The father is an EU member national, and his daughter holds dual nationality (Thai/EU nationality). If applying for the NON O guardian visa based on a Thai child is not an option, the alternative would be the NON O guardian visa based on a non Thai child, that is, through her ED visa as a student at an international school, with the father attached to her visa as her guardian.

My question is: would the father be eligible to pursue this second option?

For instance, by submitting the child’s EU birth certificate and her EU passport at the local immigration for the extension?

Please note, I am not seeking advice on the first option (guardian of a Thai child), so I kindly ask that responses focus solely on the alternative route.

Additional context:

• The child is 10 years old

• She was born in Thailand

• She holds both Thai and EU passports

I do bear in mind that, different immigration offices exercise discretion differently.

Thank you in advance for your input and for sharing any similar experiences.

Ive been in Thailand 2 years already and recently I got approved for the dtv visa, is it possible to add my child to it? We homeschool so I don’t want an education visa. I’ve been informed by different immigration officials over the years that children under 14yrsr old don’t need a visa. However, on multiple occasions I’ve encountered issues at airport immigration because my child doesn’t have a visa. Our Last entry the officer threatened that my child could be black listed in the future. Just trying to get a clear understanding of what to do since nobody’s on the same page.

Application dependent kid (18 months old) Jakarta

On the second page they ask for occupation. Do I just enter the same info like I did for my appliu(main DTV holder)?

I’m a bit confused 🙃

Thank you so much for your support 🙏

Hi everyone! I need advice can someone help me answer this please. If I’m planning to move to Thailand in June with my 2 small children should I obtain a visa now or once I arrive? And what visa do my kids need?

I would like to teach English but I don’t have a bachelor degree only a TEFL Certificate. I’m not sure if I should go for a work visa or Educational visa. 🤷🏽‍♀️

And lastly, should I book a one way ticket if I plan to stay long term.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

Thanks in advance!!!

Can your kids stay based on your retirement visa? Actually, it'll be the 3 month pre-retirement non-immi visa for now. I'm aware they cannot overstay in principle but would prefer to avoid that. A 5-year old.

**For anyone who successfully applied for DTV for yourself and your family (Walk-in):

Did you apply for both yourself and your spouse at the same time, or did you have to get your visa approved first before submitting theirs the next day?

I’m applying in Taipei and need to plan the trip duration. Thank you so much!🙏

Jakarta DTV update

My husband just got our 2 visas from the embassy!!! 🙌🏼😆

Documents provided

For him as main DTV holder:

- 500k THB on a bank account at date of application

- letter of acceptance from a Muay Thai school on Koh Lanta

- price 5,600,000 IDR

For me as spouse:

- proof of relationship - copy of our civil union certification from Amsterdam (NL)

- copy of his passport

He gave both applications on Monday around 1pm. And got the visas on Thursday at 1.30pm. 3 days like they announce on the website and when you drop the application.

I did not have to be present which allowed me to stay on Bali with our kids.

He only had to proove 1x 500k THB for both of us.

The MT school on Lanta gave a pretty high price to agree to give him the letter.

Note my husband DOES plan on training in MT but NOT everyday because as a family it just doesn’t work. And they were offering daily training at first.

He managed to get the price gor down a bit but still it was quite an expense. Something to take into account when applying for soft power DTV

I feel joy and relief that we are to enjoy Thailand again.

Also happy to answer any questions!

Hi , I'm legally married to a Thai ( 30 years ) , have 2 children , which visa you recomend to move back? US citizen

Options for a family of six? Dad and Mom want to study the Thai language (actually want to study thai, not just for visa.) Kids are homeschooled, ages 16,13,11,7. Is it possible to get a dependent visa for all four kiddos?

Good Evening 😊

I'm in need of advice and would be very grateful 🙏 to anyone that's been through a similar situation.

Myself and 2 half Thai children will be arriving in Thailand from South Africa on the 20th April with a non immigrant O visa based on marriage.

My eldest son from previous marriage so not Thai will join us next year he will be 20 years old by then.

So my question is what kind of visa can I apply for for him as he will also be staying with me. His not able to work his special needs.

Please any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Thank you
