A friend of mine went to cambodia to break the chain on his O-A visa. When he went to immigration in jomtien they wanted to see the blue book for his condo. He has the money in the bank. But they refused him. Never heard of this. What if you dont own a condo?
Answer summary
A friend faced a challenge at the Jomtien immigration office when trying to present documents while on an O-A visa. Immigration required proof of address through a blue book for condo ownership. If you do not own a condo, it is important to show official documents indicating your registered address in Thailand, as immigration regulations mandate that you must have a valid address. Prepare by checking with your local immigration office for a list of required documents before your visit.

If people like an 1 year Extension of Stay, we say so many times, visit the Immigration Office in your area and ask for the hand out with requirements.

If you show up with what you think is relevant, there is a big chance you get denied and may come back to try again with the documents listed on the hand out.

I close the commenting, as I just read i assume that I have to bring and they make it harder.

Immigration makes it more easy for those who are willing to make the visit, get the list of requirements and visit prepared to apply.

But you choice on how to play the game.

If you do not own a condo, you show the documents of the address where you are registered. Without an address you can not live inside Thailand, Immigration does not like that their guests sleep under the bridge in a carton box.

They sure seem to be making it harder for us to stay.

And the address registration? a map to his house? There are more requirements, sorry.

Like this example:

If he has a chanote, he has a blue book.

That's what they want to see

Why is he refused? As i understand now your friend went to immigration with a bank book, claiming he have other documents at home and with only a bank book you do not get an 1 year Extension of Stay. You need to meet all the requirements.
