What documents do I need to obtain a residence certificate for a Thai driver's license as a DTV holder?
Hi, I'm hoping to get a Thai driver's license. I'm a DTV holder and I live at my wife's condo in BKK. I have a Canadian DL and valid IDP. The specific question I have is regarding the residence certificate - I understand I get this from the immigration office at Chang Wattana. Can I book an on-line appointment time for this? And what specifically do I need to bring? Passport, pictures, TM16 application form, TM30 are straightforward, what I'm not sure about is "proof of residence"). A lot of out-dated and conflicted info on-line......thanks
Answer summary
To obtain a Thai driver's license as a DTV holder, you will need a residence certificate from the immigration office at Chang Wattana. It's unclear whether online appointments for this certificate are available, but requirements include bringing your passport, photographs, TM16 application form, and TM30. The specifics for "proof of residence" can vary; one user reported using a signed copy of a house book. Assistance from someone fluent in Thai is recommended for communication during your visit.

I just got my residence certificate from Khon Kaen, so you may be different. The only thing I had for an address was a copy of my SIL house book signed by her and a copy of her both sides, signed. I just showed up, no appointment. Hope this helps. Take someone who speaks thai, it's very helpful.
