Hi, I'm looking to take my daughter to the UK in the next few weeks
This is her first UK passport
Can she leave Thailand on this UK passport?
I don't really want to deal with her mother regarding getting a Thai passport
She's absolutely useless!

Does the mother know her daughter has a British passport? You should really get your daughter a Thai passport as well, if not in the future she will only get 30 days every time she comes to Thailand. If she had both passports she could leave the UK on her British passport and then on arrival in Thailand use her Thai passport. I am pretty sure she can leave Thailand on her first British passport but much better if she gets her Thai passport first.
