My son had a twelve month visa extension issued at Jomtien, based on having a Thai child, which expired about six months ago.

He has taken advantage of three Covid extensions, but it seems now he will have to apply for a 'child visa extension' again.

Would you list the provisional documents required.

I believe there is no need for the ฿400K to be seasoned. Please confirm.

And when he gets an approval and returns after the month, will the immigration check to see that these funds are still in his account.

Thanks, chaps
Answer summary
A user inquired about the provisional documents required for a child visa extension in Thailand after their twelve-month visa expired. Comments provided a detailed list of necessary documents, including the applicant's passport, the TM 7 extension form, proof of residence, financial requirements (either ฿400,000 in a Thai bank account with no seasoning or a monthly income of ฿40,000), and parental rights documentation. The respondent confirmed that the ฿400k does not need to be seasoned and mentioned that immigration may check the account balance after approval.

>Would you list the provisional documents required.

1. The applicant’s passport and a copy of:

a. The data “picture” page.

b. The most recent visa (if applicable).

c. All entry stamps or extension of stay (if applicable) since arrival.

d. The departure card (“TM 6”) that should be stapled in the passport.

2. The extension of stay application form (“TM 7”).

3. A copy of the submitted Notification of Residence of Foreigners form ("TM 30”).

4. The child physically next to the applicant, and:

- The ID card and a front and back copy of the ID card.

- The housebook, and a copy of the first page.

5. To meet the financial requirements of:

- 400,000 in a Thai bank account, no seasoning requirements, OR;

- 40,000 THB in monthly income

6. The original and copy of a court order granting parental rights, or an original and copy of a marriage certificate.

7. 2x passport sized (4cm by 6cm) photos.

8. 1,900 THB processing fee.

Different immigration offices have different requirements, and this may include:

- A hand drawn map to the applicant’s residence.

- Pictures of the applicant and the child(ren) in various locations in the residence (front of the house/ condominium, in all rooms, etc.).

- Interviews with neighbors.

- Rental contract (if renting property or a condominium).

- Witnesses who are familiar with the applicant and child and can verify they live together.

>I believe there is no need for the ฿400K to be seasoned. Please confirm.

Correct

>will the immigration check to see that these funds are still in his account.

They might, it is specific to the immigration office

Thanks for your complete answer.

Perhaps others who have recently used this path at Jomtien might be able to provide information concerning the funds on passport collection (though on his first visa extension, he merely had the passport stamped and away).

suggest you have him visit Jomtien immigration and ask IF...IF...IF he can once again get the one year extension and the requirements for it.

He has to meet and prove the financial requirement too.

And yes Jomtien most likely will need to see proof of the 400,000 Thb in the bank when he returns one month later after the Under Consideration period to get the full year stamp in his passport.

Bottom line...he may or may not be allowed to even do this as he is now under a COVID extension and had a Non O based Thai child support visa before.

He may need to leave Thailand.

Good Luck.
