I think it is a smidgen easier to obtain that than Thai citizenship, which is necessary to obtain a Thai ID card.

Or your passport which is a foreigner's ID in Thailand. As mentioned, unless you have Thai citizenship you can not get the standard Thai citizen ID card. So, a Thai DL or in my case I have an university photo ID card that looks impressive.

How about dropping the odd Tinglish phrase into your conversations back home: 'You think to mut' - 'Same same friend from me' - 'where you go?' or perhaps 'Me have big problem too much'

You'll not need a Thai ID - folks will get the idea for themselves.

What you would need would be a Tabien Ban - but since this is in Thai, it would be useless to your friends and you would not be able to use it as proof of your being an expatriate.

Get a Thai driver's license.

If you as a foreigner acquire thai citizenship, then you'll get a thai national id card.

Hmmm could go down Kao San Road and get a copy done.

My Thai health card really impresses the ladies back in the west.

I always find that hand writing notes, memos etc... in thai script gets a few funny looks too.
