How can I obtain a resident certificate in Thailand on a 30-day visa exempt status to buy a motorbike?
Just went all the way to division 1,BKK for resident certificate. They say they can only do it for 1 year visa. Im only on 30day visa exempt but want to buy a motorbike. UK embassy wont give me a res cert either. Where can I go to get one?
Answer summary
The user visited the Bangkok division for a resident certificate but was informed it was only available for 1-year visa holders. They are currently on a 30-day visa exempt status and are interested in buying a motorbike. Suggestions from comments include consulting a visa agent, considering renting a motorbike instead, and trying to obtain the certificate in other locations such as Pattaya or Phuket, where the process may be easier. A TM30 report is also mentioned as potentially necessary for registration.

Technically correct because only 30 day visa.
Talk to an agent, they may find a solution.

Why don't you just rent one since you're here for a short time?

Bangkok will only issue you with a certificate if you've done a 90-day report
