Can I apply for a DTV visa if I have a child with a Thai woman out of wedlock?

Steve *******

Yes but your name must be on the child's Birth Certificate to get the initial 90 days Non Imm O visa and you can't get the 1 year extension of stay unless you've been through the Court and got legal custody of your child. You can apply for the 60 days Thai dependant relatives extension of stay.

@Brandon ***********

Well yes, most offices only issue the 60 days visiting Thai dependants. Never seen an Immigration office issuing both the 30 and 60 days extention for the same visa/exemption/entry.

They do, it's allowed on any visa or visa exemption. The criteria is not the visa you have but the relatives you have

Should I use an agent for my 1-year extension of a Non-O visa in Thailand?

Steve *******

Going this route your extension of stay will be fraudulently obtained and if the sh*t hits the fan you'll be covered in it not the agent.

The OP already has the visa and 800k so just pays 1900bt for the 1 year extension 👍
