Lägg gärna in mer info om hur man skaffar husboken då jag själv funderar på det nästa gång
Ett extrakt av hur det funkar (jag nämde felaktigt land office, det ska vara muncipality som get ut blå/gul husbok):
As foreigners are not usually registered in a Thai house book they can use a letter of residence provided by the local immigration office, if they have a non immigrant visa, as proof of address. If he is the owner of a condominium he can use the title deed, the empty blue book and his passport. When a foreigner owns a house the blue book is normally left empty unless Thai nationals also reside at his permanent address.
A house book can be issued for a house, condominium apartment (whether registered under the Condominium Act or not). The official house book for Thais is the blue book and for foreigners residents a yellow book. A blue book is standard issued but in case of a foreigner it can be exchanged for a yellow book if the foreigner meets specific criteria. The documents required for the exchange of a blue book of a completed house or condominium for a yellow book could, besides the application form, could include: a non-immigrant visa, a work permit, a marriage certificate, apartment unit title deed, documents relating to the land and right to use and possess the land, the official land office sale of a structure document and a building permit.
The blue or yellow tabien baan is not an important document for foreigners and most foreigners owning a condominium or a house (separate from the land) will have a (empty) blue house registration book and not a yellow book. The legal value for foreigners is very limited and generally there is no need or requirement to exchange a blue tabien baan for a yellow tabien baan. A yellow book does not confer any additional rights. However, foreigners married to a Thai national living in Thailand should have their name in the house book of the marital home. For Thais a house book’s primary function is that it states his or her place of legal residence (permanent home).
