I have a yellow house book with my name in and didn’t need to translate my passport. Blue house book requires permanent residence which takes years

You can't get your name in a blue book unless you have PR.

I did it July 2025. There is no Yellow Book other than you being a tenant for the Blue Book (Thai nationals). Two separate documents.

Even though I own the condo, my Thai wife and our daughter are in the Blue Book. My Yellow book is like I am their tenant.

My Thai wife had to sign me in (to get the Yellow Book).
