I managed to do my first 90-day non-O retirement visa at Jomtien, in the back office. I had an overkill of paperwork and I tried to explain in thai what I had and the (dragon) lady just rifled through it all and said very abruptly, this is what I want, copied three times and signed, and it will be accepted.
Address requirements were minimum 3 month [duplicate] rental contract, ID card of owner, tabien baan of both the apartment and also the address on the ID card. It appeared like it was intended to be as difficult as possible.
Now my main question: I am now living in BKK on a 6 month contract and while I would love to move back to somewhere near the sea, I wish to get my 2nd annual visa extension sorted out first, if possible, before moving.
The requirements of the ID card of the owner and the tabien baan of both the apartment and ID card address, do limit my choices of accommodation.
Would be eternally grateful, if anyone knows whether JW requires similar proof of address documentation, or it's just up to the IO on duty that day?
My second question, which I really would like to start a whole new topic on, is which jangwats enforce this proof of address and which do not?
