thaitim Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 hi guys what do i need to take to the embassy for proof of address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streetlite Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Go to immigration with your house/condo/apt. lease and a utility or Internet bill with your name on it. They prefer the bill. They will issue you a letter the following day confirming your address. It's good for 30 days (they took mine after 60 so I got lucky). Take that letter along with a medical certificate, copies of passport pages, international or foreign license (if you want to avoid written and driving tests). Fill out the application (it has English between the lines). They will give you a number (at least in Pattaya), go upstairs and wait (bring a good book).

hellracer Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 if you mean by Proof of address for Thai driver license, you dont need to go embassy. just goto Thai immigration office and pay 500Baht then you are all set, make sure to bring 2 Photo copy with you. they will keep one and give you one back attach to the paper they will give you. that piece of paper is proof of address and just bring it to DMV.

Depends on where you live in Thailand. Some give it for free, some take 200 baht. And then there is Samui that always is most expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mijan24 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 (edited) if you mean by Proof of address for Thai driver license, you dont need to go embassy.just goto Thai immigration office and pay 500Baht then you are all set, make sure to bring 2 Photo copy with you. they will keep one and give you one back attach to the paper they will give you. that piece of paper is proof of address and just bring it to DMV. Problem is with your initial question. Do you want obtain proof of where you live so you can obtain a drivers licence? If you are on Married O only then its off to embassy. If you are on married O extention then irs off to immigration Edited December 18, 2009 by mijan24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soutpeel Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 And of course if you have a work permit, you dont need to d*ck around with any proof of address, just turn up with your WP (and copy of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are on married O extention then irs off to immigration Thats exactly what happened mijan24. I went to immigration only to be told, you have non o multi, not yearly extension you have to go to your embassy. She explained that the reason for this is if you are on extension then you have to report every 90 days so they have your address on record & can confirm proof of address.

Lotusbluete Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hallo Phuket Richard, sorry your information about Phuket is wrong. I think since quite a while it is no more "upstairs" by the lady. You do it downstairs, first row, same place where you do your normal visas. And you don't need photos anymore if you have already "Receipt of Notification". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
