I would assume the exact opposite to a "death certificate. I must admit I receive three pensions every month from different suppliers , including the govt and I have never been asked to prove I am, still alive by any of them and I am knocking on eighty.
As they say TB, your bl**dy lucky mate
I've had to get one filled out, witnessed and returned every year I've been here as it "safeguards the interests of the pensioners in the scheme"
At least I've now got them used to accepting a scaned copy sent by e-mail (it had to be returned by post years ago and got lost twice)
It has to be witnessed by:=
A clerk at the town hall (for residents of France)
Minister of Religion (don't think shaving head and sitting in a wat for a few weeks years coz mummy said it will get the family a few merits counts)
Police Officer (yeah right, in Thailand?)
A Bank Official (Bangkok Bank refuse to have anything to do with it as it's not banking business)
Your Doctor (Dont have personal doctors in Thailand)
A Notary Public
A Commissioner of Oaths
A Justice of the Peace
A Solicitor or Lawyer
An official from your National Embassy or the British Embassy
