TLDR : Answer Summary

To obtain a certificate of residence for registering a motorbike in Thailand, you typically need to provide a copy of your passport, a copy of your latest entry stamp, a copy of your visa (if applicable), a TM30 form indicating your residence, and two passport-sized photos. The exact requirements may vary by immigration office, with some offices charging a fee ranging from 200 to 600 baht.

Depends on the office you use but generally it will be a copy of your passport. A copy of your latest entry stamp and a copy of your visa (if you had one), a photo and a printed TM30 filing that shows you are staying in the province you’re applying at.

Again depending on the office you may be charged something like 200-500 baht.
