Frequently asked questions
- Can you obtain Thai civil documents for me while I am abroad?
- Yes — Thai district offices issue certified extracts to an authorized representative holding a power of attorney, a certified copy of your passport or ID, and the prescribed request form. Powers of attorney signed overseas should be notarized and legalized by the Thai embassy in that country so the district office accepts them without a second visit.
- Which Thai documents are most commonly retrieved for overseas use?
- The frequent set is the house registration extract, ID card record, birth and death certificates, marriage and divorce certificates with their Kor Ror 2 and Kor Ror 6 extracts, single-status certificates, name-change records and company affidavits. Certified extracts issued directly by the responsible office are required because plain photocopies cannot be legalized.
- Are old records from before computerization still obtainable?
- Usually yes, but they take longer. Records predating the national civil-registration digitization are held in bound registers at the district office of registration, so retrieval requires knowing the district and approximate date, and the office may need several days to locate and certify the entry. Where a register was destroyed, an alternative certificate of facts can be issued.
- What stamp duty applies to a Thai power of attorney?
- Thai stamp duty on a power of attorney is THB 10 for authorizing one person to act in a single matter and THB 30 where several matters or several attorneys are involved, affixed and cancelled before use. Missing or uncancelled stamps are a common reason a district office refuses a proxy request.
