It should be free and issued on application. However some IO's are known to charge for same day service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExpatDraco Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 And many foreigners are stupid enough to pay it!In Jomtien you pay 300THB/certificate or you can go back where you came from without your certificate. At least the certificate is ready after 15-30 minutes wait time. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 This is against the law. I'd report them.Yes report them....then you'll have to wait 3 weeks for the bit of paper like in BKK or they will just stop issuing the bit of paper ! which I read happened somewhere "up north" maybe Chaingmai. 300 baht you get it in 30 mins or 0 baht and come back in 3 weeks, I know which option I'll choose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExpatDraco Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 This is against the law.

I would recommend you to refuse to pay and see what happen to you since the treatment i patong can vary but i doubt very much you will leave patong immigration same day like me in 15-20 min with your CoR.

Why do you need one, are you a long term tourist? Since i am not working and not having a yellow book you need CoR for example: Open bank account at some banks in TH and can even be helpful abroad. Get a driving licence in TH Buy car/motorbike your name in TH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
