Easy answer is yes! Everyone should have passports when travelling.

They have their British passports, I’m only asking about Thai passports

My luk krung kids were born in the US.  We registered their births with a Thai consulate and they issued a Thai birth certificate.  Then we applied for Thai passports which they received in about three weeks time.  It was much easier doing it in the US then in Thailand.  They are both on the tabien bahn  They have entered and exited many times over the years on their Thai passports.  When they turned 15 they obtained Thai ID cards.  Neither of them have served in any military and went to university in the US.  They have travelled a few times to Thailand in their 20's and no one ever said a thing about Thai military service.  Now in their 30's I really doubt the Thai military will want them.  The oldest one owns property in Thailand but both live and work in the US.  

The military lottery is based on conscription age, and drawn from those inpatriate at that time. The army unlikely to ever have any interest in them.
