Crossy Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 As a further follow up to my earlier thread here https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/1173670-translation-and-legalisation-of-uk-documents-recommended-agent/ my friend has managed to get his certificate from the UK and all legalised by the Department of Consular Affairs at CW. He used an agent but seems to have already forgotten which one (did I mention he's totally useless?) Next step is to register his marriage at his local ampur office. He also wants to sort a yellow tabien baan and pink ID card. Kill three birds with one stone so to speak. What does he need to ask for to register his marriage? (he seems to have managed to sort whats needed for the ID and yellow book). All good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

expat_4_life Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) I'm always looking for the easiest way to get around this type of Bureaucracy. Would it have been simpler to just get married in Thailand? Edited August 11, 2020 by expat_4_life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot legally marry the same person twice. To get a affirmation of permit to marry a embassy here you have to state your were not married before or provide a divorce certificate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good answer, was just thinking outside the "box" .. erroneously it appears. In my defense it was a question, not advice !! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s funny I get discount on mine with my local ferry company . I can go to the car showroom and order a car no need to go to my local IO to pay 500 baht for a letter I could go on but I have not the time even my dentist charges me Thai rates when I present my card so I don’t know where you come up with such a remark that it’s useless I never carry my passport I just present my pink ID even when stopped by the police ???? it should also be noted that when you renew your extension of stay at the IO I give them a copy along with copy of yellow book no need to show house rental agreements or pics of where you live it’s worth it’s weight in gold ????????????????????

In some provinces it's useful,in others, totally useless. It's actually just a proof of having a yellow house book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJAS Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 11 hours ago, uncleP said: Pink I'd card is a waste of time as nobody will accept it! IMHO it is more a waste of time because it does not include 1 small, but vital, piece of information: namely the date when your current permission to stay in Thailand expires. Ditto with the much hallowed yellow book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that was a mistake. My Thai Mrs is also obsessed with getting me a yellow book. Every time we go to the Amphur they think of another reason not to issue one. I refuse to go to Bangkok (again) for another certificated copy of my passport and birth certificate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am here in Pattaya to get my birth certificate certified i just used an agent , so much easier than actually going to BKK ,as for getting the yellow book ,got it straight away ,mind you i said nothing just left everything to the wife ,as she is quite articulate i just sat there and smiled.

Also in your passport it has the Stamp non Immigrant. In Pr passport it says on the last Visa Immigrant.. i.e. No more visa renewal required, no 90 Days reports, and all the other hassle.
