Danielsiam Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Hello, I am EU Citizen, my girlfriend Filipina is pregnant 6 months, we will do a long visa-run in Cambodia then back to Thailand. So she will be back with a 7 - 8 months pregnancy I am not aware how is the process to apply for a extension for a pregnant woman, and how much she can hope to get pregnancy extension, and even after her pregnancy is it possible ?

mduras01 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 What does long visa extension mean? What I’m saying is if you go at 6 months and come back at 8 months - considering the shitty state of medical care in Cambodia - the baby may not get the best prenatal care. This is an absolutely critical stage of your baby’s development. My soon to be wife is already 7.5 months in and I’d never do visa runs at this stage. What if she pops preterm? Maybe some type of medical visa is in order - but not the tourist thing. Not at this stage.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielsiam Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) she will be back on visa-exempt, or tourist visa, if she get it. Then we would like to apply for extension of stay of Thailand for pregnancy reason. Right, but we don't have choice to leave Thailand, especially at Chaweng Wattana, the officer was already very angry at her that she stayed already so long time in Thailand ( 4 months ) and she told her you're maybe girl who do bad work here in Thailand..... that's why I wanted we leave Thailand to make out of living in Thailand, they don't have much heart for pregnant woman in Thailand, they even think she's working during her pregnancy.

Maestro Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 The Police Order with the list of extension rules includes no extension for the reason of pregnancy. Police Order 327/2557 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritTim Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 There is no extension possible specifically for pregnancy. You would need a doctor at a major hospital to provide a certificate stating that she was unable to travel for medical reasons. That does seem feasible.

elviajero Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 There is no extension of stay for being pregnant. If she's unable to travel for a medical reason she might qualify for an extension of stay. She would need a letter from a doctor confirming she can't travel. Just being pregnant wouldn't qualify. Medical extensions are given for a maximum of 90 days at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackThompson Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I admire your commitment to your new family, and attempt to time your gf's child-birth with being in a place with excellent medical-care. The only advice I might add, is if you can stay in Malaysia instead of Cambodia for that month, this could provide good medical-alternatives should she enter labor early (however unlikely this may be). 12 hours ago, Danielsiam said: ... at Chaweng Wattana, the officer was already very angry at her that she stayed already so long time in Thailand ( 4 months ) and she told her you're maybe girl who do bad work here in Thailand... ... they don't have much heart for pregnant woman in Thailand, they even think she's working during her pregnancy. To spite the total absence of "Thai welfare" available to the OP, or the mother of his child, or the child when born, the officer seemed to think that she was somehow a problem to Thailand - that she must be working illegally. While that might be a reasonable concern in many cases, a Farang boyfriend who is taking care of her should have put that concern to rest. Never-mind the tens of thousands of Cambodians with legal visas, supplied by IOs at the behest of elites. In a sane analysis of lost Thai job-opportunities, a pregnant Filipina with a Farang boyfriend, some early Western retirees, and backpackers don't rank. They are simply the magician's distracting-hand. Unfortunately, many IOs seem to fall for the magician's tricks, and think this behavior is good for their country, when it actually contributes to the problem, by reducing foreign-capital flow into the country from self-supported foreigners. This sort of pattern is not a problem unique to Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mduras01 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 OP I think the safest bet is to go to your wife’s home country, which is not too far away. Not an expert on the Philippines but I think for the short term it’s not such a bad idea until the baby is born? Hate for your baby to be born in Thailand then have visa issues and such and have to leave Thailand with a newborn in tow. It just seems immigration is a little stricter than usual lately, so perhaps a good alternative is to stay at some exotic Phil Beach with a good hospital nearby? Just an idea. Trying to err on the safe side and visa won’t be an issue for you, and obviously no issue at all for her. Is there a reason why you are choosing Thailand specifically? I thought Phils had great hospitals—they certainly have great nurses. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to apply for the baby's passports shortly after getting their birth certificate. How long that takes to get the passport depends upon your embassies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a general rule, a passport is not necessary to travel with an infant. The child's birth certificate and your passport, as the mother, is sufficient. If you do need a child passport for some reason, I would suggest inquiring at the Philippine embassy as to what they will need, and the normal turnaround time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The infant will certainly need a passport to leave the country along with their birth certificate to prove why there is no entry stamp in the passport. They will have to show a passport to the airline also to prove they can enter the country they are traveling to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a package starting at 50.000 baht for natural birth. Complications like a C-section will set you back several 100.000 of baht. Also they don't deliver many babies there (cost). Me and my wife used the government hospital with private room, mainly for their experienced staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frilars Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Yes I have seen the package and I've sent it to my fiancee and he's okay with it, he told me money doesn't matter most important is we got soon as possible our little one the documents. Thailand is much easy way to get that than my own country and bit cheaper. If I give birth here in philippines it's take 6 months for registering the new born birth certificate plus the passport 7 or 5 weeks. It's ashame to say this but that's the truth my government working too slowly and takes a lot of time,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
