Popular Post retarius Posted January 20 Popular Post Share Posted January 20 I don't think you can get one on a tourist visa. I think they are for residents as the name of the certificate implies. I've had several, you need one to buy a car or motorbike. Like many things about immigration, CoR's, at least at my immigration office, they have become much more difficult. It used to be a 30 minute process. Now, at my office there are reams of photocopies needed, photos, documentation about where you are residing, and it takes a minimum of 3 business days. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but should I try to get it on a tourist visa? Want to buy a car badly, but, probably, I have to wait until I get my retirement visa first. Or have I ?

bbko Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The local immigration will want to proof of your residence, most prefer a monthly bill with your address, like electric, internet, bank, water. Staying in a hotel on a tourist visa is more likely to get rejected. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CW would require a TM47 to have been filed and on tourist visa or visa exempt that would not be possible. In some provinces a TM30 with lease might be sufficient. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought many vehicles over the years on a tourist visa. CofR just need address, I used the house blue book The certificate is only as good as your visa, it will expire with visa.

Where did I say 'any blue book'. It was the house blue book, the house that I bought and I live. I've got many house and condo blue books, for my CofR I use the blue book where I live. What's your problem? Edited January 20 by SAFETY FIRST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your house blue book (without your name) can be used for your CofR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I noticed by your replies that you have been a little confused but try not to over think it. It is accepted, they just require a physical address, the address is printed in your blue book.

TM30, does that ring any bells, hello people, it's not that difficult. Yes I understand that, but if the farang's name is not in the blue book, how can the IO determine the farang lives there? What's to prevent the farang from giving ANY blue book? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make it sound like foreigners have blue books coming out of their you know what. A blue house book is not a common item for Thais, most of the Thai people working in Pattaya won't have one.

ignis Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Went to immigration for a Certificate in 2004, what a performance, + took 3 weeks for in to arrive, never been back for a Certificate since at immigration ... Use the local Town Hall, need - Passport, Blue Book, letter from owner + copy of there i.d + the head man of the local Village, done in a few mins FREE.. Ok past few years is easy as I am on there Computer so they just look up last entry put on a new date, print the local headman signs and they take it to the Junta for the big red seal.
