Andycoops Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I have been told that to register for a Thai pink ID card, I need to provide a copy of my birth certificate. Is it possible to get one as a expat in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoldgit Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 3 hours ago, Andycoops said: But will it be sent overseas, it doesn't say so. Yes it does, when you start the order process under service options it says "Post - 1st Class (Priority) and 2nd Class (Standard) for UK address, Airmail outside UK". If the application is urgent, you can opt to pay for a priority applications which are sent by DHL for overseas customers - Priority applications sent to Addresses outside the UK Only (+£12 per batch of up to 5 Certificates) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I was told that Thailand Post is not accepting mail from overseas. Can anyone confirm this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 IMPORTANT - Check if your local ampur require the birthcert to be certified / legalised and translated or just translated. Also they will require the version which shows your parent's names. You probably won't have this much hassle, but it's worth reading the saga, the links are in the first post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJAS Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) 8 hours ago, Andycoops said: But will it be sent overseas, it doesn't say so. I ordered a duplicate birth certificate 6 years ago after the original had gone astray (thankfully only temporarily in the event) with my State Pension claim. I can confirm that the GRO sent it to me in Thailand. EDIT: I see @theoldgit has beaten me to it! Edited May 4, 2021 by OJAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
