nellyp Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 When my sons first arrived in Thailand we were given emergency travel documents to fly over from the UK (They didn't have Thai passports only British). Now they are leaving, will they be required to show the original documents shown when entering (they have not been out of the country since) i.e. emergency travel documents, or should they show their latest Thai passport (with no stamps in) or both? They will have/never have had a visa in their passports, though I believe immigration want to see when and how they arrived in Thailand as they have dual nationality. Any help would be appreciated Ceers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7by7 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Why not get them Thai passports whilst in Thailand and then use those to leave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I assume the Thai Embassy issued the ETD's. If they were stamped into the country on the ETD they would show it along with their Thai passports on departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai Embassy in London issued the ETD's, but their current Thai passports have expired. I assume I will need to get them new Thai passports to leave the country. Unfortunately I am not in Thailand at the moment and I have to sign to say they can have new passports apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could do a letter of consent at the embassy in London. Then send it so they could apply for the passports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really hoping they can send me one rather than having to travel all the way to London. Surely they could email me the letter of consent as I would need to get it to my wife in Thailand anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to do it in persson. They have to witness your signature and notarize it. Edited March 9, 2018 by ubonjoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
