Below are the links to the TM.30 reporting requirements currently in force: Thai language https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=689133 English translation https://aseannow.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=689586 From what you have posted, the following excerpt from those regulations appear to apply to your situation. You may wish to take a printout of the Thai text to your immigration office and ask the immigration official it this is the case.

This leads to the question if the OP, @jjj555, in possession of his Thai ID card.

That was exactly the point. Please stop bickering.

What reason for the extension of stay did you indicate on the application form?

I am starting to get confused. From what you have said, your current extension of stay is based on your last arrival in Thailand which you made with a tourist visa. What is this school you are talking about? Is it a school at which you are studying, or is it a school at which you will teaching after getting the necessary paperwork done? What exactly is the "volunteer visa" your old passport? Never mind. As your current permission to stay is based on your tourist visa entry, immigration will make no note of this "volunteer visa" or any other visa in your old passport.

A note will be entered in your new passport referencing the tourist visa in the old passport, and the arrival stamp will be copied over. Nothing else.

Now that the OP has reorted the outcome of his visit to the immigration office, this topic is closed.

Another quirk of Thailand's e-Goverment. But they're slowly making progress. Next, they should find a way for immigration officials to look up the details of the TM.30 notification made for a foreigner's arrival on their database so that they don't have to ask the foreigner to bring a printed copy every time they need confirmation that the notification has been made.

Immigration at the airport will put the arrival stamp in your new passport.

There are various types of "geofencing" and for the download of some of their apps from Google Play Store, Thai immigration uses the most perfidious one, the "Country/Region" stored in the Google Pay Payment Profile. The problem with this is that this can be changed only once a year, at https://pay.google.com/gp/w/u/0/home/settings.

Removed an off-topic post and the replies to them. I am going to keep an eye on this topic going forward and remove without comment any post that does not fully take into account these criteria laid out by the OP:

Removed some more off-topic posts and the replies to them. On 15 April (Saturday) the OP (Bingo66) wrote in his opening post that his visa [sic] was expiring the following day, 16 April, and asked if it was "possible to pay 1900b at immigration on Monday and get 7 days" It is now Monday, 16:46 (4.46pm in Thailand) and it is safe to assume that by now the OP has been to immigration office and found out if he was able to get what he wanted and thus requires no further information from other members. I am leaving this topic open for the time being to allow the Bingo66 the opportunity to let us now the outcome of his visit to immigration. P.S. Immigration offices are closed today, Monday 17 April. https://aseannow.com/topic/1292306-is-immigration-closed-today-nationwide/

It is generally recommended to mention the name of the Immigration office one is dealing with when posting about an interaction with Immigration. Failing to do that, one has to expect to receive information about how each of the over 70 offices in Thailand handles the matter in question, but this is usually not really what one wants.

The United Nations Refugee Center (UNHRC) has a branch office in Thailand. They will probably be able to help you with this. https://www.unhcr.org/th/

The Thai embassy in Switzerland had that information on their website when I applied for a visa November. See what the website of the Thai embassy in your country has.

I recall having seen it mentioned in a recent topic that the TM.30 is indeed necessary. Each arrival in Thailand with a multiple-entry non-O visa is an entry in its own right without regard to where you went to stay following your previous entry. In practical terms, if you have no interaction with an immigration office within the 90-day permission of your stay the question whether your arrival was notified to immigration does not really arise.

Some years ago, the dean of the law faculty of Thammasat University pointed me to www.krisdika.go.th, which is the website of the Office of the Council of State, ie the Cabinet, for thai laws. Of some laws, there is also an English translation on that site. Currently, the link to the English translation of the Immigration Act on that site can be found on the page https://www.krisdika.go.th/web/guest/translations-of-law?p_p_id=LawLibrary_TranslationLawPortlet_INSTANCE_PxcK4uLURwgR&p_p_state=normal&p_p_mode=view&_LawLibrary_TranslationLawPortlet_INSTANCE_PxcK4uLURwgR_javax.portlet.action=selectLawData&_LawLibrary_TranslationLawPortlet_INSTANCE_PxcK4uLURwgR_lawTypeName=I&_LawLibrary_TranslationLawPortlet_INSTANCE_PxcK4uLURwgR_lawTypeId=026011009&p_auth=iRsHIS9n&p_p_lifecycle=0 When it comes to procedures and rules for complying with immigration requirements, what really matters are the forms, rules and guidelines issued by the Immigration Bureau. Regarding the TM.30 discussed in this topic, much useful information has been posted here already. From experience, I would say that the "Regulation of Royal Thai Police on notification of a householder, owner or possessor of dwelling place or hotel manager, who takes in, as a resident, an alien permitted to temporary stay in the Kingdom" was published in the Royal Gazette. There is a website that has an archive of the editions of this publication but I can't remember the link at the moment, but I do remember that I gave up to try finding a particular publication on that site. @ningnong, you may want to print out the PDF document of the regulation that has been posted in this topic and see if a lawyer proclaiming to be an expert in immigration matters can give you the date and number of the relevant issue of the Royal Gazette, or even better a link to it.
