Can I get a visa because I have a child here, I don't have legal custody but I do support my child financially. If so what documents do I need?

 

Thanks in advance.

If you are the parent of a Thai you can apply for a non-o visa and the then a one year extension of stay. Or a 60 day extension of stay to visit them.

The requirements for a non-o visa application at immigration is here. https://www.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/7.CHILDREN-OF-THAI-NATIONALITY-NON-O.pdf

For the extension of stay general info is here at number 18. https://www.immigration.go.th/en/?p=14714

You can also apply for the non-o visa at a embassy or consulate.

It will be helpful (though insufficient for a one-year extension of stay) if you are named as the father on the birth certificate.

Yes, I got one based my kid living with me.

 

You need THB400.000 in the bank and the papers to document you are the father.

 

I don’t normally use visa-agents but in this case I did, because I was getting different/conflicting information based on who I asked at the immigration office. Paid around THB 30.000 for it all (multiple entry) and was worth every dime in my case.
