Yellow-book registration and the pink ID card — what usually gets a file sent back?

The scope of this answer is “Yellow-book registration and the pink ID card”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. Note who signed each certification and on what date for later reference. Record the reference number of each certification layer; it is the fastest way to trace status. After certification, scan the full set before it leaves your hands. Before starting, count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps, then confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation, then check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. Public holidays and embassy closures move certification queues more than most people expect. The terms that frame this page are Yellow-book · registration · pink · card. What sets this case apart is the number of certified sets and the window in which they must be used. The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. The Civil Registration Act B.E. 2534 allows a lawfully resident foreigner to be entered in the yellow house registration book for non-Thai nationals (Thor.Ror.13) at the district office, and once registered to apply for the pink non-Thai national identification card. Foreign documents used in support must be translated into Thai and certified as the registrar requires. Given name, family name, date of birth and passport number in the translation must match the passport and be consistent across every document in the set. Where a name was changed or spelled differently on older papers, attach the change-of-name evidence. A single-character mismatch is the most common reason a receiving authority sends a file back. Forms, attachment lists and lodgement channels change from time to time. This page explains the legal framework and the document steps in general terms; before you act, re-confirm the current form, the supporting documents and the deadline with the receiving authority itself. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how many certified sets are required and the steps the receiving authority sets, so every file is quoted before work starts.
