What are the current procedures and costs for obtaining a Certificate of Residence in Chiang Mai, Thailand?

Richard *****

Good idea but that’ll reduce the workload and maybe the number of people employed! Plus, the taxi/tuk tuk drivers lose their share to get to Prom and Prom loses the coffee customers then Promenada closes and all the workers there lose their jobs and can’t buy food from the markets...and all because stamping at the airport is a good idea! 😁

Richard *****

CM allows the tenant to complete the TM30 on behalf of the landlord (best option to ensure it is done).

Full details of lease and copies of landlord ID or passport are needed. ‘Nice’ lady in immigration completed the form for me! 🙂

What itinerary can my friend follow to avoid immigration hassles while traveling in Thailand and nearby countries?

Richard *****

Just buy your friend a cheap bus ticket to another country. Send the ticket to her and she’ll be covered should the airline ask. Ticket can then be used, sold or thrown out.
