  1. 1. Is your "missus" Thai and 2. does she have a child of whom you are the father and 3. is this child registered in the blue book of which your "missus" speaks?
  2. The requirement of your mother's marriage registration certificate is not only odd, it is irrelevant to your application for your Thai birth certificate. The rules for the acquisition of Thai nationality by birth have changed since the Nationality Act was promulgated in 1965. The latest amendment I have on file is from 1992, applicable also to persons born before that, and reads as follows: The nationalities of the child and its parents are entered on the Thai birth certificate. Apparently, you derive your Thai nationality from your mother and the embassy in Finland perhaps wants to get as many official documents as possible that attest your mother's Thai nationality, which is presumably stated on her birth certificate, house registration entry, ID card, passport, and marriage certificate.
  3. Removed an incomprehensible post (Pray-hoot)
  4. Removed a post that was incomprehensible off-topic gibberish.
  5. @Sparktrader I am still genuinely interested in knowing what you meant with "lb story"
  6. Whatever bank one goes to, it is important to make it clear that one wishes to apply for a savings account. Otherwise, the bank employee may think that one wants a current account and apply the requirements for that type of account.
  7. I had the same experience with an SCB branch in Bangkok where I asked to apply for a savings account many years ago. The lady at the counter was very apologetic that she could not accept my application because I had no work permit. When I asked if my house registration book would do, her face lit up and as I did not have the yellow book with me she accepted a scanned copy which I emailed to her from my phone right then and there.
  8. That's one area where the pink ID card can be useful for a foreigner. Passport numbers change from one passport to the next, the ID card number never changes. It was for this reason that I had Kasikorn Bank unlink my account from my passport and link it to my ID card.
  9. In what school's pronunciation guide? Each school seems to have its own.
  10. You are more likely to get a useful answer if you indicate at what Thai Embassy or consulate the e-visa application will be made.
  11. My guess is that PPC is this poster's way of referring to Passport Control, without any concern whether the readers know or can guess what he means with it.
  12. Removed an incomprehensible post.
  13. Removed an incomprehensible post (ferrlung) and the reply to it.
  14. Removed an off-topic post and the replies to it.
  15. The story related by Eff1n2ret is hearsay and probably not accurate and/or complete. This is probably what happened at the immigration desk at BKK airport: – Thai national (TN) presents her new Thai passport obtained from the Thai embassy in the UK. – Immigration official (IO): "Where is your other passport?" – TN presents her UK passport. – IO expected to be shown TN's old Thai passport with the last departure stamp from Thailand, but getting instead her UK passport he takes the easy way out and stamps her in on that passport.
  16. Removed a post that was not in English language (tirak, kwai) and the reply to it.
  17. If I were no totally hopeless with he use of social media (Facebook, Twitter, TikTok. Instagram, Reddit, Pinterest and all that jazz) I would post to applaud the embassy in Malaysia for their contribution to the effort of the Ministry of Sports and Tourism to fight "overtourism" in Thailand. Spreading such things on social media seems to be an effective way in Thailand of getting the attention of the government.
  18. Removed a troll post (wuflu)
