Thread: Required documents for marriage( thai )

I have come to the place and time in life, where I want to do 'the right thing'. (Marry)
I know pretty much what papers I need to produce, but what would be needed on my misses to be's side ?
We are going to Bangkok, so its not in her local Amphur.

Passport ?
ID ?
Birthcertificate ?
Housebook ?
The "Singledeclaration" ?

TIA

Hope you can help

Daveboy nailed it Helge.

Good luck with your intended and I hope it all works out for you.

Be sure to let us know when the happy day is ok

Congratulations with the big decision Helge, wish you both smooth sailing and the best of luck for the future.

all the above docs, and 50,000 small brown documents that say 1000 baht on them.

I'd rather ask you lot in advance, than drive the extra 1100 km back and forth for a piece of paper

50000 ? This isn't' Rent a Wreck', my friend

Thanks to you all

Good luck, pre nup agreement is a good idea and legal I believe here. Up to you of course.

besides the above list of docs, you always need "an other"
good luck
are you getting married in Thailand or in an Embassy?

What's a family card ?

There's a thread here (Getting Married Thread - Protocol - Pitfalls - Prerequisites)that might be worth looking at from one who's been there before!

Helge, aren't you german? Then just have a look at the embassy website for the needed documents for your Ehefähigkeitszeugnis.

At the ampuer your wife just needs her ID.

Why didn't I think about getting married in the Embassy?. Hmm. That would make everything very easy for me

Nothing right or wrong about it. Just an unnecessary step which is difficult to reverse.

I went down to the local office here in Roi-et and they now want me to translate my passport and divorce papers after being told that the embassy paper is all I will need once translated.
I can not understand my pasport to Thai when the Thai passport is in English. I was going to do it until they wanted 750 to translate it f them I will go to the next town hopefully not so dumb.

told you!!

all they want is a little tea money to get things moving

Its done !
She needed to show her ID, produce copies of Tabian Baan, (housebook) and her ID. Very easy on her part
Then the rest was on me.

Thanks for your help

At the Amphur: My Passport, copies of same and the Document made out for me by the danish Embassy, and legalised by the Thais, concerning my civilstatus, income, address, parents names(my birth certificate), and childs birth certificate.

Then the wife filled in 4 A4 pages in thai with the same info, I produced 2 witnesses and 40 baht that I had to borrow from one of the witnesses. ( Just asked the wife if we paid him back, never mind, he was German)

Stamp stamp, and I was married
