I was born in Udorn Thani, but raised in America. My mother is Thai. What would I need if I want to move to Thailand?

Hello! I'm looking to apply for the soft power DTV (then my family apply to accompany me) potentially in Vancouver or Ottawa in the next month or two. I've searched through the group and I'm not seeing this anywhere.

If the copies of my birth cert, marriage cert etc. are all issued within the last 2 years is that acceptable? Or do I need to pull all new copies within the last 2 or 3 months of applying? I've heard some conflicting answers.

I currently live in the USA and I have American citizenship. My mom is in Thailand and has Thai citizenship.

What is the best route to get my Thai citizenship?

Visa question, applying for a Non-O. Already in Thailand.

The Immigration in our town says they cannot accept my US marriage certificate or daughter’s birth certificate because it has not been approved by an embassy.

Documents have local and state seals. Any suggestions on what we can do next. Without leaving Thailand and applying outside.

Thanks in advance

DEPENDENT VISAS

I’m applying for a DTV visa at the Thai Embassy in Jakarta. Once that’s approved, my husband and child will apply as my dependents.

I already have our Brazilian marriage certificate and my child’s Brazilian birth certificate. Since Thailand is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention, I was told these documents would normally need extra legalization. This would cost me around 800 USD.

Before I spend that, I’d really like to know: for dependents, have embassies actually required fully legalized documents, or have standard certificates + translations been accepted in practice?

Any experiences in Jakarta (or elsewhere) would be super helpful. Thanks a lot! 🙏

Hello,

It is necessary to translate birth certificate and marriage certificate? thanks

So I was having a couple of issues in regards to identity and the requested document order time. They requested a birth certificate and it was going to take up to 4 weeks for me to get one.

I sent in a word file explaining my situation under the requested birth certificate and asked if they can extend my application process an extra few weeks and instead they have told me to come in for an interview.

If I go for the interview and I don’t have this, is it going to be an issue? Surely they wouldn’t request an interview without some other option of proof of identity?

Hey guys,

So I just got asked for my birth cert. I've uploaded passport, bank statements, drivers licenses... All the typical stuff and they're now asking for a birth cert, however, I don't have one and it can take weeks to get on in my country...

Can i go to the thai imigration here and figure out another way for proof of ID? How can I talk to someone that deals with the documents to at least give me an extension on the "Incomplete applications over 14 days will be automatically removed from the system."?

I'm a little lost at the moment, and don't want to stay in laos much longer, haha!

I wish to marry a Thai lady that I have been with for 7 years but I do not have my Birth Certificate.What can I do

Any one know what is required to show proof of your dependents relationship
