Home » Reader question » Reader question: Longstay visa OA: English extract from the Register of population
Dear readers,
I have a question regarding the long stay visa OA. The Thai embassy indicates, among other things, that one must submit the following to apply for the said visa on their website:
- A personal data form.
- An English extract from the Birth registration.
- An English extract from the Register of population.
Numbers 2 and 3 seem to me to be an extract from the birth register and population register respectively. It is not clear what needs to be discussed with “A personal data form”.
Upon inquiry with my municipality, only an extract from the Civil Registry and/or an extract from the Basic Registration of Personal Data can be provided.
Can someone explain to me exactly how it works to meet requirements 1 to 3 above.
Many thanks for the responses.
Regards,
Jan
1. The personal data form is, as the name suggests, a form with personal data. I have applied for an OA Longstay via the ANWB. Saves a lot of travel and the costs are not too bad. In any case, they were less than if I had had to incur travel expenses to The Hague. The relevant form was included in the application package I received from the ANWB. I also found one here: http://www.thaiconsulatela.org/pdf/personal-data.pdf.
2. This is indeed an extract from the birth register. You must apply for this at the municipality in which you were born. Please note that it must be in English.
3. This is indeed an extract from the population register, or the Municipal Personal Records Database. You can request this from the municipality where you live. Again, please note that it must be in English.
Start the application on time and really make sure that every requested form and proof is included. Even then you can expect all kinds of additional questions. I had completed my application form, made 2 copies, then dated and signed original plus copies in pen, but got everything back as each form had to be completed separately in pen. Later had another request for additional proof of bank balance. But in the end I got everything right on time.
1. This will refer to the Application for visa, which contains your personal details.
2. This refers to an extract of the birth certificate, which can be collected from the municipality where the certificate is held, usually from the municipality where you registered your birth, i.e. your place of birth, possibly also by email, etc.
3. Extract from the GBA (or whatever it is called now), population register of your current place of residence.
If you have the OA, remember that within the year of validity of your OA Visa, you extend your period of stay by 1 year by entering and exiting Thailand.
Remember, this is not 1 year after your entry into Thailand, your period of stay starts upon entry!
The OA is Multiple, every time you enter the validity period of your OA Visa you will get another stay period of 1 year in the 1st year.
Success.

Dear Jan,
Last year (July 2016) I already had contact with the Embassy in The Hague on behalf of someone from the blog.
Then I was sent this.
More information http://www.immigration.go.th (Thailand)

1. Non-immigrant visa O costs 60 euros. (single entry) /
Non-immigrant visa O, OA (multiple) costs 150 euros.
2. Certificate of Conduct, in English from the municipality.
(หนังสือรับรองความประพฤติ) http://www.justitie.nl
3. Pension papers (income statement), with income statement per month or per year in English, an income of 800.000 baht per year or 65.000 baht per month รายได้)

Legalization (Legalisation):

Open: 09.30:11.30 AM - XNUMX:XNUMX AM.
2. Secondly to the Thai embassy. Video สถานเอกอัครราชทูตไทย http://www.royalthaiembassy.nl
Address : Laan Copes van Cattenburch 123, 2585 EZ The Hague. Tel. 070-3452088, 070-3450766
Costs 15 euros/per legalization (cash)
Open: 09.30:12.00 AM - XNUMX:XNUMX AM.
It also stated that with regard to income, and if applicable, the conversion to Euro is done according to the applicable daily exchange rates.
In this email from the Embassy, there is no longer any mention of a “Personal Form”, but that may be different now. However, if you want to know what a Personal Form looks like, take a look here.
http://www.thaiconsulatela.org/pdf/personal-data.pdf
The best advice I can give, however, is to send an email to the Embassy in The Hague yourself, because the conditions tend to change quite often.
Moreover, in The Hague they demand that certain documents also be legalized, I think.
If so, and what they are, you can also ask.
That way you have the latest information and you save unnecessary travel and/or legalization costs.

I also email the embassy every year before I apply for my Non imm O based on marriage.
I print out that email and put it at the top of the pile that I hand over to the embassy employee.
Never had a problem, always helpful.
Jan, legalize things as follows, first ask for an update at the Thai Embassy, maybe something has changed.
2. Certificate of Conduct, in English from the municipality.
(หนังสือรับรองความประพฤติ) http://www.justitie.nl
Legalization: Signature of Ministry of Justice at Buza + Thai Embassy.
3. Pension papers (income statement), with income statement per month or per year in English, an income of 800.000 baht per year or 65.000 baht per month รายได้)
Note: Here I was allowed to show a Dutch bank account with a minimum balance in Euros with an equivalent value of 800.000 Thb. the income statement.
I have had the bank statement legalized as follows: an Apostille statement from a civil-law notary + Legalization of the civil-law notary's signature at the relevant Court + Buza + Thai Embassy.
4. Health certificate in English (ใบรับรองแพทย์)
Legalization: Signature doctor at the BIG register + Buza + Thai Embassy.

Legalization municipality signature if applicable at Buza + Thai Emabassy.
Quite a job, but you will immediately receive a residence period of 1 year upon arrival, see my previous reactive for renewal.
Good luck and welcome to Thailand soon.

Hi Jan,
question 1 concerns an extract from the basic registration of persons
question 2 extract of birth certificate
question 3 excerpt from the population register
these applications for foreign use
4, a statement of good conduct, which is bilingual
5 medical certificate, in English (GP)
6 income statement in English, if necessary have it translated
all these documents must be legalized at the Foreign Office in The Hague
and if you have all the papers then go to the Thai Embassy, and hope everything is okay, a mistake or something wrong you can go back home to make it right
Regards Khan John
Thanks for your advice or tips… much appreciated.
Because of my preparation, I think I am well aware of which documents must be submitted and also which documents must first be legalized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs before being presented to the Embassy.
All in all it is a whole paper / document store, but luckily I still have a good overview.
I just didn't know what was meant by the 'form personal data'….but that is now clear to me.
Thanks again for your contribution.
ps I went to the Embassy in The Hague for the first time yesterday. Always used to go to Amsterdam.
I have to say that I found the reception area very unworthy of the Embassy. It is a cramped very small space with no privacy whatsoever. Then Amsterdam will look much better.
I was very satisfied with the help of the staff,
Have you considered applying for an 'ordinary' O visa and then an extension of stay in Thailand? Usually much simpler.
