Thx 4 all advices...I had written to Sunbelt & awaiting their reply...I am also seeking legal advice here in Malaysia

If you can get married surly there would be a process available to have your wife enter Malaysia available. Believe you should be checking that with legal authorities if there is no first person advise provided.

Hi lopburi, registering a marriage is not possible in Malaysia as per the authorities...

> What if I have a 60-days tourist visa?

If you have a valid entry left on your visa (not used, and not expired) you will get 60 days of course. If not, you will get 15 days on -any- land border. You will get 30 days if you fly into Thailand from outside the country.

Hi Jdietz, meaning to say, before my 60-days end, I just do border crossing and I will get another 60 days?

Hello, just wondering if anyone from Huai Khrai or Huai Nam Khun area. I will be migrating there soon.

Assuming you do not have a visa then it would be 15 days, as it is with all land borders.

What if I have a 60-days tourist visa?

And how bout border crossing to Laos, will it be 15 days or 30 days?

Can you live in Malaysia rather than Thailand? Believe that would take care of the nationality by birth issue as children would then be Malaysian. Plus you would be in your home country and not require special visa/work permit requirements. Seems to me it would be easier with one issue (her getting married/into Malaysia) than you both and children having issues?

I had looked at this option as well, but with her stateless status, she has no passport, and getting into Malaysia will be tough. By any means, if I bring her into Malaysia, I would have been a criminal guilty of smuggling alien into the country. I am seriously out of any idea...

No, being born in Thailand will not give Thai nationality to your children.

Then how should I go about it? Any good advice?

Thanks for few private messages from fellow forumers, much appreciated... more input from other forumers will be valuable for me... Thanks!

Yes, she can marry a foreigner.

She is stateless, thus not Thai. I don't know if you can appply in that case for a visa (and extensions) based on being married to a Thai national.

She might be able to gain Thai nationality. Have her check this:

On internet you can aso find a Thai version.

Thanks Mario... If she indeed is allowed to marry a foreigner, then it will be good... as I am migrating over and we plan to have kids. Just wondering, if we are registered in a local amphur near her house, if we have kid in Thailand, will our child be granted Thai citizenship automatically or how?

As for her to gain Thai nationality, I had enquired, since she is registered in the system and issued a pink ID, all she needs to do is wait, it could be months or years or we never know... We were also offered help by some locals but a lot of money involved which I am afraid it will be a turn-out scam

Sawadeekrap! I am a 33-year old Malaysian. Had been in a relationship with a Thai Lue for more than 3-years now. Due to her stateless status (she only holds a pink color 13-digit ID card), she has limitations on traveling outside the district she was registered to. It had been hell trying to find solutions to her problems and as usual it costs a lot of money. Now, that prompted me to migrate over to make the problem less complicated.

The questions;

1) Is she eligible to be married to a foreigner?

2) If yes, then I know what visa I should go for, if not - any kind souls here can advice me on the type of visa most suitable for me & the number of days of permission to stay in Thailand?

Khorkhunkrap!

Greetings! Sawadeekarp!

I am a Malaysian who will be moving to Chiang Rai soon.

Anyone familiar with lands for houses around Ban Huai Khrai & Ban Huai Nam Khun areas?

I also looking for a plot of land for coffee plantation - any suggestion?

Thanks!

Chokdee...
