  1. nope. Thailand want to see the entry and exit stamp in the same passport. He won't be able to leave. Catches out many UK and US folk given they don't have a formal exit imigration. Thailand does.
  2. If he enters on the Thai passport, he'll have to leave on a new valid one. Make sure you'll be able to renew his PP in Thailand and have all the documents with you to do so. Otherwise he'll be stuck here. That will mean being registered on the Tabien Baan, and ideally, having an ID card if aged over 7.
  3. Honestly, if you are starting from zero now preparation now, I wouldn't bother. You are going to need notarisation and police records from your home country, documents and tax returns from your HR, plus time to have the PR desk check them all, vet them. You normally have to get the ball rolling well before the offical announcement. Given you are married to a Thai citizen you can skip PR anyway for roughly the same qualifications. Paperwork is much easier and it only costs 5,000 baht (vs 98,000 for PR). You can apply all year around too. No need to choose nationalities and the Thai language test is waived for married applicants. https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-citizenship-application-process/
  4. Just saw this online: https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-permanent-residency-for-2023-applications-now-open/ Digging in, looks legit. The PR page of the immigration website is here: https://www.immigration.go.th/en/?page_id=1744
  5. A good article on this very topic https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-citizenship-lawyer-recommendations/
  6. Would it be an issue in life? Mostly no, except at perhaps the worse possible time, as Heng, suggests. Is it hard to change? No. A quick trip to the district office to get a new ID card issued, and then the next passport the name will be updated.
  7. She entered on her foreign passport, she should exit on it. If she's under 15, no stress, as their is no fine. You should always enter and exit thailand on the same passport. https://www.thaicitizenship.com/traveling-as-a-dual-citizen/
  8. Curious to understand what makes you say that? A certified copy from SB of the RG seems to work pretty well. In any case, once you have an ID card, its never asked for again.
  9. Females married to Thai husbands don't need to reserve a Thai name. https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-citizenship-based-on-marriage-to-a-thai-husband/
  10. The best site for this is www.thaicitizenship.com - lots of free guidance there. Also a long running thread here (300+ pages).
  11. Why on earth are you going for residency? If you are married to a Thai citizen then you can skip PR and get citizenship with roughly the same qualifications. Substantially cheaper (5000 baht vs 98,000 baht) and comes with a heck of a lot more rights.
  12. You are misreading the law. This article explains how you are misreading those particular clauses in the nationality act https://www.thaicitizenship.com/thai-dual-citizenship/
