We are currently here is the UK. My Thai (partner) Wife is trying to renew her UK passport, that she has had for 20 years. The UK Passport office has refused renew it because the surname in the Thai Passport is different. Basically, they are saying the name must match exactly. in both passports They are telling her she must change the name in her Thai Passport.
She doesn't want to change her Thai name for a whole bunch of reasons.
What I am trying to prove to the UK passport office is:
I order to change her name she will have to travel to Thailand and change her name in her house-book that is registered with the Ubon Ratchathani Province Ampur. before she can change it in her passport.
I cannot find any website that clearly states how she would change her name, and I ideally need it from some sort of official source.
Can anyone help or give suggestions please - thanks ????
