Curious if I buy a 3.8g gold ring how much above spot price should I expect? If I want to sell it later what kind of fee can I expect? Also wondering the same about chains, maybe in the 2-4baht range.

I want the AIS 1gbps post paid sim but work permit is required. Anyone have luck getting one of these? On DTV

theres lots on facebook marketplace under 10k that say they have the book/papers. Blue? Or green? Not really sure long as the brakes and lights work, not completely clapped out, should be ok? I used to do inspections back home, just on transport trucks not bikes. Anything minor I think the shop can fix quickly during inspect. Kind of looking for helpful answers here but thanks..

Anyone familiar with inspection, transferring ownership, insurance etc? Going to get a cheap bike soon in the 6-10k range, maybe off fb marketplace, and want a smooth quick process. My understanding is, I pay cash, get a power of attorney letter, copy of ID, blue book and keys from seller, take the bike for inspection, then bring bike to (chatuchak) DLT, with my CoR, copy of visa + passport? then I buy insurance after? How long until I have plates etc? Should I/can I use a title transfer service? My CoR expires on monday.. today its friday morning. If I buy a bike today or this weekend, can I bring everything in on monday and have everything done same day? Can I drive bike around while waiting? Anything I should look out for as far as scams/fake paperwork? in Canada, we just need seller signature and the registration paper. Go to insurance office any day of week and it takes 20 min. Not like thailand

Yea I was. He said the first CoR I gave him is only for motorbike, cannot do car license. They’ve probably updated the CoR since you last seen it, now it has the purpose specified

I went there today, this is not true. The CoR specifies if its for car, bike, bank etc. I handed him one for a bike and he said I cannot have car license unless I have a 2nd CoR for that. luckily I had both

This was my experience too. No questions, just stamp and smile

I managed to get an account on a dtv today. Tried Krungsri, they kindly refused. Then tried Bangkok Bank and they let me in. What I brought: - passport + copies - drivers license from home country - copy of dtv - copy of muay thai gym acceptance letter - certificate of residence

Wasn’t sure about this, thanks I will get a bike license then probably convert my Canadian car license later on. So two seemed best A hotel. The 0 night trick would have been nice to know. I had about 30 min to come back with a proper tm30 so I just booked a few more nights. Oh well.

an update to my own question and some info for others: Here is the updated CoR application as of today. They added a box so you can ask for as many CoR pages as you need. The requirements are also stapled to the front. Like Tod said, all thats required is: - copy of passport photo/data page - copy of passport stamp - copy of tm30 (MUST BE 10+ DAYS) they said my 1 night tm30 wasn’t enough, I had to come back with a 10+ day tm30. also, its 200b per CoR you want. I got 4, two for motorbike + car license, one for motorbike ownership and one for bank account. So 800b. another thing, I’m on a DTV so I brought a copy of dtv visa and they took that, but not sure if its required.

Was there an option to ask for multiple CoR pages? It looks like you get 1 for a license and 1 for registering a vehicle, but what if I want 3 or 4 to open bank, register bike, get bike DL, etc

Is it legitimate? wondering what are the chances they just have a card printer and make a fake license instead lol I haven’t done 90 day report yet so can’t get the license myself

I have a feeling in 5 years this visa will be discontinued

I wonder if I could use an agent to get the CoR sooner than 90 days? I want to get a scooter + licence and thai bank account. But don’t want to wait 90 days, then another several weeks for CoR, etc

Interesting. I had never even considered that I may need to do 90-day reporting until I read your comment earlier. There was nothing during my visa process/research to indicate that. But I see now that DTV holders will likely have to report. You’d think there would be mention of this somewhere, if its required… The average person who is not well versed on thai visa policy, who enters on a DTV, will probably not even be aware they need to report

90-day reporting is not required on the dtv regardless of length of stay, as far as I understand

Has anyone been able to get a Certificate of residence under the DTV? looks like in Bangkok I cant get it at immigration because I donty do 90 day reporting. wonder if my countries embassy here in bkk could do it.. some say get at police station or use visa agent

I thought I had read somewhere that you shouldn’t apply more than 3 months before your intended travel date. But I cannot quote it.

No need to be sour about it. It's really not extreme. Do you need to know which officer stamped me in? and the exact day I entered? You might be surprised what kind of havoc someone can wreak upon your life just using what you've posted online. Maybe you should post your visa stamp. The embassy in Vancouver Canada issued my visa. It only took about 2 days. They said I needed minimum 6 weeks of Muay Thai, but the Ottawa embassy said 3 months so I applied with 3 months to be safe. My letter of confirmation said nothing about the amount of hours or classes I'd be doing. If you want to know more, just ask.

Probably unnecessary but I’m just careful about putting my info online. It’s possible someone could use those numbers to reveal my identity, mess with my visa status, etc

A pic of my DTV stamp

Yea I guess I should use both. Just wondering what they're expecting for "Letter of confirmation" Want to get it right the first time

Anyone know what the "letter of confirmation to attend activity" should look like? I'm headed to a Muay Thai gym but want to help the gym owner out with making the letter.. I looked around online for examples from the ED Muay Thai visa but cant find anything really I guess just a signed letter saying "Mr. x has enrolled in 3 months of Muay Thai training at x gym" ? Or just a receipt?
