I currently hold a Non-O retirement visa that was obtained from an agent. My question is, how do I get a residency certificate so that I can obtain a drivers license or open up another bank account, or other things, on my own without going back to my agent?
Answer summary
To obtain a residency certificate in Thailand with a Non-O retirement visa, you need to visit your local immigration office. If your visa stamp is from your registered province, you may be able to get the certificate without an agent. Make sure to bring the required documents, including the TM30 form, photocopies, and at least two passport photos. However, be aware that requirements may vary slightly by location.

Shouldn't you be asking your agent? They can con you out of another 5000 to sort it for you 😂😂😂

If your stamp is from a province you don't live in, you probably cannot get a residence certificate without an agent.

If the stamp is from your own province then it might be possible. You won't know until you go to immigration and ask.
