Help for DNA for citizenship
I have been trying to get New Zealand citizenship for my daughter. We may not return to NZ straight a way but if at some time in the future if she wanted to get out, she could. She was born at the Japanese hospital and at the time asked me to sign some paperwork. Later when the birth certificate was produced, it only had her mother's name on it. I sent all the documents away to get it processed. At first, it all looked good. Then they started fretting about small things like my name being missing. I offered to provide DNA and they are happy with that. The problem is all my daughter's documents are in New Zealand. I'm not sure of the procedure of getting it done. There is no embassy here to provide some guidance. If anyone has been thought this route please let me know where you went to get it done. It has to be 21 point match at least so the local labs may not be up to the job.

Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
I've thought about that and NZ has an embassy in Bangkok too. The problem is I can't take my daughter there without a passport for her. Unless I was to get a Cambodian passport for her first. I'm not sure of the drill on that one either. The mother isn't a great help.

Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
ok this applies to thailand, and it might be similar. To get a passport BOTH parents need be there if under 12, after 12 one parent can sign a notarized document giving permission to apply for a passport, UNLESS u have gone thru court and been given sole custody of ur daughter (what i had to do)Heng Heng Heng wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 5:57 pm I've thought about that and NZ has an embassy in Bangkok too.

I'd contact a few places in Bangkok and ask them if they have a hospital they would deal with to do test and send it to bangkok to complete.
worth a try..

Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
I would look for an agency in NZ or one that will act for NZ citizens that does this...you will pay way more, but it will be done, and without the protocol hassles.
Post on NZ forums. Good luck.

Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
After talking to you guys and giving it some thought, I contacted a DNA lab in NZ. I hope to hear something tomorrow. I think, if I went to a decent hospital such as a Thai hospital in PP, and get them to take the samples then I can courier the samples to the NZ lab to have it tested and get the lab to send the results through to the Department of Internal Affairs. I have ID but she doesn't but I suppose it must be a common scenario.

Get your name on the kids official Cambodian Birth Certificate asap...that is the easiest way to get the NZ Citizenship by descent and passport...it will also give you parental rights in Cambodia, without your name on it you have none!
With regards to getting Cambodian passport, I have written a step by step guide on this forum, will find the link for you.

Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
What exactly is parental rights in Cambodia?
Re: Help for DNA for citizenship
It means you're the legal parent, and have the rights as such according to the Law on Family.
There is a case (one of many no doubt) that iirc correctly was posted on this forum recently, about a Singaporean guy who claims the mother has taken their kid and won't let him see it, but what he doesn't mention is that he is not on the child's birth certificate, therefore the mother is the only legally recognised parent and he hasn't got a leg to stand on. He may never see his kid again unless he gets expert legal assistance, because the mother is not agreeing to allow the fathers name on the birth certificate.
