Paul Catton Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) Under normal circumstances Passport or Thai ID card and airline ticket. Edited June 18, 2016 by Paul Catton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrry Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) To leave some countries like Australia you may need a stat dec from the mother that the child can travel. You may under some circumstances need that here especially when crossing borders. However you should not need it here if the father is the legal father and travelling.

sjabby Posted June 18, 2016 Author Share Posted June 18, 2016 But children in THailand under the age of 7 dosnt get a ID Card? Do we really need to get a passport from him to travel domestically in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1FinickyOne Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 You do not mention the nationalities.. Why don't you just ask the airlines... give them the specifics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrain5000 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) My wife travels with my daughter frequently on domestic flights within thailand. Never have had to show any documents other than her own ID. But my daughter is under 2 years so we don't book a seat for her. Seeing as your nephew is 6, you'll need some sort from of identification in order to book a seat for him: i.e., a birth certificate, passport or etc should be fine. Theres never been a need for a letter of consent throughout my experiences. Edited June 18, 2016 by dtrain5000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orpheus454 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 If they don't have a passport or ID card I think you need a birth certificate for a minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malt25 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 My wife's grandson, 3, often flies with us domestically. Has an authorization letter from his mom, including copy of her ID card. Never been a problem, accepted by all airlines. Cheers..... Mal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrry Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 THe only problem I see is that you say he is travelling with his father. You do not say if this is biological or if he is recorded as the father by the court or if he was married to the mother at the time. If he has not been recognised as the legal father it is possible to have problems if he has there should be none but he may have to prove this.

tartempion Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) We flew Thai Lion Air last week with a 5 year young girl (daughter of my gf's idiot brother we raise), we showed copy of her birth certificate and were told next time we would need to show the original. A form was filled in to state the birth certificate was a copy for gate security check. On previous trips with Nok Air and Air Asia we just showed the birth certificate copy, maybe rules were thigtened?
