    A certificate of residence. Costs vary by immigration office. I recently paid 300 baht.

    In Thailand you often need a certificate of residence. I got mine because I had to change the address on my Thai driver's license. You need one for a work permit, your visa, buying a car or motorbike, opening a Thai bank account or any other number of legal matters in Thailand .

    Yellow books in Chantaburi are sufficient

    Also in Khon Kaen the yellow book is enough

      True, but not everyone has a house or permanent residence in Thailand and therefore a yellow book.
      Otherwise, the certificate of recidivism can be obtained from the provincial IMI.
      For those who are taxable in Thailand, you can also obtain the certificate of residence through the tax authorities.

    You should have a piece of paper with your address on the back of your passport (unless you are staying in a hotel). The TM30 for which the homeowner is responsible. That suffices. But a whole house book is better when you have it.

    At the new immigration office (Bluport does not issue a Certificate of Residency) go to the lady in the low building, left behind the main building. She works there as a kind of octopus and makes copies and passport photos and fills in the correct forms. And all at the same time (!) Simply explain to her what you want to do. She speaks enough English to understand and guide you.

    She will then direct you in the right direction to obtain that certificate. I paid 500 Baht myself last year. Plus a small fee to the octopus lady. However, an acquaintance of mine was recently told to come back a few days later. And then he got it for free. Not sure if that's standard procedure.

    You do not need that certificate for the 'purchase' of a second-hand or even a new motorbike. You do need it if you want to 'register that motorbike in your own name' at the Transport Office. This is not possible without a fixed address.

      So when obtaining the green booklet by name for motorbike as with the blue booklet by name for car or pickup truck.
      Because otherwise the vehicle will be registered in someone else's name and you will not legally be the owner of the vehicle.
      The piece of paper in your passport, the TM 30, is not accepted when purchasing and registering the vehicle with the Thai RDW, in my experience, yellow tambienbaan or resident's statement is a must.

      Jan Beute.
