Dependant andguardian visasfor families here.
Your family's permission to stay follows yours, and it should not depend on you learning a form. We prepare the whole household's paperwork together.
Ask about a dependant visaHua Hin Visa Concierge is a private visa and immigration administration agency. We are not a law firm and we do not provide legal advice. All applications are decided by the Thai authorities, and no outcome can be guaranteed.
Three relationships, three files.
Each one carries its own evidence, and the evidence for children changes as they get older, which is the detail families are most often caught by.
Ask which applies to your household
A child
See detailsUnder a stated age, with evidence that changes as they grow. School enrolment usually forms part of it.
A spouse
MarriageRelated to a marriage extension but not the same thing. We will tell you which of the two your household should be on.
A parent
See detailsPossible in some circumstances, with its own conditions. Worth asking about rather than assuming either way.
Four steps, one household
Four people, one file round, and ideally one date a year from then on.
We map the household
Who is here, on what, and when each permission to stay ends. Usually this is the first time anyone has written it down.
We collect once
Documents that serve more than one application are gathered once rather than four times.
We prepare and file
The applications go in together where they can, which is fewer mornings for you.
We put you on one clock
You leave with the household's dates in one place, and we hold them as well.
The letter, and the diary
Most of the delay in a family file comes from other people's calendars rather than from the office.
What you will need
The set splits by relationship, and some of it comes from third parties who work to their own timetable. We send you the current list for each person after the first conversation.
Nothing is published here until it has been checked.
The school question
If your child is enrolled in Hua Hin, the school letter is part of the file, and schools differ in what they will write and how quickly. We will tell you what to ask for and when to ask for it, which is earlier than most people think.
Keeping the family on the same clock
Four people with four expiry dates is four mornings at the office. We will try to bring them onto one date, so the household files once a year and then forgets about it.
Family questions, straight answers
If yours is not here, it takes one message to ask, and you will hear back within 24 hours.
My child is nearly grown. Does that change things?
Yes, and it is the single commonest surprise on this topic. Ask a year ahead rather than a month ahead, and there is usually a plan.
Can the whole family apply at once?
Usually, and it is much less work when they do. We collect the shared documents once rather than four times.
What does the school need to write?
It varies by school and it is best asked for in writing, early. We will tell you what to ask for so you only ask once.
What if our expiry dates are all different?
That is normal and it is worth fixing. We will try to bring the household onto one date so you file once a year.
Do dependants do 90-day reporting too?
Anyone staying beyond 90 consecutive days has the same obligation. We track the household's dates together.
Can you guarantee it will be approved?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who says yes. Every application is decided by the Thai authorities. What we can do is make sure nothing in your file gives them a reason to say no.
