Post by: zzzozzz on February 23, 2019, 05:45:52 AM

My wife`s son has lived all his life in Norway and both him an his mother are Norwegian citizens. However he is also Thai.

Recently got a call from a motherinlaw in distress, Her grandson has to report for military. party11 Hell No i say mhihi

Anyone know how to handle this?  If we decline the Thai-citizenshi (which he dont really need) will that do it ? 

Thank you for any advice.

You can probably pay to get him out for about 25K Baht.   I know of a case where the Thai reported for duty and his mom paid to get him out after about 4 months. That was in 2009 but I expect it can still be done.  However I personally think he should have stayed in.
