jack71 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 I want to buy a new pickup with finance and intend to pay 20% deposit. When I moved into my condo 5 months ago I signed a contract and the landlord has given me a copy of the yellow book and POA allowing me to register my name. After reading whats involved with this process I wonder if its worth the effort. If you recently purchased a new car, did they ask you for the yellow book. Thus far, only Ford have asked for 1 yr yellow book registration. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Some proof of address is needed when purchasing a car has been my experience. It can be a letter from the embassy or immigration, a yellow book or a work permit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I doubt that you'll get finance unless you have a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesseFrank Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I doubt that you'll get finance unless you have a job. Never had a job, in fact I hate working, had 3 finances approved in the past with each time one or another BG as guarantor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankee99 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Interesting your landlord is a falang i assume. So can more then one falang be registered in a yellow tabien baan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Interesting your landlord is a falang i assume. So can more then one falang be registered in a yellow tabien baan? Yep interesting !! first time ever heard of that, extra Thai people can be in the Thai blue house book so maybe the same for yellow book. Although thought you had to be staying here in Thailand a while before you are given a yellow book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I have a yellow book and me going in and out of the country on a M - O visa. This year doing an extension of stay, whilst at immigration sorting a huge amount of paperwork Mrs.Trans was fined for not making a personal trip to immigration to inform them I lived at her house , we've been living in it for 7 years and I was issued a yellow book. She was also told that if immigration police had called at our place with no knowledge of me living there she would have been fined 4000bht . Yet every border card I fill in has my address on it.

BSJ Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Is yellow book for condo owners? My missus has a blue book for the house, I've seen it, and she doesn't believe there is such a thing as a yellow book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure you can get it with a condo too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Is yellow book for condo owners? My missus has a blue book for the house, I've seen it, and she doesn't believe there is such a thing as a yellow book! Well basically not just for condo owners it is for a comfirmation of address and you can get one from your main province government office. It was my Mrs that went about getting it for me It took a bit of time and some hoops and jumps, well it did for me in my province but it has been beneficial. Glad I got one because I was fed up with getting a letter confirming my address from the local police station or the local government office when I was to renew my 1year marriage extension. In my province, I not know the value of it in other provinces in which way they go about it but it gives me to stay in our house for as long as I live so better than leases etc. Edited July 13, 2014 by Kwasaki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how it has any relationship to a lease or rental agreements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuddlycat Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Just bought a used truck (Ford Ranger) by cash using a certificate of residence from Immigration in Bangkok. It took us 2 weeks to get it by EMS with the cost of B200. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a bit off subject but I have found the yellow book does more than just proof of address here in Suk, some people get a Uferstuct ( excuse spelling ) or a 30 year lease different circumstances maybe it varys I'm told I do not need either we own our house and the land is owed by my wife of course.

BSJ Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Thanks for the info guys. My next retirement extension is at the end of October which I will do in Pattaya, but in the following year we move up country so I will organise a yellow book to ease the future dealings with officialdom.....and the next extension! I hate all the BS we have to deal with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ain't straight forward but worth doing IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
