RentingFairly Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 My Thai Girlfriend is having a baby in July. I'm here on Tourist visa under 50 years old, and have 400,000 baht in Thai Bank. What will I need in terms of proof the baby is mine and I need to be here to raise him? Is the Thai Birth Certificate with my name as father enough? Any links to previous threads are welcome. Cheers!

PoorSucker Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 To get extension of stay you must be the legal father. It's not enough to be on the birth certificate. If you are not married you must go to court to get parental rights. All info is in this pinned thread.

RentingFairly Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Thanks for your replies so far. For the 400,000 can it be split up between 2 or 3 accounts in different thai banks. For example 100,000 in Bangkok bank and 100,000 in fixed account at Kasikorn Bank and 200,000 in savings account in Kasikorn Bank? Or is all 400,000 required to be in a single account?

lopburi3 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Sorry that was a yes, by not saying no. Multi accounts are accepted. The disadvantage being more bank letters required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchai Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Sorry that was a yes, by not saying no. Multi accounts are accepted. The disadvantage being more bank letters required. I'm sorry lopburi, but isn't the 400, 000 baht regulation for people being legally married? :jap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
