This is s serious situation as you know. If you want usable info from people here you will have to provide clear information to base the advise on. Otherwise you will get wild speculation. I'm sure its on its way.

Examples. He signed off on her passport. Does he work in the Thai government passport office? He has zero to do with her passport. Uses her to come in & out of Thailand. What does that mean? Uses who? The daughter? Proof from the govenment about the 100 % support of the child? What form does that take? The Thai government doesnt provide such proof.

In Thailand it is common for people not to be married & yet refer to each other as husband or wife. Was she actually married to him? This will make a huge difference.

The games have already begun. In these situations its common for the father to attempt extorsion tactics. It isnt a matter of being mean; its about money.

The child has a passport. When was it issued? Is her last name different than her mothers?

Done right & with the correct information his permission will not be needed. We didnt need the fathers permission to bring my wifes daughter because we had a clear understanding of how this can be done in Thailand.

You can bring the little girl here. Forget what you think the father might do. He cant do anything due to his past behaviour. You just need to know how to present the info to the right people at the right time.

When Rin went to get passports for her children, we were told both parents have to sign for a minor's passport in Thailand. For Rin to get passports for her children she needed their father's signature (they were never married at the amphur - lived as husband and wife for seven years). Since he could not be located, Rin had to go to the local amphur where she lived along with two people that knew her (sister and cousin, in her case) and sign an affidavit stating that she was 100% responsible for taking care of the children. The next day she took that affidavit and was able to get their passports. She did not need the affidavit for anything else (i.e. the US Embassy did not require any proof that she had 100% custody).
