Thailand marriage visa (Non-Immigrant O)

The purpose 'to stay with Thai family residing in Thailand (more than 60 days)' covers spouses, children and parents of Thai nationals. Family visits of less than 60 days can use the Tourist Visa instead. A separate Non-O purpose covers people staying with non-Thai family members who live in Thailand, for example the family of a foreign worker.

Upload financial evidence of a monthly income of at least THB 40,000 or a current balance of THB 400,000 (bank statements for three months or a sponsor letter), the Thai family member's personal details such as ID card or passport, and proof of relationship such as a marriage certificate, birth certificate or adoption certificate.

The visa fee is set by the Thai embassy or consulate handling the application, shown in the e-Visa system and normally paid online when you submit it; a few missions, such as Islamabad, take payment at the embassy. It is not refunded in any case, including refusals caused by wrong names or e-mail addresses, so check your data before paying.

Your permitted stay is stamped by the immigration officer on arrival. Foreigners staying in Thailand for more than 90 days must report their address to the Immigration Bureau every 90 days, except for categories with special rules such as LTR holders, who report once a year. Extensions of stay are handled by Immigration Bureau offices inside Thailand.

Non-Immigrant visas are issued as entry visas valid three months; the permitted stay for the purpose (employment, studies or family) is then extended at the Immigration Bureau office responsible for your address, on the basis of the documents from your employer, school or family. Apply before your current permitted stay ends.
