My girl friend is Cambodian but she has a work permit to be in Thailand. We are both in England now and she is on a 6 month UK tourist visa. We have a 6 month old baby who is a british citizen and my girl friend and baby will return to Thailand after 6 months. I will stay in England for an extra 2months. so my girl friend and baby will go to Thailand alone. Does my baby need tourist visa? as some people say my baby I should get a 60 day toursit instead of the free 30 day visa on arriva, and the immigration do not charge babys for overstaying on 60 day tourist visas? As by the time we leave thailand again my baby will have been there 3 or 4 months. please advise
TLDR : Answer Summary
The baby, being a British citizen, may enter Thailand on a tourist visa or the visa-exempt stamp for 30 days. Although children under 15 are not fined for overstaying, having a legal status for longer stays is advisable, especially if the plan includes living in Thailand. For short visits, the standard entry options should suffice.
