Just moved here to Thailand, Does anyone know how to get a residence certificate with DTV?

I need it for my driving lesson application here in BKK.

Thanks !
Answer summary
To obtain a residence certificate in Thailand for driving lessons, you generally need to apply at your local immigration office. Key requirements include having your passport, copies of your visa and TM30 report (which shows your address registration), and sometimes a filled application form. Fees may vary, with some offices charging around 300 to 500 baht. It’s advisable to check if a 90-day report is needed for your specific location, as this may vary within different offices in Thailand.

No need for 90 day report at Chaeng Watthana, I applied for a residence certificate without 90 day report last month on 4th day of visit to Thailand.

No photos needed.

I supplied

Printout of TM30 - property owner needs to have submitted blue book pages about property and owner to TM30 property registration website/paper TM30 submission at Chaeng Watthana.

Copies of passport bio page, visa and entry stamp.

I didn't show a lease agreement or yellow tabien baan.

Certificate arrived in the post 1 week later.

I think Bangkok needs you to have submitted a 90 day report before they will issue you with one.

If you live in Bangkok, you will need to apply for your Residence Certificate at the main Immigration. If you are based outside of Bangkok you should be able to get it from your local immigration office.

You will need

Passport

2 x passport-sized photos

Copy of your lease agreement/house registration book (yellow Tabien baan)

Copy of receipt of address notification (90) day report
