I did the Thai culture course 4 years ago. It was one week long and cost about 8000 baht.It was needed to obtain a teacher's licence from Khrusupa but I don't think it was needed for the WP.

I thought once the child reaches the age of 7 or 8 you all toddle off to the the local amphur ( father, mother and child ) and get the child legitimized. I thought it only involved a family court if there was a custody battle and/or the child was too young.

How old is the child ? I thought you only had to go to the local amphur with the mother and the child to get legitimization or am I wrong ?

Ok thanks. Wasn't sure if there had been any changes in policy recently because of what i've heard. Ok it seems like the 90 day non 0 is still the only option, even if you are legally the father. My local immigration are obviously not singing from the same hymn sheet as everybody else ! Ok, thank you very much.

Thanks Robert but that is not what we are discussing. We are trying to find out if a legal father/ guardian can get a one year non o from Savannakhet, without proof of funds. My local immigration said yes ( they've been wrong before) but people on here say it's not possible.

Yes. A 90 day non o can be extended for 60 days. Been doing it for 2 years. Was rather hoping for a one year multiple entry from Savannakhet. If not possible I will continue going to Vientiane.

@Paul ******
Now, that I didn't know. Are you sure ? I can only get 90 days at Vientiane. I was told on Friday, at the local immigration office that Savannakhet issue multi entry non o's, without proof of funds based on a dependent Thai child. They have given me duff information before so i want to make sure before I travel there.

This is what i'm hearing. They are giving non o visa's at Savannakhet based on dependents and marriage, with no proof of funds. I can't seem to find out, with certainty about the dependent non o.
