      Place for photo on both English and Thai document.

      You are advised "Providing false information to an anofficer, shall be punished under Penal Code".

      ( 1 ) To be Completed by Recording Person

              Officer to complete this section.

              ??? When do they / should they fill this in - before or after completion of form ???    If before it means a double trip to the desk !!!  If after will the "Recording Person" complete and sign ???

              ??? Do you get a completed copy to keep ???     ??? Do you get a signed ( "Recording Person" ) copy to keep ???

 

      ( 2 ) Foreign National Information

              I assume you fill this in before you give this to the "Recording Officer"

                        ??? Does OPTIONAL mean you don't have to complete ???    NB - I don't like this, obviously, but sometimes needs must: as I only use Email they have that anyway !!! 

 

            ( 2.5 ) Vehicle

 

            ( 2.6 ) Frequently Visited Places or Premises ( such as Club, Restaurant, Shop, Hospital etc ).

                       ??? Depends of literal translation of "frequently" - hospital every 3 months is not frequently.    ???"Don't Go Out Much Anymore !" is local market good enough answer ???

 

           ( 2.7 ) Emergency Contact Person

                      ( 2.7.1 ) Thai Nationality Contact Person

                                            they live a long way away ( could not respond anyway if you were at deaths door ) - how are you going to get a local Thai person to say "Okay" ???

                                            I have been in that situation once before, fortunately a friend happened to make a visit not long after I fell ill and just in  time .......  the situation has changed and there is no

                                            one locally to make a call to who could get here in time - I treat myself ( I have multiple drug allergies and have a DNR form already accepted ).

They don't car what you fill in so long as they have a completed form. That's my experience at Khon Kaen last month.

Please note that the three documents you list are not a requirement according to clause 2.22 of Immigration Bureau Order 138/2557 and therefore should be submitted only if the immigration officer specifically asks for them.

I did my extension of stay at Changwattana recently.  I filled in very little of the Foreign National Information Form, which I was given while the immigration officer was reviewing my documents.  You wrote a lot of questions about what to fill in, but truthfully, it doesn't matter, so just use your common sense, I would say.  I.e. your parent's names, just put their names (whether they are deceased or not is not relevant); if you have no foreign address, put "none".  I did not put any places frequently visited, I did not put any vehicle or bank account information and for social media put only my email address.  So a large portion of the form was blank.  For the Thai emergency contact person, I did not write anyone.  That was the only thing the officer asked me about and I said I did not have a Thai emergency contact person.  She just took the paper and put it on the pile.  

 

You do not get a copy.  I would not worry about the section for the recording officer.  As I noted, I filled it out sitting at the officer's desk.  I did not have to leave and come back. I have no idea if anyone ever filled that part in.  Like lungbing said, they actually don't care, so no need to worry. .
