Reader Question: Can my daughters apply for a Thai passport?
Dear readers,
I have been married to a Thai woman for 20 years. We have 2 daughters 14 and 20 years old, they both have a Dutch passport. Is it still possible that they can also apply for a Thai passport at the embassy in The Hague?
We live in the Netherlands by the way.
Regards,
Mike
I want to do the same for my son. Do have some questions such as military service and other obligations for boys in Thailand.
My son has a Thai and Dutch passport and citizenship of both countries. He was called up for the Thai military service but was drawn by lottery.
yes in the hague no problem
Our daughter, born in the Netherlands, received a Thai passport in The Hague, which was no problem. We first had a Thai birth document made.
But I have acquaintances with children who were also born in the Netherlands, and who have a Thai passport in addition to a Dutch passport, so this is possible, but I thought that the possibility of this stops at the age of 21, the embassy does not help me much.
My daughter was born in the Netherlands. I reported her at birth to the Thai embassy and to the district office in the Netherlands and she has 2 passports and is now 17 years old
Hi I have 2 sons both with dual identity
Son 1 born in Thailand, no problem Thai/Belgian
Son no. 2 born in Belgium, no problem Belgian / Thai, registered here in Belgium at the Embassy, after 2 weeks of passport.
Kind regards, Martin
I also have 2 children (sons) aged 8 and 6. When they were born in the Netherlands, I later also had a Thai birth certificate drawn up at the Thai embassy in The Hague. With that they were also able to apply for a Thai passport. Previously you could also extend a Thai passport at the embassy in The Hague. Now some rules have changed and an ID number must first be requested in Thailand (at least for the children) and then a passport could be extended/applied for.
We went to Thailand last month and couldn't get it done. Apparently they needed other papers there than what was said in advance by the Thai embassy. Documents (including Dutch marriage certificate) also had to be translated into English first and then legalized by the municipality where you got married and also by the Thai embassy in the Netherlands. We were not going to succeed because we did have the marriage certificate with us, but it was not translated into English and therefore not legalized. So now I still have a valid Thai passport for one son and an expired Thai passport for the other.
Different authorities say different things that you should take with you, so information was obtained in advance from the Thai embassy in The Hague, but in the end this information turned out to be incomplete in Thailand.
My son is now 14 years old and born in the Netherlands.
Last year we applied for a Thai passport for our son.
We received this passport without any problems after a month.
Too bad we didn't request it sooner.
On holiday to Thailand, I applied for a visa for my son 13 times in 15 years.
My son born in 2017 in the Netherlands.
So Dutch nationality, after 6 months of applying for a Thai passport.
Received Thai passport after about 6 weeks.
Via the Embassy in The Hague
That is not correct, even if she was born in the Netherlands/Belgium, she can get a Thai passport, now she can, but still a certain age…
This is because Thailand does not officially recognize dual citizenship. It is allowed if the other country does not object. The key word is "official"
Here's some more. My daughter was born in 1990 and her Thai birth certificate states that she is stateless. I immediately climbed in and because her mother is Thai, she was able to apply for and obtain Thai nationality. A huge bureaucracy. After going back and forth to Bangkok for a year and a half, she obtained Thai nationality. That was made automatically the same year and my son immediately received Thai nationality when he registered his birth. With my daughter it was written manually with a ballpoint pen on the back of her birth certificate. No new ones will be issued, even if it is lost. Birth certificates are only issued once.
