Wow....what they read? Facebook and LINE?!

When I have the court order of my legalisation. Is this enough for my Non O visa or will I also need something from the amphoe? Also, should my GF come with me to apply for the Non O visa? I heared more and more stories that getting a visa with having a thai child (and not married to the mother) is getting much more strict.

What is with the billions of THB every year scammed from foreign men? Ok sabai sabai...this money come into Thai economy...

You mention your not married to the mother.

But is she still around .are you together ???

If yes you can go to the local amphur and get a document stating your the main carer.

If she's not round could be difficult.

That might help till your documents come from the court.

Yes we tried that at the amphoe already. Total disaster... they refused everything even refused to help us and give more information. Just say why I don't marry the mother then I would get everything.

But great news. Our lawyer called a few minutes ago. He got the court order. Have to pick it up now....

Ok thank you.

Can I get a visa in vientane on the same day as in savannakhet? Which is the best and fastest location to get the Non O single 90 days?

Hello everyone,

my situation is that my 60 days "visit child" extension ends at the 24th of october. So I have to leave the country ( I guess). I am still waiting for the court decision papers which state me as legal father. Father legalisation has been done and the judge verdicted me as legal father at the 2nd of october. I have been told that it will takes around 3 weeks until we get the offical documents.

So right now I only have the birth certificate of my thai son and his tambien baan which states me as father. I am not married with the mother.

Actually I wanted to go to savansnakhet to get a Non O multiple entry visa, but as far as I understand I will need the child legalisation papers for that. Will I stll get the 90 days Non-O single entry visa just with the birth cert and tambien baan at savannakhet?

thanks

If you drive around BKK city at 8-9 P.M just have a look how many lights are open at the Condo Towers. Hardly to see a building where more then 50% seems to be inhabited.

The problem would disappear when the tickets become payable by bank transfer or directly on the spot by credit or debit card. No cash on the spot. Problem solved but this country is not famous for a logical approach to any problem.

Bingo!

Yes and if they don't pay then send payment reminders to their province addresses which will endup in the trashbin... This country is not ready for non cash penalty payments..

So officers can choose now. Get the 10k one time then probably soon this system is not working anymore and 1-2k daily bribes will be gone soon. Probably there is already a big discussion among policemen if it is a good idea to scare the people away to pay bribes.

It is so so unbelievable. A policemen gets bounty for arrests I am speachless....

I thought the village marriage is absolutely worthless for visa and you need an official marriage with certificate from the amphoe and if you have a child then you must be the legit father. So officially married to the mother or fatherhood legitimized by a court.

my oh my...not long and it starts like in turkey...where the goverments starts to block youtube and twitter... and considering about banning the sites...

That's right. Why are we not allowed to freely work and take care of our families.

Cos your not a legal migrant that's why, is this such a hard concept to understand ?

What do you mean legal migrant.

I am married so I am legal.

I migrated here, so i am a migrant.

I need to support my family.

Is this such a hard concept to understand.

a legal migrant is one who has been been granted permanent residence in a particular country...so unless you have Thai PR your not a legal migrant in Thailand...

eg in the example in the US about the guys wife, she has been granted a green card, ie Permanent residence in the US, or to bring it back into the Thai context, what do you think the "Non-immigrant" bit means on your visa ?....it means you are not a legal migrant/immigrant and will granted a period of pre-defined stay in Thailand ie 12 months at a time and have to re-new your permission to stay periodically and meet the criteria they set.

When do the first half thai half farang children go into politics. So we have someone who is fighting for us in the government

The next step to remove the street food vendors...

I really want to see the 2 year visa requirements. My guess is that this is just for the international school teachers with 80k+ incomers....

although a business operator who wants to have authorisation power will still require a work permit.

Thank you for nothing

Actually I was not someone who question all of the police work. But start threatening people who are not agree with this "closed case" (Hell he really called it "closed case") let the alarm signals ringing...

...the question is....why did they delay the transfer.....???

...overstay...he had money to pay his airfare....that was already mentioned.....

...extradition...why didn't they send him to Bangkok.....???

...and how about legal representation....???..

He tried to bribe a policemen. So he is also charged in Thailand for trying to bribe an official. It was mentioned before. So before extradition he has to wait for his case in thailand.

"Dont make them sad"?! Sad like the nice police offer who stopped me with my car and told me I was driving too fast what was absolutley wrong but of course after a few moments the nice officer lowered my 500 baht penalty to 200 baht but he couldn't give me a bill for it. Or the Immigration officer a few weeks ago who blackmailed me that if I dont pay 500thb I would only get 7 days instead of my regular 30 days entry to the country.

But of course I will not question that. I dont want to make these honest officers sad.

I think this country is too expenisive for rice farmers. They should been teached to farm something else.

So these are the people who will lead govern the country. I am sure they will govern good because the are really someone from the "Folk"

Neighbor is offering 10k....our family member want 15k....both agreed... I think it is much more worth...but I dont want to get involved in this

Yes but any guessing how much is this ting wort? I saw a post at alibaba.com from a thai timber seller. Price was from 2000 to 2500 $ for 1 cubic meter for pradoo wood. I highly doubt that this is the Thai Price. My guess is that it is about2 cubic meter of wood what the neighbor cutted of.
