Correct but she got a new one.

Not ID number, that never changes from being issued.

The Thai ID number on her old ID card and new will be the same.

It is definitely possible and they are not the same.

It isn't possible, a Thais ID number never changes for any reason.

Could you imagine the consequences if any Thai could simply visit an Amphoe, change their name, obtain new ID and there was no record of it.

If the Thai ID number is the same as on her TB, then the changes were recorded.

 

I'm sorry, but the tale just doesn't add up.

Even if for any reason the Amphoe 'forgot' to issue the certificate, or your wife misplaced it, there would still be a record on the system, which can be located through her ID number.

How many times, nothing to misplace - it was not an amendment.
 

She went to Isaan where her Mum was registered without her old ID, got a DNA test and a shiny brand new ID. Not sure maybe 10-15 years ago.

 

How this was actually achieved? I wasn’t there to tell you the fine details.

Would you like me to attach a picture of them - haha.

 

End of story, I’m dreaming to get a visa based on our marriage unless we can dig up her old ID and that’s not going to happen.

As, I suspected, she changed her surname after you married.
She therefore would have been issued a certificate of name change as posted above by @brianthainess

 

Possible she doesn't remember and has misplaced it.

Go to the Provincial Amphoe, and they should be able to trace the change of surname.

All our Certs. are laminated, hard to lose and protected from the elements. Just saying. doesn't help the OP but may in the future.

What you're describing would be a gangster's paradise.

A new name and ID with no trace of the old name and ID.

 

You married the invisible woman.  😉
