Hi again all, I'm on the non o marriage visa which actually expired yesterday, even though I tried getting the 60 days I was rejected due to my UK marriage certificate wasn't registered. My question is if the British embassy in Bangkok aren't issuing the letters now then will I be OK until 30th April? Some say it doesn't cover the marriage visa.

I'm sorry to hear that :( I recommend searching for a job as soon as you can on the regular, well known job websites.

as you are working , maybe getting an extension based on employment would be the way forward ?

what immigration office rejected your 60 day extension of your Non O based on marriage from Savannakhet?
Tod *********
it was rejected because they were married in the UK and never registered the marriage of a thai abroad here in thailand.

With the covid shit-storm, they can't send the marriage certificate to the UK to get it stamped translated stamped by the thai embassy in london and get it sent back. <- the way a person who married a thai in the UK has to get a marriage certificate legalized now.. That means they can't register the marriage at the amphur and get the "thai married abroad" Kor Ror 22 certificate which means they can't get a 60 day visit thai family based on marriage to a thai extension :(

Where did you get your Non O Marriage Visa?

You need to ask at the immigration office to see what they say. In Theory, you should be, in reality it's anyone's guess..

What did immigration tell you? That's probably a better guideline
