Reader question: Baby on the way and double passport
Dear readers,
Does anyone know what the procedure is for obtaining double passports (Dutch and Thai) for an expected baby, born in the Netherlands to a Dutch father and Thai mother?
Today we received the happy news that my girlfriend is pregnant. We currently live together in the Netherlands (she has an MVV/TEV) and the child will also be born in the Netherlands.
I searched for information on Thailandblog, but only found information about obtaining a Dutch passport if the baby was born in Thailand.
All info is welcome.
Greetings,
Raymond
Dear Raymond,
Congratulations on the great news. Our experience was this: In January 2007, my pregnant girlfriend and I went to the Dutch embassy in Bangkok to acknowledge the “unborn fruit” together with the mother as the father. In March 2007 our daughter was born in Thailand. First applied for the Dutch passport with the previously obtained documentation and then the Thai passport. Both were soon awarded.
If you do not acknowledge the child before birth, you will have to prove with proof that you have cared for the child for a number of years before you can apply for a passport. This procedure could also work the other way around. I think you can ask for information at the embassies.
Good luck with arranging,
Ed
Just report it to the town hall, just like any other Dutch baby. In addition, you can (submitting your house book, translated birth certificate, etc.) register the baby at the Thai embassy in The Hague and apply for a passport there.
An alternative is if you go on holiday together to Thailand for the first time, to have the child added to the house book (tabian job) and to get a Thai passport. Much cheaper.
Raymond,
If you are not married, you will have to acknowledge the unborn child in advance; this can be done at the municipality.
The child then automatically receives Dutch nationality at birth and, if desired, also a Dutch passport.
For the Thai passport it is even simpler, with the birth certificate (you can obtain multilingual from your municipality) to the Thai embassy, because the mother is Thai, your child will also receive Thai nationality and, if desired, a Thai passport.

My wife is Thai, our children were born in the Netherlands.
We are not married.
Therefore the following procedure:
1 Before birth: Recognition of the unborn fetus via notification in 2003 (daughter) and 2005 (son) to the subdistrict court.
2 After the birth you must both sign in the town hall that you will also receive custody.
3 Then you must determine the surname together
first 2 then 3, otherwise you have nothing to say.
4 Declaration to the municipality (within 2 or 3 days after birth)
5 When registering, ask for a 2x international birth certificate
Number is 2 for the legal procedure, in the end the embassy only needs 1. 🙂
6 I think you can make an appointment at the embassy via the website.
Thai procedure is simple.
Officially you may have 1 nationality as a Dutch person, but Thailand does not register anything in the Netherlands.
Go to the Embassy and report the child.
Done.
Please note if it is a boy that he can be called up for military service.
you just have to call the Thai embassy in The Hague...it's no problem
I can only share something from my experience.
Our son was born in a hospital in Bangkok, the hospital has registered and we have received the birth certificate.
We obtained a Thai passport in Bangkok and a Dutch passport from the Dutch embassy.
I guess you have to have the birth certificate in English or Thai and then register it at the Thai embassy and get a Thai passport.
You can simply get a Dutch passport from your municipality.
It is no longer necessary to recognize the unborn fetus.
I read another nice comment about going on holiday and registering in the house book.
Those officials are guaranteed to ask for a legalized birth certificate
