I just did my first 90day report, but realize now that because I did it 8 days before 90days, now I am supposed to do it again on April 15th, while my DTV stamp expires April 23rd.

So it seems it would have been better to do it exactly at 90 days to stay the maximum days while only 90 day reporting 1 time.

Online reporting was rejected so I went in person. I am not sure if I will be accepted in the future.

Can I get a residency certificate if I have a DTV visa? I have my DTV already and I'd like to purchase a bike, but apparently I need a residency certificate to register the bike once purchased.

Does anyone know how many days it typically takes to receive a Residency Certificate after applying at Immigration Division 1 ?

Anyone have recent experience with obtaining a residency certificate at Suratthani Immigration? Is it same day or next day? I'm on Phangan where they only give 1 at a time and I need 2 for 2 different reasons.

I'm trying to get residency certificate for buying motorbike and for motorbike license.

So when I go to the immigration in chiang mai, do I need to double my document?(example: copy of passport, house registration of the owner)

As you can only get one thing for one residency certificate

Coming to Hua Hin Jan 16 with the evisa from USA (assuming it is approved by then) Will set up bank account to move to retirement visa. Can I do a short term rental to look for a house to buy (in my Thai wife's name) while in process for the 1 year extension, or do I need to have a long term rental to get that long term visa?

Also, my mother will also be doing the same. Do both our names need to be on the rental contract?

TIA

I will be staying at a friends house for a month or so whilst I search for a perminate address. In order to open a bank account ( I have non-o visit Thai family visa) can I just present a TM30 from my friends house, no residency certificate?

I am planning on opening the bank account at Bangkok Bank headoffice in Silom rd. Bangkok.

ADVICE PLEASE: For a 90 day Non-O Visa-holder who’s now in Thailand and on the 90 day clock, there’s so many disparate puzzle pieces to accrue bf applying for “1 Year Extension of Visa.” For example: There’s setting up a Bank account & Transferring 800k Tbt, Getting local Phone service, finding a permanent address with lease and TM30…. PLEASE SHARE from your experience what is the most logical order to tackle the tasks above, AND don’t hesitate to list the many I haven’t even thought of in this moment. Thank god this FB Group exists. It is a gift to newcomers!

I arrived in Thailand on NON O 90 day retirement visa yesterday. Today i went to AIS for phone and wifi service. They told me they don’t offer long term package including locally priced phone plans and wifi, Non O doesn’t qualify. I also need something else — like a Thailand Drivers Licence. Not even planning on getting a vehicle. Is there an easier way? I hv passport + Non O and will have lease shortly. How else can I do this?

Agent that can open a bank account for me? I have the DTV visa and I live in Koh Phangan. 🙏
