Public officials in Thailand have, according to the law, very wide powers. And in addition to the requirements listed on the Immigration Bureau's website, they will probably require proof of residence and it cannot be a hotel or the like. Which documentation they need depends if you are renting or not. But normally it is, among other things, a copy of the "Blue book" and a copy of the ID card of the house owner.

Ok.

You can theoretically get a COR from your embassy.

My Norwegian embassy issues a residence certificate at the address at which I am registered in Thailand. I do not know what practice your own embassy has. But if it's enough to just state an address in Thailand, you have the option of getting a residence certificate. But the problem with DLT is that you don't have a Non Immigrant Visa.

This article from Bangkok Post deals with the purchase of a car, but the same documents are required to buy a motorcycle,
