Jared Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Hi Me and the girlfriend are hoping to get married next week, the only problem is we are struggling to find a regestration office to marry us. Im English and my girlfriend is Thai, we are looking for one that specialises in Thai Farrnag marrages as the few we have been in contact with only marry Thai to Thai. So if anyone could let me know the address or Phone number of an office that they have used, i would be most gratefull. Also we were told by one office that we will need to bring 2 witnesses has anyone else done this. hope someone can help! Many thanks Jared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordlys Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Where do you live? If you are in Sukhumvit area Khet Prakanong in a building at the foot of a bridge crossing canal on Thonglor is probably the closest Khet office (amphur in Bangkok = khet). There is no such thing as "one that specialises in Thai Farrnag marrages" as they all serve Thai citizens whatever the citizenship of the spouse to be married.

Jared Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 Thanks for your help guys, we have managed to find one. This one has married many Thai and foreign nationals. The other ones we contacted dont often marry Thai and foreign nationals so they were asking for us to bring a translator and 2 witnesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazmlb Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 The standard fee is 200 baht as well, we got asked for 500baht because 3 people had to stamp the papers i guess, 100 baht each tea money, we didnt need a translator or witnesses, we just lobbed up and had no problems.

Bang Rak Marriage registration office should be the right place, if you and your partner are in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
