For readers looking to register for a same s*x marriage when it becomes legal from January 23rd, here is the information you have been waiting for.

Same-s*x couples in Thailand can register marriage from 23 January onward

Same-s*x couples will be able to register their marriage at any district office across Thailand, and at Thai embassies overseas, from 23 January 2025, the day the Marriage Equality Act comes into effect. The law allows same-s*x partners to marry and grants them the same legal rights that heteros*xual couples have.

To celebrate Marriage Equality Day on 23 January, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has organized a mass marriage registration on that day, from 08.30 to 16.30 hr, at Paragon Hall in Siam Paragon. Couples who plan to register their marriage at Siam Paragon or in the 50 districts in Bangkok on the 23rd are encouraged to fill out an online form prior the day via the link https://shorturl.at/lotny.

Couples have to bring their ID cards or equivalent documents issued by a government agency and their household registration documents. As for foreigners, they have to show their passports and single status certificates from their home country or issued by their embassy in Thailand. Registration guidelines, in both Thai and English languages, can be found at the link https://drive.google.com/file/d/13FeJikghbRA1qud_bW1c7IkSZxYeVD3I/view.
