ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
A person cannot stay in Thailand on a visa based on having a half Thai child if that child is living outside the country. The visa application requires the presence of the 'reason' for the visa, such as the child, at the time of application. However, it may be possible to apply for a year-long multi-entry Non-O visa based on raising a Thai child at a Thai embassy before arriving in Thailand, but this is limited to specific consulates.
