    100% possible.

     

    I applied for my 2nd daughter's (me UK, mother Thai) FIRST UK Passport at VFS in Chiang Mai around 30th September, got the new passport (VFS call you to pick up) around 24th October!

     

    Didn't get any call or email from UK Passport Office, apart from a Covid delay email , no further info requested. I thought it was pretty quick!

     

    Happy days! The staff at VFS were really helpful, they have a checklist to make sure everything being sent is correct.

     

    One thing to remember is you need a copy of the witnesses passport as well!

     

     

    Thank you very much for your help and sorry for the late reply!

    I think it is possible.

    Go through the steps here to confirm it. https://www.gov.uk/overseas-passports

    Thanks Ubon Joe, I did look at that before. I think it's possible as well, but just want to talk to a real person to confirm. I will book an appointment at VFS Chiang Mai and take the required documents and see what happens. Thanks again.

  3. Hello, I want to apply for my child's first British passport. I'm from England and the mother is Thai.

    I want to know if anyone knows is it possible to apply for the passport at VFS Chiang Mai. I know it is possible to do passport renewals there , but not sure if first time passports are available. 

    I have tried contacting the VFS, checked on government web sites and tried to contact the British Embassy in Bangkok all without success. 

    Does anyone know if its possible to do this procedure in Chiang Mai or does it require a trip to Bangkok?

    Thanks so much and sorry if this is posted in the wrong place.

    What exactly are you referring to in this portion of your statement above. Are you saying that photos of your wedding ceremony and husband & wife at the home must be provided? Is this indeed a requirement or merely something that Immigration has asked for in the past? Please explain further because I am unaware of such a requirement. I just got married at the city hall in Hang Dong recently, and will be going to Promenada (Chiang Mai Immigration) about this soon.

    What I'm referring to is that it is a requirement to supply photos if your applying for an extension based upon marriage in Chiang Mai. I suggest you print some pictures in colour (normal A4 paper is fine), of yourselves at the location you currently reside. Include a picture displaying the house number, in front of the house, and a few pictures inside (in the bedroom, living room). Make sure you are both in the picture. I also supplied a few pictures from our wedding celebration. I suggest that you put a maximum of two pictures onto one piece of A4 paper. I supplied 6 pictures in total, 2 from our wedding celebration and 4 at our property. 

  5. Hello I need to extend my marriage visa and wanted to check if the documents are the same as before. Last year was my first time applying for this type of visa so just wondered if the process is the same. I will be apply for the visa in Chiang Mai Immigration at Promenada. If anyone has recent experience of applying for their extension on the basis of marriage some insights would be well appreciated.

     

    Documents / Requirements (I think??):

    - TM 7 Application.

    - 1 Photo (4 x 6 cm).

    - Copy of passport, main page, visa, TM 6 arrival / departure card.

    - Copy of marriage certificate.

    - Copy of Kor Ror 2 (long tabien) from Amphur office.

    - Copy of house registration (blue book / tabien baan).

    - Copy of wifes ID card.

    - Letter from bank to prove 400,000 Baht in bank for at least 3 months.

    - Map location of house, hand drawn. 

    - Photo's of marriage / at house / in front of house and so on................

    - 1900 Baht to pay for visa. 

     

    Questions: 

    - Does the photo (4 x 6 cm) have to have a specific back ground colour?

    - Does the Kor Ror 2 (marriage registration) have to be within 6 months or will an old one be ok? Also do you have to get a new Kor Ror 2 from the Amphur office where you originally registered your marriage?

    - Does my wife have to be with me?

    - How long before my current visa expires can I apply for a new one?

    - I remember last time there was a waiting period, "visa under consideration". Does this waiting period still apply second time round? If so roughly how long?

     

    Thanks so much and sorry for so may questions, just want to make sure i have everything I need as I really don't want to make two trip to the dreaded immigration office!
