Home » Reader question » Thailand question: How do I register at the Thai residential address?
Dear readers,
I would like to know how and where I have to register at my home address. For example, because I have to be able to prove where I live in order to get my driver's license.
Recently I had a one-way ticket from the Netherlands to Thailand and when I commented that I live in Thailand, I was asked if I could prove that.
I am married and live with my wife. I've heard about a blue and yellow book.
Please clarify this.
Regards,
Henk
Editors: Do you have a question for the readers of Thailandblog? Use it contact form..
The requirement to register in an amphur (municipality) is different for each municipality. Go (with your wife) to the appropriate mare and ask for their requirements.
Yes, the yellow house booklet is proof for foreigners that you live in Thailand.
This booklet is available at the Civil Registry.
Ask what you need exactly because it is not the same everywhere.
In Udonthani my wife had to come along, bring her blue house book, copies of passport, visa, etc. (the standard copies) and in addition there had to be a witness (eg family member, village head) who confirms that you do indeed live at that address.
Because I have also been confronted several times (application for driving license, purchase of a motorcycle, etc.) with the need to prove that I have a Thai address (in addition to my NL address, where I am also officially registered), and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website ( Netherlands Worldwide; www.nederlandwereldwijd.nl) had no answer to my question whether and how I could get a “certificate of residence” at the embassy in BKK, my Thai wife went to her amphur (Bang Khun Thian) in BKK. This with the question of how I could obtain the yellow house booklet, which can be used to demonstrate that I also have an address in BKK. Answer: Then we have to go to the amphur together and hand over a copy of my passport that has been ratified by the Dutch embassy, together with a completed questionnaire, which you will receive on the spot. My wife must then also show her ID and house book. Some time later you will receive an invitation from the amphur to pick up your booklet.
Perhaps this can differ per amphur, as "usual" with government regulations in Thailand!
Well haki you could leave that 'perhaps' out here in Korat without you know what kind of actions.
Once requested it properly and it was a great theater from the chief of the region [pujabaan] to the amphur of course the last visit [third time] was on Friday afternoon.
Then ripped the whole paperwork in half and rotted in the garbage can in front of the signer.
Didn't have to come back.
IMM provides them for a small fee, valid for ninety days I think.
Plenty of time to do your thing.
So Henk would take that route if I were you.
