Can a DTV holder obtain a Thai driver's license and why can't they open a bank account?

If the landlord registered you electronically, you should get a receipt or screenshot of the registration. You could do it yourself at the immigration if you bring your lease contract and a copy of the landlords housebook and ID-card. It’s the landlords responsibility but your problem if it’s not done.

Yes it should be enough if you also have a receipt of your TM.30 address registration at your immigration. The owner of house should register you on a TM.30 within 24 hours of your arrival.

If you don’t have any recent excessive travel history on visa exemptions, you should be fine with a re-entry and still be considered as a genuine tourist to Thailand.

Do you need to redo a tourist visa if you leave Thailand for 4 days?

Jan ******************

You can only get a re-entry permit on a 60 days tourist e-visa you applied for online before you went to Thailand.

If you’re on a 60 days visa exemption you’ll get a new one at the discretion of the immigration officer your standing in front of.
