Certificate of residence from CW

[JerseytoBKK]

About a year ago I remember reading that CW would not issue a certificate of residence if you never filed a 90 day report. Is this still in effect?

 

Going to finally apply for a drivers license. Currently on my 3rd "retirement" extension but have never stayed for more than 92 days before leaving the country so never filed a 90 day report. TM 30 up to date. Would prefer to get the Cert at CW rather than the embassy.

They still require you to of done at least one 90 day report to them to get the certificate of residency.

Get a  yellow house book, only cost me 50 baht or so.

Alternatively, try the police station.

Re police station. Really?

I'm similar situation to OP.

Several yrs bkk same condo, never done 90 day report. AU embassy does not issue RC. I want one for DL. My understanding was that police station bkk do not process RC.

So after spending some time researching how to get a yellow book, it seems it can be quick and easy or an agonizing trip through a bureaucratic nightmare. I just signed a condo lease in the Klong San area of Bangkok and couldn't find recent posts online about what the required paperwork is here.
