Registration of Family Status (Khor.Ror.22)


Thai citizens, either married or divorced in Belgium and Luxembourg, and wish to register their marriage/divorce in Thailand can register changes in marital status to be “married”, “divorced” or “widow/widower” in the Thai civil registration by the following steps:


1. Prepare original copy of certificate of marriage/certificate of divorce (Belgian/ Luxembourgish)
      Note: When requesting documents from Belgian/Luxembourgish authorities, 
please inform the officer that your documents must be legalised at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs by sticker paper system only. The Embassy does not accept digital legalisation 
due to its lack of name of the authorised signer on it.

2. Translate the certificate of marriage/certificate of divorce into Thai by using a sworn translator
      Attention: The translated text and the original copy of the document must be stapled together with a rubber-stamp of the sworn translator placed on the top left corner of the document.


3. Legalise both the original and the translation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belgium and Luxembourg by sticker paper system only. Both certified documents must be stapled and top left corner folded together.


4. Legalise both the original and the translation at the Royal Thai Embassy in Brussels.
