Hello, hope everyone is well🤗 First of, my apologies if the same question has been asked before.

I will give birth in Phuket very soon and as far as I can understand (CMIIW) with a Thai birth certificate my child can stay here without a visa until he's 15? (again CMIIW pls). my question would be if there's any guardian or medical visa that I can get to stay longer because I’m now on exempt entry visa from border bounce and I believe I could make extension for another 30 days but it would be best for me to stay with my newborn at all times so I’m looking for a longer stay permit.

PS: me and my partner are both foreigners and not married yet so I cannot piggyback on his work visa😅

Thanks in advance🙏🏽

Re-entry permit question: do all parties have to be present for the re-entry permit application, or can 1 family representative go on behalf of wife/kids with all the passports/applications?

Hi, clarification on 90 days reporting, I would like to mention that looked through previous posts and I could not find an answer.

Tomorrow my self and my husband are going to the immigration Division ( Chang Watthana) to process our first 90 days report. Can someone please clarify if the kids also need to be present? Many Thanks

Hello.

I am Thai and my husband is foreigner. He has company in Thailand. He can come under non o and I can apply work permit for him here. But he would like to bring his mother age over 50 years old. Is she able to apply non o dependant visa following person who work in Thailand not retirement visa.

Best regards.

Hello everyone. I am coming with my family (wife and two toddlers) from Canada near the end of September. I have documents in order to secure single entry Non-O for a volunteer position and then the rest of family come in as dependants. Unfortunately, my wife and kids hold Australian passports and I have been told that it will take 1+ month for their visas to be processed by the embassy in Ottawa. As such, I am considering that we simply ever on 45-day visa exemption or on tourist visas. My questions are:

1. Will it be possible to apply for the Non-O (volunteer) after entering Thailand?

2. Is it is possible to secure the Non-O after arriving in Thailand, does it make a difference whether I enter on a visa exemption or tourist visa?

3. Can people offer their opinions of the likelihood of the continuance of COVID extensions beyond December?

Thank you.

Hello everyone, not sure this is the right group for this but figured I'd give it a shot. I recently married my Thai wife. We are looking to move over to Canada in the next few months and I want to get citizenship for her and our baby on the way. Does anyone here have any recommendations for a good immigration lawyer in Thailand, preferably in Pattaya, but perhaps Bangkok as well, who we can consult with? (I know it's probably best to consult with a Canadian immigration lawyer, but they are super expensive and I wanted to see if I could find someone here in Thailand, first). Thanks!

I am looking to go back to Thailand to see my wife and daughter

I would like any advice on the procedure from the U.K. and how long it takes from start to boarding

I do have the Covid insurance at least that’s a start

Thanks for your help

Chian Mai Immigration office related question:

Can one person arrive early to receive a cue number for each family member (presenting individual passports)? This used to be the case. I could then have my wife and children join me closer to the time of processing.

Our last visit, roughly 3 months ago, was different. It yielded me holding one cue number (for arriving early), and my family members rushing in to get theirs (over 20 numbers later) and our paperwork being processed at 2 different times (for my earlier number, and their later numbers). Also, this created a ton of confusion as a lot of the documents are shared with visa holder (myself) and riders (my family).

I didn't know if this was a "fluke" mistake of someone on duty that day (other families faced the same problem).

Or, do I drag everyone in as early as we can get everyone out the door?

Recent related experiences would be helpful. Thank you.

Hi All

I am awaiting a job confirmation. Should this be successful:

My current exempt stamp (including my family's) expires on the 15th. If I get my Non B, what should I do for my family?

We have one land border bounce left which may be extended. That allows my family two months in The Kingdom. I am told that they can only transfer their stamp to a Non O Dependant Visa at immigration after three months of me having my Non B.

Should I rather ask immigration if they can make an exception to do the transfer sooner?

Thank you so much for your assistance🙏

Hey crew, my wife is on a Non-O and has a re-entry permit for the trip to Australia we have just arrived back from. Our children are followers on her visa. They need to check in tomorrow when immigration opens (I don’t because I’m here in tourist visa at the moment). My question is: can I go and check them in just by taking their passports, or do my wife and all 5 children need to show their faces there in order to check in? 🙏 THANKS.
