Someone in Bangkok dealing with residence and 90-day notifications — which documents start the file?

The point raised here is “Someone in Bangkok dealing with residence and 90-day notifications”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. Before starting, count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps, then verify the source document is still within any validity window the recipient applies, then check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page. Check first whether the issuing office of the source document is one the destination recognises. The most frequent cause of delay in this group is missing supporting documents on the first submission. The terms that frame this page are Someone · Bangkok · dealing · residence. The specifics here are location: Bangkok, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. Once the set is complete, check it line by line against the destination's own checklist before filing. If the receiving body confirmed its requirements by email, keep that message with the file. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Public holidays and embassy closures move certification queues more than most people expect. Leave buffer time in case a translation has to be amended or a source document re-issued. A foreigner permitted to stay temporarily beyond ninety days must notify their address to the competent officer every ninety days under section 37(5) of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522, and the house master or owner accommodating a foreigner has a separate duty to notify under section 38, filed in practice on form TM.30. Both are handled by the Immigration Bureau, Royal Thai Police. A Thai document used overseas normally follows one order: obtain the original or an official copy from the issuing office, have it translated faithfully, submit it for legalisation to the Legalisation Division of the Department of Consular Affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, then have the destination country's embassy or consulate legalise it where that country requires it. Thailand is not a party to the 1961 Apostille Convention, so no Apostille is issued for Thai documents. 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.
