You should never marry for any other reasons than love.

Hey thanks everone for the input. I am currently living with a fairly educated lady and i see no reason to marry now. I own a company in the states and have been here for 4 months now and do not want to go home now. I am on a non imigrant visa here. And can stay for one year. But want to stay longer. I have a pension and now will close my company in the states to stay here. I guess i am lucky so far. She asks me for little money and helps me with all things. True .... she has two children from thai man... but not a problem now. She is 44 and children are grown. No one has ever asked me for money.... I hope that hammer never drops...
At present i have a non imminigrant "B" visa... Do you know if that can be changed to a retirement or work visa easily?
Thanks

I don't know about changing it to a NON O, but Thetyim does, but being an American you will either have to have 800k as Buriram says or an income from a pension or some source of 65,000 baht a month with a letter from the embassy as to that effect.Originally Posted by garyk
I have a NON O Retirement and have has 7 or so extensions and I find CM the best place to get it done, plus the consulate is there and I hate BKK.
I would give serious consideration to not letting your State side business go immediately as it is could well be a gift and before you undergo any visa changes. The benefits you get from opening an offshore subsidiary or branch for example provides for better visa conditions and potential cost savings than a retirement visa does..You can get longer term visas with fewer visa runs required as well as other various perks including significantly lower funding required, a work permit any or all of which could lower your visa fees or required visa runs, with a one year visa for example and only reporting every 90 days instead of visa runs every month..
As for the required monthly pension amount I believe I understood that because of the dollar devaluation making it more difficult for retirees to reside here they lowered it to 50,000b per month for US retirees some months back....
Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
My Thai wife and I married for the same reasons most other people would choose to marry, as it happens we got married in Australia. The only 'benefit' I can think of is that I need less money in the bank to renew my annual Thai visa, but in return she has legal claim on my assets and vice versa.
If this is the way you are thinking, I recommend that you do not get married.
I have been here on and off for the past three years now.
I am very interested in the business beifits, if i already own a company. I will look into that.
Thanks
make no diff here married or not, you build it and she end up with it, ready or not ,,,,,out ya go.
But here I think, if ya marry one then you gonna get more head..
Marry a Jew broad and when you say "I DO" she says "NO MORE I DON"T" and thats the end of the skull pussy.
wft..??
From personal experience I can dispute this claim..Jewish girls love to suck gentile cock, it's the uncut version they have an aversion to...Originally Posted by blackgang
^Sure, how many of em have you been married to, pray tell??
And no it has nothing to do with the French Bob, but the married part that turns em off.
only needed one BG.... maybe you just got the one that wasn't up to the task? sadly as luck would have it she developed cancer of the tongue.. that's not intended to be humorous, though I know the irony is tempting..
it's the uncut version they have an aversion to...
Have to disagree. Strongly. Yeah.
I would not marry a 44 year old thai woman, if she has a 16 year old daughter now your talking.(just kidding)
For visa purposes there's no advantage for an US citizen to marry a Thai.
The retirement visa is easy. As far as working here goes...fock that!
Truly sorry to hear that DudeOriginally Posted by DrivingForce
I gots to dis too, never found any that was afraid of it and most seem to approve of the sneaky little bastard, and none ever said that they didn't like it.Originally Posted by FlyFree
But as long as it was hooked to a nice dude like me how could they dislike anything.?? Pray tell..
contradicting yourself there BG.. You said they loose interest when they get married, so maybe they never really were because of the uncut and no other reason, they were just doing the naughty to get the ring..Originally Posted by blackgang
