Popular Post jackdd Posted October 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2020 No, that's for permanent residents. You just go to your immigration office and tell them what you want. Take the usual copies, your rental contract and passport sized photos with you, then you should be good to go at most offices. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJack54 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Just now, Xaos said: Jomtien No worries. I only asked because Bangkok imm requires a 90 day report. Pretty sure that's not the case Jomtien. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time I got a Resident Certificate from Jomtien Immigration there was only 2 options: Drivers licence or Other. You just wrote why you needed the RC next to Other.

Jomtien have always (well for a very long time anyhow) charged you for it. When I went 2 months ago it was still 300 baht but someone I spoke to the other day said it cost him 500 the other week - just for the one. Anybody else been in the last 2 weeks or so? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on which immigration office you attend, from personal experience i know in Udon Thani and Chiang Mai such a request form is not required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one awhile back after they were made free. The IO said 500 baht please. I said I though free now.

Russell17au Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 When I did my license I had to go to the LTO and get a letter requesting the COR to present to immigration and the COR was going to take 2 weeks for free or express 10 minutes for 200 baht. I paid the 200 and went directly back and got my license. There was no form for me to fill in at immigration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't a COR's are for free law. But anyway, I don't really give a s**t. I just pay 300THB and get the COR in 1 hour @ Jomtien when I need one.

Too many people wising up to the fact that a single COR was sufficient for 2 licences, despite them telling you otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At several immigration offices the RC is free if you can wait up to maybe 2 weeks, and it cost 200-300 baht (maybe even more) if you want it straight away. At other offices you always get it straight away, it takes maybe 30 min, and I think that's why there's a cost. So, what do you prefer, come back after 2 weeks when you need the RC tomorrow, or pay 200-300 baht and get it straight away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
