Do you have to be in Thailand atleast 90 before you can apply for a certificate of residency? Thanks
Answer summary
The requirement for applying for a certificate of residency in Thailand varies by location. In cities like Bangkok, you must complete a 90-day report, thus necessitating a long-term visa. Conversely, locations such as Phuket and Pattaya may not have this restriction. Additionally, different offices may impose distinct policies; for instance, some may only require a TM30 form instead of a 90-day report.

It depends on the office you are using. Each office has their own policies. For example in Bangkok you can only get a residence certificate (from immigration) if you have already filed a 90 day report. But you can get a residence from your embassy at any time usually.

Some offices like Chiang Mai only require you have a TM30 to get a residence certificate.

Depends where you are. In Bangkok you need to have done a 90 day report - which means you need a long term visa to do so.

Elsewhere like Phuket and Pattaya there is no such restriction.
