@Kent *******

a blue book is a tambien Bahn (house book) that all Thais are registered in for them to obtain an ID card residence etc etc etc etc

A yellow book can be obtained by a foreigner 2 ways…a blue book (tambien Bahn) housemaster says yore residing within the residence…most likely scenarios are wife, cool Thai family you helped out, business associate, GF/significant other

A foreigner buys a condo ahd gets the yellow book for ownership…Pattaya is known to give blue books so everywhere is different

With the yellow book or blue book (Pattaya) you apply for a pink ID card with a 13 digit thai ID Number

With the pink id card you can use the 13 digit id number to get a DL, open a bank acct, check into hotels, get a SIM card etc etc

Plus it’s a wallet sized id card
