Immigration in Chiang Mai agreed to supply CoR (certificate of residency) yet not right away. They will send it by mail within 2-3 weeks time. WTF??. Does that sound like the expected response...? its needed for a Non Immigrant O for retirement visa. Bank will not open account without the CoR, so that makes the 800k deposited for 60 days before getting the one year extention very tight in terms of times. and maybe even impossible, concidering international money transfers take few days.

not sure I 'll make it.

any advice of how to get the CoR sooner?

Hey, my 90-day mark on my DTV visa is coming up, so I need to do my 90-day report. I heard the first one has to be in person. Can I send a visa agent to handle it for me? Also, I need a certificate of residency to convert my international driver’s license. Any recommendations for reliable agents in Bangkok? Thanks!

I need to get a certificate of residency at immigration (Bangkok). Renew DL. My situation is a bit unique. I never do the 90 days report because I always exit the country before 90 days. What documents does immigration require for the certificate of residency? I searched the group posts and saw conflicting information about the requirement of previous 90day report done.

Kalasim immigration

Non O retirement Visa.

Help below if required.

Arrived in Thailand 5 days ago, under a Non O visa.

I’m from the UK.

Public holiday in Thailand, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Immigration reopened today Monday morning. I needed a TM30, and Certificate of Residency so I could open a bank account.

I got there at 8.50am, 10 minutes before it opened as I knew it would be busy. I live with my Thai girlfriend in our (hers) house, so difficult to do the TM30 online as not a business or hotel.

She came with me, I was one of the first in the queue all sorted in 20 minutes. The cost was 500 baht. Left with the TM30 stapled to my passport and my certificate of Residency in an envelope.

Could not have been easier, and lovely people.

I then went to get a new SIM card from the AIS shop, then opened a bank account with Kasikorn Bank.

All sorted in 4 hours 😀

Documents required.

TM30 & Certificate of Residency.

Passport

E visa printed copy

Passport size photo

My girlfriend’s ID card.

My girlfriend’s house book.

Cost 500 baht.

New sim for my phone.

( I have my own phone number as an e-sim)

Passport only.

Cost, sim 100 baht, and 300 baht a month for a good data plan.

Opening a bank account ( Kasikorn Bank)

Passport

Certificate of Residency

Phone with new Sim (so they can upload the app and open the account)

Usual bank questions, home address in uk, what you salary was, new phone number, ect.

Cost was 300 baht. ( but I gave 3000 baht cash to put in)

The whole process took 4 hours.

I know I was probably lucky with my timing.

And I know all provinces are different.

And I know it depends on the person.

All that worry for nothing.

Now I wait for 60 days for my funds to season, and apply for my extension.

I hope all who are trying find it as easy as I did.
