My son was born in Thailand and his his mother is a Thai citizen so obviously he’s (half) Thai.

When he was 7 he came with me to the UK (I’m a British citizen) and we have both lived together in the UK for the past 7 years

Now he’s 14 he is returning to his mother in Thailand to finish his studies at an international school.

His Thai passport has expiring a few years ago

He has years left on his British passport.

My situation and question is this

If he returns to Thailand on his British passport, he will get a visa exemption at immigration.

However, he has a Thai ID card and in my opinion he doesn’t need a visa once the exemption expires because he’s a Thai national and once in the country that’s it.

But his mother thinks he has to come in on a Thai passport otherwise he will end up needing a visa.

Am I correct?

Or is his mother correct?

Thanks 🙏

My thai wife has english and thai passport which one should she use for holiday leaving uk to thailand and visa versa return

I have DTV but I’m considering changing nationality which in my case means canceling my old one. I suppose next I will just need to re-apply with the new passport.

I’m curious if anyone has had any experience.

Hi hopefully you guys can point me in right direction,

Couple of quick questions.

Do I need my Thai ID before I can apply for my Thai passport?

What documents will I need to prove to apply for passport ID ?

My mother is Thai but I was born and live in the UK, we have houses and land in Bangkok and surrounding areas, will this help me at all?

Thanks 🙏

Bit of a different question…

My wife (Tha and UK passport holder) id flying with me to Thailand for two months.

When we return, she is going back to Thailand two weeks later with her daughter.

Is this too short a time for to return to Thailand on a second visa exempt?

My wife does have a Thai passport also. But need to know as the flight has to be booked with correct name in the passport.

Can a Farang get a Thsi citizenship/passport?

Can Thai passport holders visit friends in the uk?

Some visa questions (and thanks very much in advance)

My family and I are starting the process of moving from Nevada to Hua Hin. My wife is a Thai citizen and my 19 year old daughter was born in Bangkok. We moved back to the USA when my daughter was 2 years old so the only Thai ID we have for her is her birth certificate and she has a US passport. My mother and I are American.

Questions: For my daughter, do we need to go to the consulate in Los Angeles to get her a Thai passport, or can she just get a 90 day visa online with my mom and me and then get Thai ID after she gets to Thailand, or can she just show her birth certificate and get a visa on arrival without a return ticket?

How long does it take to get the online 90 day visa, and do we have to wait for my mom to get her US passport to apply.

Would rather not go to LA if possible, long drive, hotel stays, etc But also don't want to have to buy round trip tickets.

Thanks so much!

Just leaving US for Thailand. Wife is Thai. Flying Delta / Korea air.

1. Delta requested my visa, so fortunately I have an e-visa 90 days. Return ticket in January. Wife has no return ticket and they requested her visa, but instead accepted her Thai passport in place of return ticket.

Hi guys me again. Thank you for all comments about the passport business of going in to Malaysia with my Thai lady friend. I will be getting her a passport. I live in Krabi. Where is the nearest to me to require a passport for her?
