Reader question: Child recognition document
Dear readers,
My son was born in July 2019 now I want to apply for a Dutch passport for him. I have almost all the documents together and have them legalized at the Thai ministry of foreign affairs. But now one document is still missing and that is the acknowledgment of my son.
Who can tell me where I can have this document made in Thailand or in the Netherlands? I am not married but on the birth certificate my name is listed as the father.
Regards,
Co
Where does Co officially live because that is important for the recognition, the same for the girlfriend (is she Thai or not). Because if Co has an official residence permit for Thailand, he is eligible for recognition of his child in Thailand.
And in addition, it says in the text: I have all the documents together. Strange if you know what you need and say something else is needed, where do you get your information? Because the most important thing is missing is the recognition procedure and everything related to it, such as being unmarried of both, recent extracts and evidence, and court proceedings in Thailand through Thai child protection and that ultimately the recognition deed through the Amphur with the help of the court's decision.
Keep in mind what you legalise. You do not legalize the documents but you legalize the (English) translation of the Thai documents. Legalization of Thai documents is also possible, but then the ministry declares that these are official documents and then you only have a confirmation
This can be done in two ways. Through a judge. Takes 3 months. I followed this path. Or get married, that was the advice of the Dutch embassy in Bangkok. They are very helpful.
Advice from the embassy? They give absolutely no advice about this or if it is best for you to advise him not to get married. Because what disadvantages do you have when you get married, for example, then you enter into the obligation of joint property or not and you then have to register the latter extensively and also of the premarital property. And what about your maintenance obligation after a possible divorce, also in Thailand, or entitlements to any pension rights or reduction of your AOW from single to married. In short, when you get married you only incur obligations and financially you usually deteriorate, while if you are not married, none of this applies. I have now done the recognition procedure twice and it costs between 2 baht and 40.000 baht all in. After that it costs nothing.
Are you married to the mother of your child? Then the child is automatically recognized as a result and your marriage certificate also serves as an acknowledgment paper. Also have your marriage certificate translated and legalized before you take it to the embassy. Not married and you don't want to get married? Then you must hire a lawyer, because then the recognition procedure must be arranged through the court. I chose to get married this year. The second is much more expensive and takes much more time. This is of course a personal decision. Good luck!
Recognition is no longer necessary.
If you already have all the papers, you should know that.
You are listed on the birth certificate, is that not recognition then?
Or do you sometimes want to do a DNA test as proof?
Your name on the birth certificate alone does not count. Recognition is done before a judge with you and the mother present + lawyer + whole series of documents related to the mother (proof that she is not married).
it will take you some time and it all costs a lot of money.
Dear Child,
There is no judge involved (follow the rules).
Recognition takes place in the Netherlands at the municipalities.
Indicate, and ask for neutralization papers (or internet).
Get out of there.
Not that hard. I've written about this before.
Yours faithfully,
Erwin
Ger-korat. Once a year the embassy has the opportunity to apply for a passport in Chiangmai. There I was nicely received and spoken to. To process the application easily and quickly. I was ADVICE given to get married. Then the child will automatically be in your name.
Did you register the birth in NL? In NL, with written permission from the mother, you can simply report him to the municipality and apply for a passport. You are already on the birth certificate. Have everything translated for the Dutch civil servant. If you want to do it in TH then indeed getting married in TH is easier.
