Thanks Kiwi. I ask the Thai embassy in the USA and said this won't work for me since I already have a birth certificate. They said I'll need to go to then Udon Thani District office.

Thanks Maestro. I've seen that too. I'm thinking about bringing my aunt or brother to Udon with me. They live a couple of hours north of Bangkok.

I don't. I was able to get a US passport and left Thailand on that.

Worth a try ???? My mom unfortunately doesn't remember the district we lived in at my birth, but I'm going through her records to see what I can find. I did find a copy of a TabienBaan from a place I lived in Korat, so I'll chase that lead as well.

Unfortunately not. I believe the minimum age for a Thai ID card was 15 or 16 when I lived there. I left Thailand before that.

Thanks BritTim, we tried the school route but no luck. Too long ago I think.

Hi all, Over the years this forum has offered me countless hours in helpful and entertaining content. Thanks for that ???? I have an interesting situation that I would like advice on: I'm trying to get my Thai passport but I've been told by the Thai Consulate in Los Angeles that I'll need my original birth certificate, or if that is unavailable, a "letter of birth certificate". Prior to contacting the Thai Consulate, I visited the Udon Thani district office to get my birth certificate. However, they where not able to find my birth certificate or any evidence of it. They gave me an official letter stating that it was not found. I do have a certified English translation of the original Thai birth certificate. I was born in Udon Thani over 30 years ago in a local clinic. The clinic no longer exists. My mom lives in USA now and it's not easy for her to travel. However, I have aunts, uncles and a brother in Thailand. I'll be visiting in June, so I'm planning on asking for a "letter of birth certificate". If anyone is familiar with this process, your help is greatly appreciated!
