wow so weird, and Im american. I do speak Thai - so maybe they were a bit easier on me. Im sorry you are having the run around. 🙁 Have you asked the Embassy for a letter stating they do not issue that type of paper?

You mean a birth certificate showing your legally related? I have never heard or been asked for anything different than that.

no it happens all the time. It has happened to me police stop taxis all the time and will check the passports and confirm with taxi driver where you were picked up and dropped off....Has happened to me since I moved here at12 I'm almost 40 now. This is very common on busses and trains too

You know like when you go on the highway from pattanakarn near there.....they are stationed there, because that's right where everyone merges to get to the airport and the police station is right there in sarinakarin.
