Phil Clark Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 I have been told and am hoping that with a "Statement of Residency" from the US Embassy that I can avoid having to have all of the "Stuff" from my landlord, such as copies of their house papers, ID cards, ect...I do have both a valid US DL and an International one... Plus 1year "OA" retirement visa... Anyone care to comment??? Pianoman <{POST_SNAPBACK}> As long as it has you Thai address you will be fine. However Limbo does have a point about the fees. The immigration letter is free. How many arms and legs does the US embassy charge?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> At Pattaya Immigration Office, the charge for each certificate of residence is 200 Baht.

I have copies of all my landlady's documents which she has signed. I also keep several photocopies of these signed documents for such purposes as driving licences. I show the original copies to the authorities and give them a copy of the original. They have never wanted to keep the original signed document.

JimmyGreaves Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Any one used a letter from immigration in Bangkok as proof of residence for a 1 year licence? The instructions at the driving Licence office near Mo Chit states: Original Present Residence address in Thailand certify from embassy or work permit.

Firefan Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I had both the certificat from embassy (which they kindly made in Thai language without extra charge) and the yellow book(tabien Bahn-house owner book) with my name in it - and when at DL office (I used head office near weekend market despite covered under other office with no problem) they told me that I in the future do only need the yellow book.
