[Visa Run]

Could anyone advise the closest border to Phuket? My Husband & I need to do one last border stamp for 30 days before we have our papers ready to go for the Non Immi B and O visas.

Thanks

[Dependent Visa]

HI

This is a long story and fairly complicated, but any information would be appreciated. Here goes:

My husband & I have been in and out of Thailand for the last year on tourist visas - extended holiday. We have decided to stay in Krabi and are in the process of registering a company, getting a non imm B Visa and work permit for my husband and dependant visa for myself and our baby due to be born in Phuket 24th October.

Our current 30 stamp from the border expires on the 10th August. We may not have all our paperwork for the company sorted out by this date and will need to make another trip to the border - that's ok, even at just over 6 months pregnant.

Questions:

Is there such a thing as a dependant visa and how does it work along side my husband's non imm B visa and work permit?

Should I be looking at acquiring a different visa rather than dependant visa?

If we don't have the non imm B visa and dependant visa, merely a tourist visa, am I allowed to give birth to our baby in Thailand?

Would immigration for any reason not allow me in or out because I'm so close to giving birth?

Many thanks for any feedback.

[Having A Baby In Phuket]

So very sorry to hear that about your wife LivinLOS, what a terrible thing to happen.

Thanks to you and Fatter than Harry, I will check out the Phuket Bangkok on my next visit to Phuket in a months time.

[Having A Baby In Phuket]

My husband & I currently live in Ao Nang and have decided to have our baby in Thailand, due around 24th October. We have looked at the Phuket International Hospital and plan to have the baby there. We haven't visited the Phuket Bangkok Hospital yet but on my insistence, will do so on our next visit to Phuket in one months time.

Any tips on both hospitals would be greatly appreciated. I'm fairly anxious about the birth to say the least and would like things to go smoothly if possible.

Secondly we would need to rent somewhere fairly close to the hospital as we need to go two weeks before the due day, and will possibly have to wait two weeks after the due date, depending on when he wants out!

Any suggestions on accomodation would be great, we have stayed at the Imperial hotel in Phuket Town on previous trips, but would prefer something less expensive for such a length of time.

Many thanks

Mandy
