Usually this is on Immigration data base assuming owner did register you, but that data base is all screwed up these last 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax2 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Its been a long time (years) since i needed a C of R and the only change i can see in the requirements for one is proof of address, The slip in my passport already confirming my address is not enough proof it seems Its like everything else immigration does to make it harder, use to take 1 hour to extend your visa, now it takes 2 days, photo in front of house, what that is supposed to prove i do not have a clue Probably want you to supply a stool sample by next year, when farangs complain about tea money fees on forums and in newspapers they do not like it and make everything harder to do for everyone as a result of these complaints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jphasia Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I was yesterday at the immigration office in Phuket town to get a CoR (for the purpose of getting International Driving Licence).I am on Non O 1 year multi entry (based on child).I registered my address about 3 years ago and got the notification of alien slip attached in my passport since.When I did register, I asked them if need to register again when i will need a CoR again. They said no, as long as you are staying at the same address no need.I am travelling a lot, got 1 year Non O multi entry every years and also get a new passport every year (as full)For the last 3 years, I requested several CoR and got them without any issues. As soon as they see the notification of alien slip no issues. The last time before yesterday I requested CoR was last January when I renewed my 5 years DL and no issues again.But yesterday, the immigration officer had a look at my passport (nearly full...) and told me: " your last entry was on 10 April but your address registration has not been updated..."I explained him my case, living in Phuket at the same address for the last 15 years (my son is the real owner of the house) and working in neighbor country...in and out almost every weekend...His answer was: I understand you but this is the law. Everytime you go out of the country, you must register your address again when you come back...Today i will register for you without your owner presence but you have to pay 600 bahts :)10 minutes later, i got my passport back with a new notification of alien and CoR.Sent from my SM-N920C using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timkeen08 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Are you guys talking about my Yellow Address Book? I have a 1 year Type O Marriage VISA with multiple entry. My Thai wife owns the house. I will be going back next month for my 1st extension at Nong Khai. I assume you are talking about a Certificate and not an Address Book.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psimbo Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 12 hours ago, LivinginKata said: 600 baht for a free service .... I actually wish they would officially charge for this and put it above board. It takes the money out of their grubby little hands. Pointless Immigration bleating out that it is free when challenged by the press- we all know its bullocks and is why there are 'no camera' signs prominently displayed in the office. You pay for a bank letter, bank statement, embassy papers, notarised papers, etc so why not for this. No Service is free and I would suggest the 4 things I have just mentioned are charged for in most countries. In this case JPHasia was scammed (basically for telling the truth!) He would have been charged B300, not B600 AND got a receipt if it were legitimised. We both know that so long as we return to our registered address there is no reason to go through the performance again. 1 hour ago, DILLIGAD said: I got a cert of residence today from Sisaket IO and...........

Basically it is a certificate of where I am living. Any information on when the C of R would be required instead of a yellow house book would be welcomed.

madmax2 Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 As long as your notification slip in your passport is up to date only copies of passport pages, arrival card and notification slip are required, no other papers or documents, same as before for a C of R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know mate, but i found out today when i dropped my C or R off to pearl Toyota that a copy of your passport is not good enough any more for licensing a vehicle in a foreigners name The transport authority wants to see your actual passport to make sure its not fake Would anyone be stupid enough to buy and register a vehicle with a fake passport What are they going to think of next to muck people around 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
