if for a letter you can write in Thai, and add the English word Thailand so that everyone realises which country

[friendlyfiend]

A bit odd that there's no street name in that address - only a street number.

Not sure whether it is a house number or it actually means house number 96 in village (muban) 5.

Then it would not be written with "/" but as "96 M. 5".

ALSO! Check the correctness of the Thai script version. Slight typo seems like.

In Amphoe Mueang there is no

ต. .ปากเพียว (Pak Phiao)

Guess they mean ???:

ต. ปากเพรียว -> Tambon Pak Phriao

[mikebike]

Was thinking the same... our rural address has no street but has house number and moo...

[Maestro]

96/5 is the house number. There are perhaps no street names in that part of the town, or there were none at the time the dwelling was assigned that address.

I have my doubts that the address is complete.

This Tambon Pak Phriao is essentially the city center of Saraburi (not rural as my first thought was).

A complex layout of sois and streets.

But who knows.

Would the tambon (market) not be correctly spelt เพรียว in Thai?

Yes, see post #8.

I have done some random search for adresses in the area,

Seems like they all have a street name attached.

Like here e.g.:

http://www.thaitambon.com/tambon/thotprovtlist.asp?ProvCode=19

[Maestro]

Also I see ปากเพรียว as Pak Phriao and, to use the Royal Thai General System of Transcription (RTGST) uniformly for the entire address, the name ขวัญชนก เชื้อนุ่ม as Khwanchanok Chueanum

[KhunBENQ]

RTGS is the best advice.

So in total this makes up for:

ขวัญชนก เชื้อนุ่ม Khwanchanok Chueanum
96/5 96/5
ต. ปากเพรียว Tambon Pak Phriao
อ. เมือง Amphoe Mueang
จ.สระบุรี 18000 Saraburi 18000

(with the suspicion that a street name might be missing after 96/5)

...

I was thinking that there is a หมู่ (Mu) missing in the address, before the Tambon, if there is no street name. Perhaps it is 96 หมู่ 5

[Maestro]

I just had a look at the address of some immigration offices on the website of the Immigration Bureau and see that for a big city like Chiang Mai, the house number is followed directly by a tambon name:

60 ต.สุเทพ อ.เมือง จว.เชียงใหม่

50200

[Johpa]

I was thinking that there is (Mu) missing in the address, before the Tambon, if there is no street name. Perhaps it is 96 5

This is a common form of address in Thailand. The 96 is the house number and the 5 is the mubaan (village) number within the sub-district (tambon). Even in the larger cities the postal addresses can still broken down into the older mubaan numbers although those villages have long disappeared. But it has become more common in the cities to also include the street name as well.

[DavidHouston]

Thank you, Johpa, for that explanation. In my Land and House home in Phuket, the หมู่บ้าน is divided into smaller "subdivisions" and the subdivision number comes before the house number. Such that, for example, if one lives in หมู่ 10, one might live in the house designated 64/72 where 64 is the subdivision indicator and 72 is the house number. The subdivision is also given a name which tend to be standard countrywide within the Land and House developed areas.

I understand that sometimes หมู่บ้าน are given a unique name, and sometimes just a number. Do you find this in your area?

Thanks for your assistance.

In my region the first number (64) is the house number and the second number (72) is the number of the village within the sub-district. Where I live there is nothing remotely resembling a "sub-division" of property.

Both the village (mubaan) and the sub-district (tambon) will of course have names. In urban areas the older names of some of the original areas might not even be known to newer residents. In the less populated districts where I maintain my home, it is not unusual to see several distinct smaller villages, especially in minority areas, with separate names but be considered a single administrative unit sharing a single postal number.

The use of the term "mubaan" is now applied to housing developments although traditionally a mubaan, or village, would have a temple. A true mubaan, or village, will have a recognized headman elected by the residents, and the sub-district, will have an elected kamnaan, although in the more recent era the role of the kamnaan had been replaced/usurped by the sub-district development office (O.P.T.)

Up north, many villages in the hills began as simply work camps and have the word "Pang" as part of the name indicating it started off as something less than a village. You also see this term used for elephant camps (pang chang).
