Yeah that's what I meant. But can money solve it?No, if I am the land lord I won't give anything. Why should I? Why I need to give my house book, and other personal information to a stranger? Copy of ID is ok because when you rent, you must get a copy of the landlord's ID also so that you know the person who signed the lease as landlord.

Good idea! Money can almost solve everything...thxJust ask your landlord to go to Immigration with you and your father to report that you are living in his home. In case he doesn't know the rule, tell him to bring his house book and ID card. Offer him 500 or 1000 baht and I bet he'll change his mind.

You know I'm stressing. I'm 14 and my dad is 63. He is sick! We both foreigners have to survive...I just told you my opinion regarding your situation, but somehow you just start flaming [emoji6]
With your attitude it will be difficult to solve your problem.

I know! But will the landlord/house owner agree with "the" contract? Giving their ID, House Book, Personal Info...for foreigners..
Like ubonjoe said above -
If renting a house, you need to get a rental contract (on paper) from the landlord along with a signed copy of the house owner's ID card and a signed copy of his/her house book.
Then to the nearest Immigration Office and report your (you and your father's) new address to them.

The current adress, where we're living, is not from my father. My father rented the house...The only address immigration are interested in is the actual address you’re staying at at any given time.

Hello, I think I need some help with the following subject:
We as foreigners were registered to an adress from a far Thai family member, who owns a house in Lobburi. So that my father and I can live in Thailand as foreigners.
Now that far family member doesn't want my father and I to be registered on their adress.
What are we suppose to do now? Can we still live in Thailand (without a living adress)?
All the help is greatly appreciated!

National service, is my biggest worry. Money? Nah, daddy has enough[emoji28]True but it's not a given or automatic, if I was the OP I would seek legal advice from a lawyer in the Netherlands about his status,having to do national service in Thailand may be the least of his worries.Its not that easy to fetch up in the Netherlands and start up if you don't have family living there,if you have money no problem of course.

My god! You spent much time in this. By far the most useful reaction. Thank you for who ever you are.Hi Adam! My info on this subject is very up-to-date. And I'm really glad you're thinking about the draft well in advance.
#1 Unless you or your parents have already informed Thai authorities, there is no requirement for you to tell them about your Dutch nationality. So DON’T tell them! If you entered Thailand as Thai, you’re Thai not Dutch.
#2 The Thai military draft runs off birth dates on Thai ID cards; there’s a quota system for each area depending on personnel needs. IF Thai officials already know about your Dutch nationality, DON’T get that Thai ID card. I believe you’ll fall through the cracks.
#3 DON’T follow the OP’s advice to do ROTC in school—why train to be a slave…worse, a killer slave? ROTC will leave you permanently in the military reserves, ready for call tp active duty at any time. ROTC only gets you out of pulling that ticket.
#4 IF you reach 18 & are called to the draft, deferrals are readily available for education until age 25. You MUST legally show up. However, there is no legal requirement for you to draw lots. Pulling a ticket gives you a two-thirds chance of NOT being drafted. If you DON’t pull a chit, they’ll just send you home with no legal penalty—as of today, no telling what will be the situation in five years. For now, you can be a conscientious objector by not drawing lots.
#5 AFTER you turn 18, there are lots of choices &, as one OP mentioned, you can leave Thailand until you’re past draft age.
#6 Perhaps, as many of us hope, conscription slavery will have been abolished in Thailand. If we’re really lucky, the military itself will have been judged useless & trashed, as well.
#7 Meanwhile, don’t stress over this. Just guide yourself by planning with the draft in mind.
The lesson is that military violence in history has never proven a permanent solution to conflict over social issues. Peace works. Violence does not.
Good luck, Adam!

I moved to Thailand because there were some problems in the Netherlands with the authorities.
Yeah. I should think in advance, other my future is blown to hell. Now learning Thai about 6 month. I failed the Thai Subjects at school. Now I am for 1 month in summer school. Although my mom is Thai, in the Netherlands living for 13 years we never talked Thai. We spoke Dutch with eachother.
So having a hard time getting good on a Thai School as a foreigner + being stressed about Military. I just want a normal life. That includes
-Going to school
-Going to college
-Marry me a beatiful honey
-Having Kids
-Take for my family
-Die peacefully
1. Too late, already told.
2. Recently got Thai ID
3. Was thinking about that. People say when you are a Military Refugee from grade 10 to 12. You won't be conscripted.
4. Umm yeah...
5. No, I like Thailand. But I'd like to avoid Military.
6. That ain't no happening since the past elections this week...if you know what I mean.
7. Son of God! Hallelujah!

Thanks! Usefull!No, it's Dutch law apparently. Not UK law. I am a Brit as well and was surprised by this law. It only applies to Dutch persons dual nationality. I think this lad has additional complications as well as it looks like his father was naturalised to be a Dutch citizen and also his mother is Thai.

I know, I don't care. I like Thailand. But I want to avoid the military. Ya know?I think that you should check this very carefully. You might have bigger issues here than just military service. You could lose your Dutch passport if you spend a long time out of Holland.

Very useful! Thank you very much!To the OP...I have two boys, over 20 years old, both dual passport holders, Thai and Australian. Neither country has a a problem with that, but being a dual passport holder does not grant you exemption from being conscripted.
They attended high school here in Thailand and from Years Matayom 4 through to 6, they were enrolled in army cadet training (Lor Dor), which required them to turn up to the provincial cadet training centre one afternoon once per week during the school term. Upon successful completion of the 3 years of cadet training, they are issued a certificate that exempts them from military conscription...they may be called up in a time of war however. Cadet training is not difficult and most high schools offer it to their male & female students.
Another way to exempt yourself from the conscription lottery is $$$

Hi everyone,
I am worried about something. First I'll introduce myself.
My name is Adam and I am 13 years old. 3 months ago I moved from the Netherlands to Thailand. I have a Dutch and Thai passport. In December I wil get a Thai ID.
My father is from South America and my mom is Thai.
Will I have to serve the Thai Military Service?
I rather not serve. I'd like to study and make something of my life, then serving the military. Is there anything to avoid serving the Military? Because I see that every male Thai citizen is required from the age of 20 to serve the Military by determined by the lottery.
All the replies/help would be very kind of you! Thank you...
Can you live as foreigner in Thailand without a current-living adress?
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
