Passport For Child

Hi.

I'd first start with your Embassy in Bangkok, pull them up on the web and look under child passports etc. There will be probably a lot of paperwork to be completed and it may take some time and be a hassle but in the end you'll have it. Good luck and preserver.

Births outside of Thailand will need to be forwarded to the relevant Post for registering.

Birth registration is not compulsory, but we recommend it. The advantages are that :

  • A British style birth certificate is available as proof of identity and proof of nationality.
  • A record of the birth will afterwards be held at the General Register Office in the United Kingdom. In the future, copies can be obtained from the General Register Office.

The fee for registration plus one certified copy of the entry is 8,612. Additional copies of the entry can be obtained at a cost of Baht 3,370 per certificate.

Before processing an application to register a child’s birth, we need to see evidence of the child’s nationality status. Original documents are required plus one photocopy of each supporting document. All originals will be returned at the time of application. We require certified translations (ie official translations from a licensed translator) of any document(s) not in English. We need to see:

  • Child’s official birth certificate, issued by the Thai District Office. We will follow the names as they appear on the local document.
  • Documentary evidence of father and/or mother’s nationality status - UK full version birth certificate, naturalisation or registration certificate
  • Parents’ marriage certificate
  • For children born on / after 1 July 2006, it is no longer a requirement for the parents of the child to be legally married
  • Evidence that any previous marriages of the parents have been dissolved - divorce or death certificate as appropriate
  • Both parents’ passports
  • Child’s Thai passport (if applicable)
  • We need the full version birth certificate of the parent transmitting nationality (ie with both parents’ names on it). If you do not already have your (full) birth certificate, you may obtain it from the General Register Office .

If you wish to apply to register your child’s birth, please complete the enclosed application form and return to Consular Section, with payment and documentation as specified above.

Birth registration/passport applications may be made in person or by post (straight forward applications only). Consular Section is open to the public Monday to Thursday 08.00 – 11.00, 13.00 – 15.15 hrs and Friday 08.00 – 12.00 noon. We aim to process birth registrations within 5 working days.
