Onerak Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I have a rental condo with 10-year lease in Jomtien. Can I put my name in the house registration book? The owner lives in Banglamung and will cooperate with any paperwork needed, including chanute, ID card etc. Owner does not live in the same condo. Is it possible and what is the process?

scubascuba3 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Can't put it in the blue book. Could try the yellow book but it's a big PITA to do that if you are under Pattaya City Hall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they ask for documents that are hard to obtain or unwilling to do so unless done through an agent? Is there any agent that can do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for threads on "yellow book" and you can get the detail how to apply. One agent quoted 5,000 baht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterw42 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) If you have the owners cooperation, you can go in the yellow book and get a pink ID etc. (Yellow book is house registration for foreigners, blue is for Thais) The main requirement is an official MFA translation of your name into Thai. See below for Pattaya City Hall requirements. You dont need to be married, but the marriage process already produces the required documents/translation (3-4 on the list) Edited May 2, 2022 by Peterw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example for immigration retirement extension I use an agent and I don't need to submit any paper work except my lease (no TM 30, 90-day report etc.). While buying or selling a car/motorcycle I used an agent, I did not need any paperwork for example residence certificate. If no paperwork needed, I am ready to pay 5K. Is it possible you can post the agent info or PM me. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 FYI: I bought a condominium in Bangkok and maybe a month later I visited an office to get a Tabian Baan. My name is on the chanote. But my name is not in the Tabian Baan. At the office they told me I have to have at least Thai residency to get my name into the Tabian Baan. I have a Thai business visa and work permit - that is not enough. So if you don't have Thai Residency I guess you won't be able to get you name inside that book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I deleted the agent Line, maybe check a few. 5k wasted i reckon especially if not an owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have your name in a yellow house book though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
