     Abstract This article is part of a dissertation on cross-border families and multiple citizenship construction from below in Thai-Lao border communities. The objective was to study the construction of multiple citizenship of cross-border Thai-Lao families through practices related to bi-local livelihoods. The study involved qualitative research within the phenomenology approach using in-depth interviews with participatory and non-participatory observation. The participants, totaling 5 0 persons, were selected using the snowball technique with those are cross border relatives, community leaders, government officials and non-government organization staff. The study found that many aspects of everyday life of cross border family members, sometimes called ‘Sing Song Fang,’ have been moving from Thailand to Laos. There are many patterns in crossing the border, such as following the state, escaping the power of the state, and hiding from the state in bi-local communities. Those who wish to live on both sides of the border without choosing between them must construct multiple kinds of citizenship, such as cultural, economic, geo, educational, ASEAN and global citizenship.
