I am about to apply for my Thai driving license, my question is do I need a certificate of residence from immigration as it says in the transport office or will my blue book and condo deeds be ok. There was no one available to ask. Thank in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a Thai driving license, you will need a certificate of residence from immigration. Although some have been able to use alternative documents like a blue book or condo deeds, most responses indicate that an official certificate is required, especially since rules can change frequently. Additional documents such as a medical certificate and passport will also be necessary.
You might have a blue book but it won't have your name in it. Only Thais go in a blue book. Regardless you will need a residence certificate from immigration and apply medical certificate from a surgery, along with your passport

Yellow house book for foreigner and then you can get Thai foreigner ID card as well . You can use them both for driving licence.
DLT's own regulations on their website show it is required, and I can confirm it was needed when I renewed my license this week. Either residence certificate or work permit book are accepted.
