Any Rights For Thai /uk Baby

Recommended Posts

Met a girl outside tesco with a baby, she was crying, she did not have any money to feed her baby, she told me the father her boyfreind was from the UK, she asked me to help contact him. I have phoned,tried to email and text this guy but he wont answer.

What i would like to know is, does this child have any rights to any help from the UK, the guy"s name is on the birth certificate and i have seen all the paperwork he has given and sent to this lady with intent to marry, now for some reason he wont answer the phone to her, it was bloody awful to see this girl in this situation, we are all human guys, any one know any leads as to how this girl can get help?

Not sure about british law on this subject. But normaly the father is required to pay child support, there is a treaty on that to which many countries are party and a judgement of a Thai court can be executed in other countries.

But first it is necesary that the father is indeed the father. Merely mentioned on the BC is not enough, as the mother and father are not married. In that case the fahter also has to be the one who registered the birth. If he was not the one registering the birth he hasn't legitimised the child, (recognised before the law the child is his).

In that case it might be possible to file a paternity suit against the father and have the court determine that he is the father (and there for needs to pay child support). I don't know it a paternity suit is possible under Thai law or UK law.
