Thank you very much for your replies

Hi All

Sorry but I have searched but haven't found anything that matches my question on the forum, so hoping you can help please.

I am Thai by birth and my father is Thai but we have lived in the UK practically my whole life. I need to renew my Thai passport which I foolishly allowed to lapse in 2009. In order to renew it, the Thai embassy in London have said I need to register my name on the House register (Tabien Baan) anywhere in Thailand and then apply for a Thai ID card. A friend has said I can put my name on their house registry. They live in Samut Prakan. Can you please direct me as to where I need to go to do this and what paperwork etc I am required to produce in order to get the Tabien Baan? Do I need to take the person who has allowed me to use their address with me when I register?

thank you very much in advance
