Hi. Have the rules recently changed regarding foreigners born in Thailand...specifically...if the child leaves Thailand for the first time, and re-enters after a week, will the child need a visa? Or will the child stil be visa free until the age of 15? Both parent's are foreigners... thank you

Lesson of the day;

Seasoning of funds using banked money for extensions of stays.

There are a several types of extensions of stays that require proof of funds AND if someone is using the "banked money" method (where they have the funds in a thai bank account in their name) there are specific "seasoning" requirements for those extensions.

By seasoning I mean the money must be in the account a specific number of days BEFORE you apply for your extension (not before your extension is due).

--Extensions based on marriage the seasoning of the 400K baht is ALWAYS 2 months (even though some immigration offices tell you it's 3, it's really 2)

Police Order 327/2557 Clause 2.18 line 6

--Extensions based on being over 50 (retirement) the seasoning of the 800K baht is 60 days for your first yearly extension and 3 months for every yearly extension after that. (NOTE: 60 days may or may not be 2 months and 3 months may or may not be 90 days, that's just how the rule is written)

Police Order 327/2557 Clause 2.22 line 4

--Extensions based on raising half-thai children the 400K baht has NO seasoning requirements

Police Order 327/2557 Clause 2.18 line 5

--Extensions based on raising foreign children the seasoning of the 500K baht is 30 days for the first yearly extension and 3 months for every yearly extension after that.

Police Order 327/2557 Clause 2.11 line 5

NOTE: this is ONLY for applying for extensions of stays at the thai immigration offices INSIDE of thailand. These seasoning rules have NOTHING to do with applying for VISAS from thai consulates in other countries.

Sorry this was long, hopefully it was helpful

And thus ends the lesson of the day.. ;) :P :O
