Maybe I was not clear in my original post leading to confusion... Here is the clarification: Family visa as in NON-O Family (Spouse/Children, in this case children) Visa for me to live in Thailand to take care of children here.
-
What? This is about me getting a visa in Thailand not about my children getting a visa abroad. And of course they have dual nationality already but I don't.... ????

Got the custody status changed to joint custody as per last week. And a court order to take care of children with it. It did cost me 50,000 baht but as I now can get visa trouble free for many years to come it had to be worth it. Living abroad as a foreigner is an experience and it comes with a price...

Thanks for input. I've got myself a lawyer claiming she'll get it done within 2 weeks. I'll be sure to make an update here.

When me and my wife got divorced as friends at the Amphur last year she was by formality (and partly by my ignorance) given full custody of our two children. None of us realized it would create a problem for me when applying for family visa later. She agrees to give me joint custody now, but it's not as easy as it would sound. Thinking we as two adults that agree could go to the provincial court on Koh Samui to change it, did not work. They did not even let us in the building... Referering to "everything must go through a lawyer". If we agree what do we need a lawyer for? Does anyone have any intel or experience of this? What would the cost estimate reasonable be, considered we both agree? To be able to apply for visa the custody needs to be changed to joint custody and a court letter to be issued that I'm needed here to take care of children. I don't wanna spend more money on lawyer than I have to, rather save up for the kids education...

COE rejected by Stockholm. Reason; upload vaccine certificate dose 1. EU Covid-19 certificate does not state date of dose 1 and dose 2. It only states the date of the latest dose. So anyone that has not downloaded the certificate after the first dose but before the second can not possibly have any certificate for dose 1. Fortunately in my case, I did download it after the first dose and managed to find it on my phone. But the dose 1 requirement will definitely cause grand confusion among COE applicants and inevitably less people being able to come to Thailand, at least from Europe.

One would think but many people has been having issues with this. And it's not strange as normally you would enter your name exactly as in passport. But it's good that it's obvious to you.

Safe travels ????

Be advised that when logging in to your COE application just use your first and last name, middle names should not be entered.

Now 7-day stay for Sandbox tourists from any country in the world

Sorry just realized you arrived before the new requirements. You might be looking at a 3rd test and the full 14 nights. However at least you should be able to change location within the sandbox. -

The requirement is 7 nights so you should be good. They will issue a release form (hate the word, sounds like getting out prison) after the 2nd negative test. Fit to fly is not required as far as I'm concerned. Good luck! -

But if they are planning to go to the places that are included by the sandbox most of them plan to stay minimum 7 nights anyway, therefore can't I really see the problem. It's moving in the right direction, I rather focus on what's positive but maybe that's just me. -

There's several flights for this purpose to Samui everyday, not a problem. -

After 7 days you will receive a release form, same as those that have undergone ASQ. After that you are free to travel under the same conditions as everyone else in Thailand. If you book directly with a SHA+ certified hotel, they will issue the SHABA certificate for you. Which has a ID number that you use to book the PCR tests on https://www.thailandpsas.com/ -

As I've done two weeks of hard quarantine in Bangkok earlier this year, I must say Sandbox is a much better alternative and as good as it gets at the moment! -

To Samui it has to be all in the same booking, you can add the flight to Samui with Bangkok Airways if you fly with Qatar airways. Price when I checked was 2,300 baht, same as when booking with Bangkok Airways directly. Adding the flight to an already existing booking is possible. To Phuket you will have to arrive with an international flight, Qatar Airways recommended. I had an existing booking to BKK that I changed to Phuket, free of charge. -
