ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
A user seeking a Certificate of Residence in Thailand on a DTV visa shared their experience at the Koh Phangan immigration office. They initially provided necessary documents but were told to submit bank statements and proof of funds. Following advice from others, they considered visiting Koh Samui, where some had more success with fewer requirements. An update indicated that they paid a fee to an agency in Koh Samui and expected the certificate to be issued shortly.
