Will Chaeng Wattana issue a Residence Certificate for a multiple-entry, non-immigration visa based on marriage? The sites I've found online say they will issue this certificate "if you're doing 90 day reports there"...but as this multiple-entry visa doesn't require 90 day reporting, I'm not sure what to think. Has anyone done this?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The issuance of a Residence Certificate at Chaeng Wattana requires that you have completed at least one 90-day reporting. While a multiple-entry Non-Immigrant visa based on marriage does not necessitate this reporting, it appears that to apply for the certificate you must have a history of reporting and also a TM30 receipt. Additionally, it's noted that the certificate cannot be obtained just by holding a year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant visa unless the specific reporting requirements are fulfilled.

, first off this isn't thai VISA related in the least. :/

BUT

AT Chaengwattana you can get a residence certificate on a long stay EXTENSION if you have done at least one 90 day report and have a TM30 receipt.

They do them in section B, they charge 200 baht and mail it to you in a couple weeks.

You CANNOT get a residence certificate from there if you have a year-long, multi-entry Non-Immigrant visa where you bounce out and back in every 90 days.

Requirement is doing 90 days report. If you do not make them, you can not apply for the Certificate of Residence.

not necessary to be translated for driving licence and embassy issued residency letter is accepted.

nice, but the question is about Cheang Wattana Immigration Office and not about somewhere else.

That depends for what you like to use it, you can ask this at their office.

So I must get this from my embassy then. Is an English language copy acceptable or does it need to be translated into Thai?
