getithere328 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi, hoping someone can help. My daughter was born in the UK and her mum is Thai. I’m lead to believe that she can be registered at the local Amphur and added to a house registration book. I have also read that a child of a Thai mother automatically becomes a Thai national at birth. When I read this it seemed to imply that no matter which country the child is born it still has an automatic right to Thai nationality. We are not in a position to have both parents go to the local Thai embassy in the UK to sort it out but I can bring my daughter to Thailand (as her mother is now there) to do the Amphur registration . Any advice would be greatly appreciated , thank you. Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the process of registering them at the Amphur is just a formality? Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be able to get a Thai PP , but will not be able to get a Thai Birth Certificate . Although a UK Birth certificate with the Thai Mothers name on it , should be sufficient to get a Thai PP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preacher Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 If born in the UK the birth certificate must be issued by the Thai embassy in the UK. If currently in Thailand, the forms can be filed with the Thai Consular department in Bangkok. They will sent the forms to the Thai embassy in Bangkok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
