goodstuff Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hi all, I have a question for you guys. I am a UK national and i have an 8 yr old daughter born here in Thailand who has a UK passport. Me and my ex are divorced and we have 50-50 custody of my daughter, however she stays with me permanently because her mum lives in Sweden with her new husband. My question is this: If i wanted to take my daughter back to the UK to live would she be accepted into the schooling system if i didn't have her birth certificate and permission from her mum? (As her mum has her birth certificate and i have no way of getting in touch with her) All answers greatly received. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damo Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Get in touch with the schools in the UK and find out if a birth certificate is a requirement, or try to get a copy in Thailand. You may need a letter from your ex wife to permit your daughters travel outside Thailand, this is something to be aware of too. You may need a court order to permit international travel otherwise. Shouldn't be difficult if the mother is absent. Best of luck, hope you get the young one and yourself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwasaki Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 You say your daughter has a UK passport you have papers of custody so l don't see the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puyai Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 You would need to show a birth certificate to enrol in a school in the U.K. Try to get one from the local tessaban and then get a certified translation.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanemax Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I was under the impression that only one B/C can be issued in Thailand, they do not do replacements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
