Certificate of Residence

[Didhe]

6 weeks ago, I applied for a Certificate of Residence at Counter B, Building B, Division 1 Chaeng Wattana.   The certificate arrived in EMS 3 weeks later.   Recently I obtained a new passport and my visa/arrival/extension stamps were transferred to the new passport at Chanburi Square by my companies Agent.    Today I returned to Chaeng Wattana to obtain another Certificate of Residence.   The same IMO Lady sitting behind the desk.  I was ticket number 5 and called immediately at 0830 am (after waiting there since 0600 am).   The Lady IMO looked at my passport and told me to go to Chanburi Square because that was where my stamps were transferred.  My Company HR have spoken to 3 different Visa Agents today and they all said I can only do it at Chaeng Wattana.   Any ideas????????????

I have never heard of Chanburi (Chonburi?) Square, is there an immigration office there? 

Since you do know and you knew that you were registered there and this has been confirmed by the IO at CW, why do you not go there?

I think he meant the one stop center a Chamchuri Square in Bangkok for BOI companies and others that are authorized to get work permits and extensions at.

Yes Ubonjoe, apologies for spelling mistake.

OP I think you need to make direct contact with the one stop center at Chamchuri Square instead of asking visa agents. It may be a recent change they do not know about.

All the Visa Agents are saying I can’t do it at Chamchuri Square and the Govt Website says, as confirmed by U. Joe, that it’s for BOI etc.  I am just an employee!

Of a BOI or one the companies that can do it there.

If not I am not sure how you were able to get your stamps transferred there.

HR Staff here are heading that way Monday or Tuesday so hopefully I'll get an answer.

You could as well go there yourself. Samyan MRT station, Chamchuri square exit - it's not in condo or shopping mall, but on the 18th floor of the tower on the eastern side (away from intersection towards Lumpini park).
