hi,

Technically it is work, but the chances of any questions being asked at a charity event is practically nil, so I wouldn't worry about it. I know loads of folks who work at the Red Cross fair every year without any permits.

Cheers

and the Ploenchit fair every year !

no fee will be payable by him, and he will be admitted to the kingdom for 30 days

Pretty sure that as the 15 stamp on arrival is not a visa of any kind you would be unable to get an extension based on retirement, as this is an extension to a visa.

If you have not you might want to post in the family section also. There are legal aspects that will need to be taken care of as well as the visa issues.

You were officially married and are listed as the father and made the registration yourself? Extension of stay would depend on you having custody so that needs to be addressed even before extension of stay issues. Without the mother are you determined to remain in Thailand or might you be better off in home country? Are there family members that might help?

As for money do you have other income such as rent payments/investments or such that could get the figure above 40k per month (this is gross)? You do not have the 400k for bank account method it seems? If visa runs are required it may be difficult obtaining multi entry non immigrant O in the area but that would be the best visa run option.

We were not married. I am named as the father on the birth certificate, but the hospital did the registration ( )

Going home not really an option, nothing, no one there.

No other income :-(

OK, so to cut a long story short, the missus has left me.................me and our 10 month old daughter.

So I am now on my own with my daughter, that bit is ok, but I am now concerned about how I can stay here and look after her. My pension is only about 34K per month, so not enough for an extension. My daughter does not have a passport yet, and I am sure that she would not appreciate hours on a bus on visa runs either!

So basically, what options do you think are open for me ?

PS anyone recommend a nanny ? I need some help, it's my first ever baby ! :-)

Thanks

Yes - it is a new visa you would not be able to get.

Many thanks lopburi :-)

Am currently on a single entry non-o and I know that I can get a one time 60 day extension to visit my daughter.

But, at the time of application my passport will only have about 90 days validity left, so the question is - will I be able to get the extension or not ?

Thanks

just wondered as may need an extra couple of days

Yes, passport size photo of you. She was registered in someone's tabien baan, it is a blue book and probably what you mean with the family book.

That was done in Si Sa Ket , as that is where her family are

A photo is also required. make sure the child is registered in bangkok, otherwise you have to use the immigration office of the place where he is registered. Bringing the taben baan, household registration might be useful, in cas that is not the name as the family book.

Yes, from Chatuchak (BTS Mo Chit) you can take a taxi.

Call me stupid, but I am guessing you mean a photo , (passport size), of me ?

How do I know where she was registered ?

Hi all,

In a couple of weeks I am hoping to get the 60 day extension to my NON-O based on having a Thai child.

What do I need to take ? I am thinking the following;

Me

Baby girl

Original birth certificate naming me as the father

Copy of the family book naming me as the father

1900 Baht

(I can't take the mother as we are no longer together and she is down Samui)

Anything else I should know or be aware of ?

PS. Is it best to get the skytrain to Mo Chit and then a taxi ?

Thanks

apetly- the only visa that allows income and bank balance is the O-A :-(

I thought as much :-(

I am led to believe that the immigration officer has a level of discretion for the issuance of extensions of stay ?

I wonder if anyone has known anyone who has got an extension without quite meeting the criteria ?

I ask because my pension is B35000 per month, so a little under the required amount for extension based on a Thai child, but just wondering if it may be worth applying anyway ?

Thanks

please read the 'did you know'

http://www.farecompare.com/flights/Paris-P...USM/market.html

Let me please tell the above posters, we sat upstairs on a 747 from Samui to either bkk or cm, (can not remember), but i too was suprised that the runway was long enough, but trust me, i am here posting, so it was !

As stated above, last year i paid an extra 1000 baht per business class seat on this flight route, with Thai, yes the flight is only 45 mins, but was nice to be upstairs with a big comfortable seat and oodles of leg room

2 questions,

I have been told that for 2 a day consultancy at a company there is no need for a work permit ?

Same person told me that there is a 'temporary work permit' for this kind of work ?

I think that he is being frugal with the truth, but can anyone help me with facts ?

Thanks a lot

You are aware that you need to legitimize the child if you want to become the legal father. (For the 60 day extension being named on the birth certificate will be enough).

Mario, while I did not register my daughter at the local (Si Sa Ket) amphur, I am named as the father in the 'blue book' does that make me the legal father ?

I am named as the father on the birth certificate and the 'blue family book', so hopefully that is ok. But would rather not have to go to Si Sa Ket to get the extension as that is where the family registered the birth in the 'blue book'. I currently reside in Bankgok, (as mum and princess do to!)

Sorry, forgot to ask, is this a one off extension or can it be done more than once ?

You can, the cost is 1,900 baht. No time limit.

You would need to show the birth certificate naming you as the father. Taking the child and mother with you might help.

Having never been to Thai Immigration before, I am guessing that this would be at the new office in Chang Wattana area ?

(will def take er indoors and the little princess, will be a nice day out for us all :-)
