Jenson75 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I need a residency certificate and I don't want to wait 2 weeks for it. Is there a Visa Agency/agent close by the offices of Chiang Mai Immigration? I have heard that the fee is 1,000 baht - and then I can get the res-cert the next day. Is there an agency across the road from Immigration, or is that just a photocopy-shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenson75 Posted January 11, 2019 Author Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Found it myself. Tian Visa Services is located at the spa directly across the road from Immigration. Edited January 11, 2019 by Jenson75 spelling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) I have already posted the information in the Immigration Q&A thread. It is one month's wait and NOT two weeks. Yes, Tian service across the street is still alive and kicking. Edited January 11, 2019 by EricTh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stament Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Don't need an agent very easy. 2nd floor of Immigration building. Heard 1000baht is the cost to get it quickly though not sure who you lay this to, I assumed the govt not an agent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Government don't have this 1000 baht 'rush service' or else it would have been spelled out somewhere on the application form or a signboard there. I was never offered this 'extra service' by the officers there when I mentioned one month is too long. All these are paid through an agent going through the back door and is a form of corruption.

I saw the list of services a few days ago stating 'residence cert'. They were last seen at Promenada too. It seems that they are related to some immigration officers.

For those interested I believe the one across the road is the most expensive-location,contacts etc. ???? But keeps the wheels greased! ????

Have you applied for the residence cert at the new office? All other visa services seem to have improved except for residence cert application. Most people have to make 3 trips. 1. Get a queue number which is most probably finished by the time you reach there. 8 am to 10 am. 2. Submit application form next day if you wake up early enough 3. Wait one month to collect residence cert. Of course if you pay Tian agency, you only need to make two trips and can collect the next day.
