Lawyer in Chiang Mai for assisting with Thai citizenship application

[ecline]

Hi,

Does anyone know of a lawyer in Chiang Mai who has experience with Thai immigration law? Specifically assisting with getting all necessary i's dotted and t's crossed for a Thai citizenship application. I have been eligible to apply for quite some time, but haven't got around to it as the application procedure seems rather daunting. Now I am in my early 50's and figure I shouldn't wait any longer as age can start to become a negative factor.

Thanks!

I've had PR for well over 25 years and I can meet all of the other requirements.

I didn't apply for citizenship because earlier one Bkk laywer told me categorically that people over 45 years old are barred from gaining citizenship and he also told me that you can only apply in Bkk.

More recently in Bkk I spoke to another lawyer who said the opposite, in fact he mentioned that very long-term PR holders, regardless of age, are pretty much automatically approved and quickly.

I guess it would be valuable to a few folks to get a clear picture of the current policy on these points.

Thanks.
