Burmese Woman With Passport And German Man - Baby Born In Samui - Does It Need A Visa?

[Coffeehouse]

As written above. My burmese wife (only married buddhistically) and me (German, I am here since 14 months now on 2 tourist visa and 1 work visa) stay on Koh Tao and had our son born 6 days ago in Samui hospital.

I am unsure wether he needs a visa or not. I went to something called "Tesseban" on Samui to get the birth certificate but had only brought my wifes passport since I assumed he would be registered in her name only since we are not married by law yet. Anyways, I was told they needed both passports so I will go back to Samui in 2 weeks with those documents. We will go to the german embassy in BKK later to claim my fatherhood and have him become a german citizens (besides hopefully also maintaining his burmese citizenship).

I just wrote that because maybe it will help to tell me if he needs a Visa or not. I assume it is not like the USA where somebody being born there would justify a green card for the parents as well? But maybe he is exempt from Visa up to a certain age?
