Hello expats...
I visited the local immigration in Nakhonratchasima today and ask them about visa for my 2 years old daughter born in Thailand. They said she doesn't need any visa until she reaches to 15 years of age. I asked them again if she travels out of the country and comes back with no visa on passport will the immigration stop her then they reconfirmed and said NO they will not because she is dependent on me and I am working here.
Any expat here has been into this kind of situation?
Thanks in advance
TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the visa requirements for a 2-year-old child born in Thailand, as clarified by local immigration officials in Nakhonratchasima. The immigration office stated that the child does not need a visa until she is 15 years old. However, comments from other expats highlight that while there may be no immediate need for a visa, legal requirements could necessitate a visa for re-entry if the child leaves Thailand, as every foreign national requiring entry needs an appropriate visa or extension.
