I don't see your problem. You are married so use the support for Thai wife at half the price. With this visa you can later obtain a work permit if you decide to work here.

So. If you plan to move here after work next year (October - couple weeks later than normal plans for arrival) arrive on a single entry O visa with marriage certificate and in January apply for extension of stay. You will receive that in February or March. Obtain a re entry permit. Return to Uk in May and come back on same extension of stay/re entry permit next October and immediately apply for a new extension of stay.

Your renewal date will always be the same each year - one day before the entry date used for your first extension of stay (October) so all you need to do is make your return before that October date each year.

that solves my problem the daughter has a british passport can we get her a thai one she,s 2 years old?

yes

Documents required when applying for a Thai passport

He should be able to obtain a Thai Birth Certificate and Passport for his daughter while in the UK before his trip to Thailand. I have a very similar situation but in the US. Check the UK Thai Embassy web site for requirements. Though i don't think it will hurt for him to wait till his family's in the LoS, will it? :o

It will make it a little more complex as child will need to obtain a visa if she has to use UK passport. Best to obtain Thai passport overseas and then use it to enter Thailand.

The delay problem is that the passport has to be made in Bangkok.
