No do not overstay for any reason. Just go get the TM28, and any of your addresses will be fine.
sorry you may have misheard me. I'm not overstaying my visa, I meant stay at a hotel for one night for a tm30 receipt/screenshot. I'm just trying to find the easiest way to get my extension, whether it be a fine or staying at a hotel for a night. I don't want to get any of my airbnb hosts in trouble either as they all have been very kind and treated me well. I'm leaning towards staying at a hotel for a night or two and asking for a tm30 receipt. I have not heard of a tm28 and it looks like it's a change of address? this will suffice over tm 30? I have not heard of tm28 and it seems complicated.

There is every indication that arrivals to the Kingdom on a tourist VISA or exemption stamp do not need to worry about TM30 as this is the responsiblity of the landlord/hotel. You are good to go. If it comes up, you simply remind them of this.
The responses before you contradict what you say which worries me greatly. I'm on a tight budget and stupidly already booked a airbnb till the day my visa runs out without realizing this tm30 fiasco. would 1 overnight stay at a hotel suffice for a tm30? also, would I state that the hotel is my address, even though Id probaly be staying at the airbnb during the time I go to the CW office?

Hi, sorry if this has been asked already but I have been stressed out about my situation. I have a United States passport, arrived in Bangkok on a 30 day visa exempt. it is about expire in a little over a week so I am getting ready to go to the Bangkok CW office for an extension. I have been staying in multiple airbnbs and I'm pretty sure they have not been filling out any tm30. The one stay that asked for my passport, I asked if they did a tm30 and they did not. Will this be a problem for getting an extension? I don't mind paying a fine if it's required for the extension but I'm worried I will be flat out denied. Is there something I should do before heading to the office to make sure the extension takes place or am I being too paranoid?
Extending visa exempt, will I need Tm30?

Would you suggest I try going in for an extension, and see if they ask for a tm30? if they do want the tm30, can I just try to check in at a hotel for 2 nights and try again or do I only get one shot at this?
