to swap passports .

If you want a non-o visa based upon marriage you can get one in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam at the consulate there with no financial proof. If you entered Vietnam using your UK passport you would get a free 15 day visa exempt entry.

  • I got in Bangkok extension of stay for 1 year with multiple re-entry. Second time now. Required were: Birth certificate Mothers ID Tambien Ban Passport copies Letter from Bank proving funds 6

  • Only the child's birth certificate plus a copy and a copy of their house book registry is needed. Nothing from the mother will be needed.

  • Many thanks for the replies! I really did not know that this was an option for me until reading this forum yesterday

In addition to what is needed in Savannakhet they want a letter from your wife requesting they issue the visa to you.

You have to pay $200 US for the visa.

It actually works out as the same price in Suvannakhet.

5kbht + $30 VISA = $200 + VISA waiver.

And HCMC is far more fun.

Can you work on a non O visa based on having a kid?

 

Does it matter if your child is over 20?

It is possible get a  work permit and work with a non-o visa based upon being the parent of a Thai.

The is no rule that states a maximum age for a your child to apply for a work permit, visa or extension of stay.

Is there an up to date list of the paperwork requirements, i have just found a training centre that is in H.C.M.C. so that's another reason to go.

 

I found the application form.

 

It doesn't state the req'd docs.

i would assume i need marriage cert, passport,  wifes blue book(Signed), wifes id card (Signed). i would take 2 copies of each in colour

 

 

Anything more specific or official would be very helpful

Many thanks

That is correct but you also need a letter from your wife requesting they issue the visa. You only need one copy and they can be black and white.

Required documents are here. http://www.thaiembassy.org/hochiminh/en/services/2886/46902-Non-Immigrant-Visa-"O"---Accompanying-Th.html

Sorry to ask another question. 

 

What exactly is a "Certified" copy and who can do it?

That means your wife signing her documents.
