But one has to do the 90 day report after 90 days of entering the country so that would mean you wouldn't be able to get a certificate of residence in the first 3 months? I don't see it. What you have to do though is getting your address registered with immigration and that makes sense - you need to be registered in order for them to to certify your address. That happens via TM30 and possibly TM28 (vs TM47 which is the 90 day report).

CW will insist on you having done a 90 day report at that office in order to apply for a residence certificate.

This is not the case at most other immigration offices.

 

Alternative is to obtain letter from your embassy. (if they provide that service)

That will be accepted for opening bank account and TDL.

My certs are just a small paragraph with a stamp.  No pics.  Not when I went in myself, and not thru an agent.  Just written word.

I am also under impression they only good for 30 days but unsure, especially since I can't even read it lol

So, neither Dr. Jack or Ubon Joe has an explanation for why the Immo 'Certificate of Residence' seems to have different forms and validity dates.

 

Surely, it's not a difference of Immo offices for such a standard form.

 

What gives?

I would also like this explained.

The posts of a simple form required at CW are correct.

 

At same time I read posts with screenshot of completely different form.

 

Think @ThailandRyan obtained a residence certificate recently at CW and posted a report.
