Normal office. Nothing special about it for Residence Certificate.

Nonthaburi is a known place where it's difficult to get a certificate of residence. They have requirements like you must already be on a long-term visa and possibly that you must have already done a 90-day report. It'll be pretty much impossible to get a residence certificate from there.

Also, there is no "law" for them to know. Residence certificates are not something created by a law. They're created at the discretion of the immigration office who can set whatever policies they want regarding it.

None of this is required with a non-O visa.

Also, entering as a tourist is 20,000 baht or equivalent in another major currency, in cash only. Not 10k.

Your understanding is not correct.

This is only for Bangkok Bank. If the money you want to use for immigration has not been in your account for 4 months when you want the letter, then you must sign a document allowing them to freeze the funds for 4 months from that date.

It's nothing about them not issuing the letter, they just require you to freeze the funds for 4 months to do so. Yes this is still the policy at Bangkok Bank and a strong reason for anyone using that bank to go elsewhere.

the fact that he talked about an immigration matter related to fast track means it was not regular fast track, which is just using a different line.

He is talking about safe entry, where an agent pays immigration to guarantee you'll be admitted into Thailand even though you've been abusing tourist entries trying to live there.

That's regular fast track. This is asking about "VIP Fast Track" aka Safe Entry with an agent.

Step 1: Go to the embassy website and look what they say.
