Visa Passport If you have a criminal record in Thailand, can you still apply for a passport?

You can apply for a passport if you have a criminal record. Passport has nothing to do with whether you commit a crime or not.

1. Article 13 of the Passport Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the passport issuing organ shall not issue a passport if the applicant has one of the following circumstances: (1) he does not have People's Republic of China (PRC) nationality; (two) unable to prove identity; (3) practicing fraud in the application process; (4) Being sentenced to a penalty and serving a sentence; (five) the people's court informed that there are unresolved civil cases that cannot leave the country; (6) Being a defendant or criminal suspect in a criminal case; (seven) the relevant competent departments of the State Council believe that leaving the country will cause harm to national security or cause great losses to national interests.

2. Article 12 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Exit and Entry Administration stipulates that China citizens are not allowed to leave the country under any of the following circumstances: (1) those who do not hold valid exit and entry certificates or refuse or evade border inspection; (two) the punishment has not been completed or belongs to the defendant or criminal suspect in a criminal case; (three) there are unresolved civil cases, and the people's court decides not to leave the country; (4) Being subject to criminal punishment for obstructing the administration of the country (border) or being repatriated by other countries or regions for illegal exit, illegal residence or illegal employment, and not allowed to leave the country within the prescribed time limit; (five) may endanger national security and interests, the relevant authorities in the State Council decided not to leave the country; (6) Other circumstances under which exit from the country is prohibited by laws and administrative regulations.

Therefore, according to the provisions of the above-mentioned laws, people with criminal records or criminal records do not belong to the situation of not issuing passports or not being allowed. Therefore, you can apply to the relevant passport issuing department.
