aka_jack Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 HI there i would like some info on getting a yellow book ie getting registered on my thai friends house registration. I have been told to go to the british embassy and get my passport translated on to some sort of form and then going to a thai goverment office in bangkok to register it and then going to the local office in hua hin to get it issued ! confusing ! any ideas ?

lopburi3 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I suspect it would involve having your passport copy/translation certified at the Embassy and registered at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make it a legal document. Basically the same process used for registration of a foreign marriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InterestedObserver Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 What is your relationship with this "Thai friend" and do you live at his/her address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombkk Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I am in the same situation, and the Prakhanong district officr asks for a translation of my birth certificate in addition to the translation of the passport. Has anybody ever heard of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I have never obtained a yellow book as have had no need for it. My DL is of the lifetime variety and actually don't bother driving anyhow. Believe what I posted is likely the process for what your office wants from what you wrote. Always good to have proof of address of some type but don't believe it will be required for registration service. When you apply for the yellow book am sure blue book holder will have to assist you.

Mario2008 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Different amphurs seem to have different requirements. Always inform at your local amphur what they want is the only advice one can give regarding required documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombkk Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Different amphurs seem to have different requirements. Always inform at your local amphur what they want is the only advice one can give regarding required documents. I believe there must be a law or decreee about this. The amphurs that make up the rules just don't know about it. If we could find a copy, that would help.Alas, I wou;dn't know where to start searching.
