Government mayhem? Maybe, then again if it ain't broken why change it!
To a farang, an Amphoe (or Amphur depending on how you like to spell it) is an undermanned government office set up to service the needs of the citizen and account for the population that live in it's particular district.
They do just about everything, a 'jack of all trades' generally speaking.
- Birth, deaths and marriages
- Divorce
- Change of name
- New or renewed ID cards (now monks are no longer excluded)
- Motor vehicle licenses
- Land title certificates
The list goes on, however a Thai national can not apply for a passport.
You should expect to 'take a number' and wait if you have to do anything in one, but hey, what's new, your in Thailand!
