Do immigration still offer the "certificate of residence" I have to do my 5 year driving licence and in previous years used a combination of Yellow and Blue book. But in the new world if closer foreigner scrutiny I think they might want a certificate of residence. I'm in Prachinburi.

Hi, my first 90 report is due end September based on TM30 showing rented apartments in BKK.

I bought a villa in Hua Hin and should have the yellow book mid August.

I aim to wait until I have the yellow book then re apply the TM30 showing HH address for the 90 day report.

Am I missing anything for this simple move to make it easy at immigration

My wife, a Thai national, flew into Bangkok yesterday (July 1 2025). She called her City Council, Samut Prakan, today, about my "Yellow Book". The lady from the Council (she remembered her and my daughter when they got their "Blue Book" and invited her to come with me on Friday July 4th, directly, no waiting time.

Confusing it is, the officer said, it may take 2 months to get that document. I thought it is a half day (if that), I am the owner of that condo.

Is there something wrong?

I want to convert my German drivers license to Thai. Can I use the yellow book as Proof of Residency?

Hi members

Can you open Thai Bank account with a non -0 visa...

If you have Thai Spouse ( in defacto relationship 10 yes)

And intend to live in her home... no children involved

A question about house books, as I feel I might be missing something here. For a foreigner married to a Thai lady, what is the difference between, or advantage of, having your own yellow book or being included on your wife's blue book? TIA

I want to ask, has anyone here ever experienced the same thing as me:

I just went to the district office to get my yellow book (house registration), but there was an error with the worker when inputting my ID number. then the district office worker took back my yellow book (house registration).

the worker from the district office said, she had to report to a bigger office to open the system so the worker could change my ID number.

Does anyone here know how long the process for cases like this usually takes?

Does a yellow book house registration confer a TM-30?

I did the border run two months ago... I had recently obtained the "yellow book" and "pink ID card"....I thought this established my residence... not so..... when I went to immigration a couple days ago to obtain the 30 day extension... I was told that I had needed to do the TM30 upon my return... 800 Baht fine... plus the 1900 Baht for the extension... at least I did get my extension ..

I went to Kalasin Immigration for an extension of stay due to retirement. I got there at the opening time of 08:30 and was first in line and out the door at 09:30. I am a Canadian so use a letter from my embassy as proof of income. I showed that my Passport with a copy of each used page, my yellow book and pink ID card and a copy of each. The officer then asked for a copy of my wife's ID card and Bluebook and I had them with me so showed them. I had the TM8 form filled out and a picture. And the reentry form for one entry and picture. That was it, previous years they had me sign a couple of other forms, but not this year. ฿1,900 for the extension and ฿1,000 for the single reentry. They also updated my 90 day reporting. A very simple process. my praise to the Kalasin Immigration department.
