Getting married, so much hassle.

To all you newly weds, once you marry a Thai you become responsible for any debt. 

 

Anyone out there can add to this issue? 

Yes, I can, that's not correct.   Marrying a Thai does not mean that you're encumbered with her debts incurred in her sole name before marriage.

Mmm - so you're responsible for all her debts she accrued prior to marriage -  however -  everything she owned prior to marriage is hers only.

 

Is that true ????

No, it's not true...not the debt bit, anyway.  It is a frequently regurgitated Thaivisa myth.

do these stupid burocrats think that forging a document then laminating it is in any way easier than forging a document and not laminating it? F***ing morons...

It's not just about potential forgeries, neither is it about "f***ing morons", it's about access to the actual document that may need to receive a stamp or notation, for instance.  Have you ever tried to remove a paper document from it's lamination?  Try it and see what happens.
