Renewing Thai ID under 20 years old

Featured Replies

Hello,

Can I renew my Thai ID when I'm under 20 years old on my own without consent from parents or legal guardians? If so, what documents would I need and what would be the process of renewing my Thai ID?

Thank you.

How old are you?

I'm 16. I'm asking about renewing my Thai ID under age 20 because I haven't been able to find info online about this and also because of personal reasons. My Thai ID expires 1 day before my 18 birthday so I wanted to know if I could renew it when I'm under 20 years old.

This link doesn't work. Majority is 20 years in Thailand and children of 7 yo can get a Thai ID. It is an official document and important.

It works on my mobile. 

1000 baht for 30 mins talking to English speaking  lawyer.

2000 for an hour. 

If you wanted your wife there with you same price for a Thai & English speaking lawyer.

 

There's another lawyer firm in Bangkok that offers an hour free consultation and also gives estimates of costs. 

 

Many lawyers on Google Search.

Majority is 20 yo. 
it is clause 19 of the Thai commercial and civil code.

 

Section 19. A person, on completion of twenty years of age, ceases to be a minor and become sui juris.

 

 « Sui juris » is a Latin for a legal expression meaning adult. There are exceptions in the law. Someone who get married under 20 can become « sui juris ».


See clause 20 of the Thai commercial and civil code if they follow 1448 and following.
