Whether you are newly married or seeking to extend your stay in Thailand, our team of immigration lawyers will guide you through the process, making it as smooth and stress-free as possible.

What is the Marriage Visa (Non-Immigrant O Visa)?

The Non-Immigrant O Visa (Marriage Visa) is issued to foreign nationals who are legally married to a Thai citizen. It allows the foreign spouse to reside in Thailand for an extended period and can be renewed on an annual basis. This visa provides a pathway for long-term residency in Thailand without the need for constant visa runs or other short-term solutions.

Eligibility and Requirements

To apply for a Marriage Visa, the foreign spouse must meet specific eligibility criteria and provide the following documentation:

  • Proof of Marriage: A legally recognized marriage certificate from Thailand or another country, which may need to be translated and legalized.
  • Valid Passport: The applicant must have a passport with at least six months of validity remaining.
  • Proof of Financial Stability: The foreign spouse must demonstrate financial security, either by:
    • Having a Thai bank account with a balance of at least 400,000 THB, or
    • A monthly income of at least 40,000 THB (supported by documentation such as salary slips or pension statements).
  • Police Clearance and Medical Certificate: In some cases, a police clearance from the foreign spouse’s home country and a medical certificate may be required.
  • Additional documents that may be requested by immigration officers on a case-by-case basis, depending on the applicant’s circumstances.

Visa Extensions and 90-Day Reporting

The Marriage Visa is typically valid for one year and can be renewed annually, provided that the financial and relationship requirements continue to be met. Holders of a Marriage Visa must also report to the local immigration office every 90 days to confirm their current address. At Specter CNC & Partners Co., Ltd., we assist clients in handling all aspects of the renewal and reporting process, ensuring compliance with Thai immigration regulations.

Changing Visa Status

For foreign nationals who initially entered Thailand on a different visa type (such as a Tourist Visa), our legal team can assist in changing the visa status to a Non-Immigrant O Visa (Marriage Visa). This process requires careful preparation and submission of documents, and we ensure that all requirements are met for a smooth transition.
