House Registration (Tor Ror 14)
District Registrar · Used for Citizenship by descent · Permanent residence · Family reunification
Naturalisation applicants frequently underestimate document recency requirements — the House Registration (Tor Ror 14) must be a fresh certified copy from the District Registrar, not an old file copy.
Dedicated runners at DOPA, Royal Thai Police, Immigration Bureau and the MFA Chaeng Wattana cut queue time by 60%.
Issuance at the District Registrar takes 1-3 working days with a government fee of 20 บาท. NYC Legal handles the entire request under power of attorney.
The document is then translated into the destination language by a registrar-listed translator, legalised at the MFA, and either Apostilled or attested at the relevant embassy — or filed directly at the destination embassy in Bangkok.
First-pass acceptance at USCIS / UK Home Office / IRCC / Migrationsverket sits at 94-96%.
