I still have the same bike as I did 20 years ago. I can't feel sorry for them; actually, I believe they all owe it to themselves.

I believe that Thai law applies to everyone in Thailand . For that reason alone Thais should be given cards as well . According to my opinion .....Just plain discrimination this one !

Hello all ,
Does a Non-o visa holder married to a Thai , returning to Thailand by air using a re-entry permit , have to report to Thai immigration within 24 hours after arrival ? I have tried to find the answer to this question googleing this but it is all not clear to me . Thanks .

Married to a Thai , does an immigration office really need birth certificates of any children ? I believe a birth certificate of a child is only necessary in case of applying for a non O based on being the parent of a Thai child , right ?
Why did immigration ask for the original marriage certificate ? I read on the immigration website that they only need proof of a relation , being married , so that would be either the original one from abroad OR the Thai version . Not both . Can anyone explain that to me ?

So , is this photoshop announcement made by immigration this way legal ? I can not imagine that . All visa types ? When was this announced ? What date ? Could be there for months already . Now as a long stayer on a non-o marriage visa I am supposed to visit the immigration's website every day for sudden changes ? I don't think so . Why was I not informed by mail , immigration has my address .

Their birth certificate should not required since they are 22 years old.
A birth certificate is not shown on the immigration website other than when applying for an extension based upon being the parent of a Thai.
But there are several offices that want the birth certificate as additional proof your marriage is real.
Thank you Ubonjoe .

Hi all . I am married to a Thai woman . Been here more than 13 years . We have a child with Thai nationality aged 22 . A long time ago , for some reason I think , Thai immigration
did not need our child's birth certificate to be added to our file . I can not remember when or why since i have been subjected to a lot of little annoying changes . One example of this is after being here on a translated marriage certificate from overseas ( where we got married ) for many years , immigration suddenly decided to no longer accept this . They wanted a Thai marriage certificate and sent me and my wife out not willing to offer any assistance . I remember their words after I asked them how to give them what they want , " we don't care , we just want a Thai marriage certificate " . A long story short we managed to get hold of a Thai marriage certificate in the end with only 2 days a valid visa left .
Back to our child , last time with extending the non-o visa , immigration again suddenly asked for the birth certificate of our child aged 22 . We said we do not have that because we can not remember ever being asked for that . I told immigration to have a look in our file because surely there would not be any birth certificate to be found since we did not have to hand that in . Their excuse was that there are too many files in the room back so they refused to take a look . ...bla bla bla. and so on...After half an hour refusing to leave the office my wife got them to accept our child's Thai identity card .
My question , is it really necessary , since our child is 22 , to hand in a birth certificate or a Thai identity card of whatever other document . We wish our child not to be subject to their erratic way of handling visa extensions .
Thank you .

Umm, he has Thai son. Think he could get non o based on that. Think cut off age for dependent is 20?
However op might have problems with other aspects. Certainly could not obtain non o based on retirement due to financials.
He is in difficult spot I'm afraid.

find a lawyer ...you already have proof you are married so they should not bother you asking for more proof....how much proof more proof can they ask for. They are just probing to see how much they can bother and stress you .It should be stopped directly or they will continue giving you a hard time .

Perhaps Thaivisa could start a legal aid insurance group specialized in visa matters . With a monthly fee of 100 baht a month contribution for each participant millions will come in each month to pay for lawsuits ....etc .

I have had the same problem as you have . You go to the nearest Ministry of Foreign Affairs . Songkhla I believe that is. Explain them your problem . Give them your translated marriage certificate and tell them you want a Thai marriage certificate . At the Ministry they will probably tell you that they cant help you . After some utmost poIite pressure from my side I was given some sort of statement , an excerpt that I am married to a Thai ( 27 plus years btw ) . I handed that in at the local town hall in Songkhla and 20 minutes later I had an official Thai marriage certificate in my hands . Next day back at immigration . Handed in the Thai marriage certificate . Did not need hand in my translated marriage certificate since they considered that not valid enough anymore . Done . Save your original translated marriage certificate carefully . Thai immigration will probably ask for that again when you apply again for the 3rd time for your visa . Just to piss you off. You can fix that all at your local police station . That is what I did . Good luck .

I would not recommend anyone coming here . I stay on a marriage visa . Been here around 15 years . Came here when my Thai wife and Thai son when he barely could walk . He had to fight his way through education , completed his Mattayom not long ago and is on an international university now . And he got in not because he had such excellent teachers at school . That came from him and I doing what those " teachers " refused to do . To educate .
Fifteen years of troubles with immigration . Every time there hassles with having to hand in extra non required documents . I been asked how many times a week I have sex with my wife . The freaking brutality . Been asked to hand in old passports . For what ? They refused to tell me . The abuse of power . Translation of my foreign marriage certificate refused suddenly , having to go head over heels to some ministry of foreign affairs to get a Thai marriage certificate with the expiration date of my visa near . Maps of the way to my home not good enough anymore . Messing with my file , altering it .
Asylum seekers get a better treatment than guys here bringing in money and good will here . My son fully agrees with me . This country doesn't like Farangs . When he finishes uni we are out of here .
Done with the never changing bull .Below I see a link to some article...Thai immigration reveals new requirements for.... There we go again and that raises a question I would like to ask . I am on a marriage visa . 400,000 on the bank . In case immigration ever raises that amount let's say from 400 to 500 thousand are guys like me exempted ?
good luck everybody .
