Certificate of Residence


JOHN CHAN

Recommended Posts

I am a British retiree living in Bangkok and intend to buy a second hand car. My question is that besides what I have in my passport the necessary visa stamp, I would need a Certificate of Residence for registering me as the new owner at the Lands Department in Mor Chit (if I am not wrong). To get this document from immigration is hectic and have to go very early for a queue. When I obtain my Thai driving licence, I went to the British Embassy, paid 3000 Baht and get it. Can I do the same for buying the car? Many thanks.

Yes, the Embassy will provide the letter.  But...

That's not necessarily the case, try going for the last ticket of the day around 3pm, once you're there with a ticket you have to be processed and the staff will all want to go home soon!   The cost when I got one recently was B200 at Chaeng Wattana. 

 

I got mine after I'd finished getting a new extension after 4pm, the application took 10 mins.
