Popular Post scubascuba3 Posted October 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2020 it should be 300 baht each, you only need 1, the Transport office accepts 1 original and 1 copy for motorbike and car licences. I've not heard of them trying for 700 before. Don't ask them they won't agree with what I've written 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post soisanuk Posted October 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2020 Jomtien has always charged 300 baht for a Certificate of Residence - their application form if I recall correctly, has you check whether for car or motorcycle license - if you say you want to get both, they say you have to have one Certificate for each license - thus 4 photos (2 required per Certificate) and 600 baht. However, as mentioned, the Banglamung Land Transport Office where you get the license will accept one original and once photocopy of the Certificate if getting both licenses. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's increased by 33.3% then since my last 5 year license when it cost me 200 thb. Not surprised that the immig svc are suffering galloping inflation.

Several immigration offices charges you if you want the Resident Certificate straight away, and for free if you're ok with a waiting period of maybe 2 weeks. Jomtien always issue the RC straight away, it takes maybe 30min to 1 hour. I also paid 300 baht the last time I needed a certificate. It took 25 min = 1 cup of coffee outside.

For years they would issue 2 for 500 baht but I've noticed over recent years that they want the full 300 baht for each (total 600 baht) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 It only costs 500 Baht to have an agent get it for you, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazinoz Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Last time I got one in Chiang Mai no charge but given a date one month later to come and collect. No offer of fast service. I heard agent across the road charges 1000 to get it fast. A few years back at CM when they announced free CORs i applied for one and was told 500. I mentioned i thought for free now and IO said money for typist. Lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJPom Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 So many variations between Immigration Offices, seems this complaint comes up every month so I’ll add my usual compliment for Krabi. Takes about five minutes, costs nothing and as a bonus a smile and a wai from the young Lady, couldn’t be easier.???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biervoormij Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I got two yesterday one for a car and another for a motorcycle license. I was charged 600 baht so 300 for each and they were ready in an hour. Does anyone know what the fee is for the actual license application process at the Land Transport Office?

aluc Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I have a question about CoR. I was at IO 2 days ago to make my ED visa extension and after that went to officer to ask what documents do I need for CoR. Officer (non Thai) told me that I must have registered address and to my question how to make it, he told me I should have one already if I`m living in Thailand. About all the copies everything is clear, but about registered address I`m a bit confused. Could some one can tell me what exact papers should I need to get that CoR? I will go back to IO next monday, but don`t want to waste another day if all the paperwork is not in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends upon the office where you were at but they probably mean a TM30 report was done when you arrived at current residence. They would want proof it was done.

Did it just last month here in Bangkok at the Chatuchak DLT office. Paid 310 baht for both a car (205 thb) and motorcycle (105 thb) license, and waited 5 minutes for the machine to spit out the licenses. Should be the same at all DLT offices. Good luck on getting an appointment, I would just chance it and try and walk in, but if you do make sure you have all of the required paperwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dwyer Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Last time I got one in Pathum Thani was 500 baht. Ayutthaya is zero baht and issued on the spot ( 5 mins ). Depends on your immigration.......bla bla bla ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
