The problem with Hotels is that they only do the TM30 for your period of stay. Therefore, you will be effectively "missing" after checkout. Is there any way you can get a contract off your pal? If so, you simply show it at the nearest Immi office to Khanom with a new TM30. Or as SportRider just posted, do the TM30 online as well.After that, do your own 90 day reports on line. No need to visit immigration except for your yearly extension (by which time you may have found an agent in Khanom area).
