How to apply for a Yellow Tabien Baan (House book) and (pink) Thai ID card for foreigners. Under the Civil Registration Act 2 (2008) a foreign can register his details at his local Amphoe in order to apply for the above forms of Thai ID for foreigners. Section 9. The following shall be added as paragraph two of Section 12 of the Civil Registration Act B.E. 2534: “To be useful for civil registration data storing and using, governmental organizations whose work relates to personal data of people without Thai nationality within the Thai Kingdom shall refer such data to the Director of Central Registration as requested.” Section 10. Paragraph two of Section 1…

I posted this in response to a post in another thread by @bushav8r - then I thought it might deserve a seperate thread. Anyone else got some ideas on thoughts on a Thai ID card for Expats - meaning those living in Thailand on a Non-Immigration 12 months Visa. My idea is that the card would be available to obtain after an Expat has been granted a 12 months extension to their permission to stay. I would think that either category 6 or 8 would fit the bill - and therefore no need to change existing Thai Laws etc. Category Description 0 …

Hi guys, last time I asked a question Faz was very helpful, sorry I have another question. Me and me Thai wife have just moved into our new cash purchased home with our son. Before this we were in rented for 12 years. The house is in the wife's name and her daughter's name jointly. (don't laugh). We have been married for 13 years and if she scamming me she could easily have done it long ago. We are trying to get my name on a Tabien Baan (apparently a farang can have a nice yellow one instead of blue) But the wife went to Chank Wattana who sent her away telling her I needd to go to UK embassy and get some sort of domument stamped on embassy form confirming I am a U…

I have tried to find answers in this forum and outside and things are not 100% clear. What are the options for a widower (married 18 years to a Thai wife, having +10 years unbroken non-immigrant business visa and work-permit, although different companies, but always via BOI), without children, to be able to keep the house and land they have been living in for more than 10 years? I read that Permanent Residency allows you to have your name in a blue Tabien Baan (House registration), but I can't find anything related to what happens to the land on which the house is built. It is currently to the name of the widower's wife (on the deed of property / Chanot Baan). …

I am in need of a step by step instruction on how to have my US marriage certificate registered in Thailand so we can apply for the visa for my husband. We are planning to stay in Thailand for a while to help take care of my parents. We have been married for a long time but haven't had a chance to do it each time we went home. We are still in the States so we would like to know what is needed so we can get them all prepare when we go home.

I'm having an operation in a week. Not super invasive but with a heart attack history, certain red flags are raised whenever I get ready to go under the knife. Enough for me to consider what happens to my earthly possessions (car, cash, computers, etc.) here and in my home country. Here, I own a car and have some bank accounts. I want my wife to have unencumbered possession of these things if something goes wrong on the OR table. So about a month ago, we looked into what it would take to give my wife Power of Attorney, knowing that she's going to be in the US when the operation happens. At that time, she was still here in Pranburi. We went to our amphoe and inquired…
