Condo Yellow Book.

[Gee Bangkok]

Hi

 

A quick question. 

 

If I was to obtain a Yellow Book, can my Thai GF add her name like a Blue Book? 

 

Cheers

She's Thai so her name could only be in blue book.

 

If you don't have PR/are Thai national, your name can only be in yellow book.

OK.. No PR

 

Can I keep both Blue and Yellow?

Sure, if it's your condo, you should. You just can not be entered into the blue book, but it still belongs to owner of condo.

Yes, but if you are owner and thereby registered as host in the house book, you'll need to give permission for your girlfriend's name to be added. Her name will remain in the blue house book, until her name is added in another house book. Your name will remain in a yellow house book for foreigners.

I've bought (alas never moved into, the lady just kept it for 6 months since buying new) a place that had the blue book completely empty. Only when someone moves their permanent address (as a Thai or foreign PR holder in Thailand to blue book) then that person's infomation will be printed in the blue book. If for example a foreigner buys a new unit and doesn't enter any Thais or PR holders on the blue book, then it will remain empty.

 

Blue book comes with every condo, but yellow book is optional and only required for a foreigner.

 

So in your case - if you enter your girlfriend in there - which will have her previous address, the date when she moves in... and her next address and date she moves out listed, if she moves address elsewhere - then the blue book would have entries that it has now (if any) plus her entry. But if you don't enter her, nothing gets added and it remains as it is now.
