Have not visited immigration office yet ( not even sure where nearest one is !! ) as I've left the country a couple of times but would like to get a Thai car license ( using IDP now) and therefore will need a certificate of residency.

Am in a rented apartment , so will 6 months of bills from apartment be enough ?, I am assuming no because my name is not mentioned on said bills.

So my question is: 

Do I get a letter from apartment stating I have lived there for 6 months ?

Or do I get them to fill in a form ( tm 30 I think) which seems overly complicated ?

A friend of mine got a confirmation from the condo-building he is living. That was enough.

 

I showed them my 3bb internet bill. Was fine as well.

For starters, this is the location of your local Immigration office;

138 Mu 9
Tambon Bang Toei
Amphoe Sam Khok
Pathum Thani 12160
Phone: 02- 5931991

 

A copy of your landlords Tabien Baan, ID card and rental agreement is sufficient proof of address to obtain a Certificate of Residence.

 

Certificates of Residence can be obtained from;

Immigration.

Your Embassy.

Local Amphur office

Local Police station.

 

The day after I arrived in Thailand, I took the above documents to my local Police station, just because it was more convenient than the other options and obtained two C of R's. The first I used to purchase a motorcycle.

I took the second along with my UK driving licences, copies of Passport home page, entry stamp, Visa andTM6 card to my local DLT centre and after a few compulsory small tests walked away with two Thai licences for Car and Motorcycle.

Very slim chance of them doing it.

You never know if you don't try.

 

Many expats obtained their C of R from both the local Amphur and Police station, which are both within 500mtrs of our Immigration office.

Thanks for the quick replies, once again.
