hi - my local amphur has many requirements for obtaining the yellow book. Some of them requires a trip to my embassy in Bangkok to get my passport verified! Other requires involving a certified translater! Can't be bothered with that. I see here several get it easily. My question is : do I have to use the local amphur or can I use another? Thank you.

I need a certification for my wife's thai passport from the ministry of foreign affairs. Did you need an appointment to get this done?

I was born in Thailand, moved to the UK when I was 4. I've been trying to get my Thai ID card for a while so I can permanently move back to Thailand and the short of this long journey, is they are requesting a DNA test and photo evidence of me and my mother- I am flying my Mum out to Thailand from UK to do all of this. However I just found I did get issued a Thai passport once as a kid- which my step dad just found but totally forgot about. It expired in 2002.

Does this make a difference? Should I be able to get a Thai passport and Thai ID without all the extra time and expense of the DNA test and endless trips back to Thailand to get this sorted?

I thought we had all the ducks in a row, I have got a Thai marriage certificate stamped and certified, yellow book, Thai ID card and trying to work towards a marriage visa. Now I need to open a Thai bank account to season funds however after having been to several banks that refuse to open an account without a visa, my wife is now taking me to a Chinese bank, I’m having serious reservations about this.

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???

How do I get the physical DTV card?

I already have my printed DTV and arrived in Thailand 4 days ago.

How to get the card and immigration to do so would be of great help 👍🏽

My son was born in Thailand and his his mother is a Thai citizen so obviously he’s (half) Thai.

When he was 7 he came with me to the UK (I’m a British citizen) and we have both lived together in the UK for the past 7 years

Now he’s 14 he is returning to his mother in Thailand to finish his studies at an international school.

His Thai passport has expiring a few years ago

He has years left on his British passport.

My situation and question is this

If he returns to Thailand on his British passport, he will get a visa exemption at immigration.

However, he has a Thai ID card and in my opinion he doesn’t need a visa once the exemption expires because he’s a Thai national and once in the country that’s it.

But his mother thinks he has to come in on a Thai passport otherwise he will end up needing a visa.

Am I correct?

Or is his mother correct?

Thanks 🙏

Hi all I have a yellow house book a thai id card issued in Nathon and I have funds available I was wondering if I could get a DTV if I was to take up Muay Thai I also obviously have a house and a business here but currently use a non o visa but it’s a bit of a pain any advice would be appreciated thanks

Hi hopefully you guys can point me in right direction,

Couple of quick questions.

Do I need my Thai ID before I can apply for my Thai passport?

What documents will I need to prove to apply for passport ID ?

My mother is Thai but I was born and live in the UK, we have houses and land in Bangkok and surrounding areas, will this help me at all?

Thanks 🙏

Some visa questions (and thanks very much in advance)

My family and I are starting the process of moving from Nevada to Hua Hin. My wife is a Thai citizen and my 19 year old daughter was born in Bangkok. We moved back to the USA when my daughter was 2 years old so the only Thai ID we have for her is her birth certificate and she has a US passport. My mother and I are American.

Questions: For my daughter, do we need to go to the consulate in Los Angeles to get her a Thai passport, or can she just get a 90 day visa online with my mom and me and then get Thai ID after she gets to Thailand, or can she just show her birth certificate and get a visa on arrival without a return ticket?

How long does it take to get the online 90 day visa, and do we have to wait for my mom to get her US passport to apply.

Would rather not go to LA if possible, long drive, hotel stays, etc But also don't want to have to buy round trip tickets.

Thanks so much!
