Today I went to immigration in Bangkok to apply for a 1-year extension of my Non-O visa. The officer said that all my documents are perfect, but they want to check if the landlord's ID card matches the house registration of the apartment.

I already have a copy of the landlord's ID card, but immigration asked for the house registration (Tabien Baan) to confirm the address. I'm not sure if the landlord will agree to give me a copy of it, and I don't know what I should do if they refuse. Has anyone had a similar experience or any advice?

Thai Immigration is simply asking for proof that the person renting the property to you is legitimately connected to that address.

To satisfy this, they normally want copies of three documents from the landlord:

1. Copy of the landlord’s Thai ID card

2. Copy of the House Registration Book (Tabien Baan – ทะเบียนบ้าน) showing the property address

3. Sometimes a copy of the condo title deed (Chanote) if it is a condominium

All copies should be signed by the landlord confirming they are true copies.

This is standard procedure. Immigration uses these documents to confirm that the address listed in your application is real and that the landlord is the legal owner or registered resident of the property.

If the property was rented through an agent or condo management office, they often already have these documents and can provide them. Otherwise, the tenant usually just asks the landlord for copies of the ID card and Tabien Baan for immigration purposes, which is a very normal request in Thailand.

As long as those copies are provided and signed, it usually resolves the issue.



How the Tenant Gets These:

You The tenant simply asks the landlord or agent for:

“Copy of house registration book (Tabien Baan) for immigration.”

This is very normal in Thailand.

Most landlords already have it ready for foreigners.

For your future retirement visa extensions, always keep a file with:

• Passport copy

• Lease agreement

• TM30 receipt

• Landlord ID copy

• Tabien Baan copy

Immigration officers love seeing a complete address

What can you do when owner of house has never had a Tabien Baan and now lives overseas and not cooperating ? I need one.

Is it possible to get your name on tabien baan, blue book or yellow book, while under a dtv.

Prefer comments from people who have actually done it before.

I have a roundabout Thai visa question. My Thai wife of 45 years has owned a few houses in Thailand. One in NamPhong and 1 or 2 in Nakon Phanom. But I have never seen an ownership document like a Property Deed - โฉนดที่ดิน. So I was wondering where she could get that document. ( she isn’t very good with paperwork). So if I secure that document, I was thinking of applying for a 1 year non-immigrant visa to visit my wife ( family) in Thailand. We are both in Florida currently, but technically we would fly to Thailand together and then I would be visiting her. I have had 3-4 non-immigrant visas in the past but over 10 years ago. It seems that the TM 30 is more important now than in the past and maybe I could be put on the House Registration that would simplify the TM 30 process. Good idea or some other alternative???

Hi. I am asking for my wife. She is spanish and actually on a visa exempt. We would like to do the marriage visa ( I am thai national ), the tabien baan is in Bangkok. Is possible for her to apply in a different Immigration other than Bangkok? If someone know about any reliable agent that could help with all the paperworks and make it smoother process, that would be really apreciated. Thank you

Does anyone on here have a yellow house book and if so can you tell me the benefits please.

Hi, anyone know how I can change my address in Thailand, and the cost? I have a retirement visa. Many thanks!

Hi all hope everyone's well.bit stuck currently close to applying for my marrige visa got everything but the tm30 i live in my own house with wife and daughter.never had one how do I get one do I need to go to immigration office cheers

I've got three choices for sending tabien baan to the Savannaket consulate for the non-o spousal visa:

1. My wife's new tabien baan, but the address doesn't match the one on her ID card.

1. Her old tabien baan that matches her ID card address.

1. Sending both tabien baans with the ID and hoping for the best.

Any thoughts on which option makes more sense to submit?
