It is a good deal for you. If you use it mainly at home, take a closer look at the NT Wireless offer. If you have compatible equipment, you might get comparable speeds for as little as 999 baht per annum, renewable each year.

Again, no such animal. Super Social SIM is 50 baht. There is no Super Social SIM 200 baht. You buy the SIM for 50 baht and are encouraged to top it up by 150 baht in exchange for certain benefits; For a cumulative top-up amount that reaches 150 Baht/month: Make free calls within AIS network for 15 days/call for 30 days. Get free access to AIS Super WiFi for 30 days. Extra calls are charged at 0.99 Satang/minute (VAT exclusive). Get unlimited free access to social network applications including Facebook, Messenger, LINE, Whatsapp and Twitter at 4 Mbps for 30 days. https://www.ais.th/supersocialsim/en/

Cannot top up AIS at a 7-11. Of course you know; information for the OP.

Sounds like AIS. Check your DTAC reception before committing to a 12 month pack and don’t assume that you will obtain 30 Mbps at your location. If your location only allows for 4Mbps and you intend to use it mainly at your location, then paying extra for an up to 30Mbps pack @ 2200 baht could be wasteful. If you actually use you phone to make voice calls, the Unlimited 8Mbps pack with unlimited inclusive calls @ 1800 baht might be more suitable. AIS is limited to 100 GB per month, at up to 15Mbps; at a relatively high cost of around 2900 baht or less, for 12 months. Some here haven’t kept up with the price rises.

No such animal from AIS. DTAC only and a bit of a waste of money anyway for just a third of the year. It’s closer to 2200 for 12 months now; you are somewhat out of touch with current pricing and availability. They do have Unlimited 8Mbps with unlimited calls for 1800 baht or less 15 baht per six months extension is somewhat less expensive. It’s a good idea to have the SIM activated for International Roaming(switch mobile data off) in so that you can apply the relevant USSD code for extending, whilst abroad. AIS doesn’t have that option, but small top ups via Internet Banking will add 30 days per top up.

No… that’s nothing to do with you. You cannot not be regarded as the possessor of a room in which you stayed in for a few days. That’s on the guesthouse/hotel owner etc. It’s not on a tourist to ask for a TM.30 each time. Don’t be silly. If you were away, staying in a particular accommodation for a while, then you could ask for a copy of the TM.30. But for short trips it could take a while for the accommodation owner to even get one to give to you. So that wouldn’t work. Immigration will generally be practical in these situations, unless they see something unusual or someone is simply trying it on.

That’s a shame, as deep breathing is a great painkiller. I had a small accident a while back, but minor damage in comparison; broken ankle, damaged hip and shoulder. But I kept fluid and kept deep breathing when possible. Cannabis definitely helped me to view the pain differently in so I didn’t fear it and just worked through it, staying relatively fluid. Now there’s no need for the cannabis, but I’m happy there was free access to it at the time. I’m sure that you aren’t yet at that stage, but it’s important that you don’t stiffen up and lose your fluidity. Meditate, breathe, repair from within and be even better than before. Let that be your goal.

AGAIN, they will process all of those things you try to suggest that they won’t, but first they will send you to another room to update your TM.30. Same address, no problem. Different address but not registered, problem. You have documents to prove that you submitted that you have the correct documents(rental contract), landlord/lessors problem. But remember you can ask landlord/lessee for copy of TM.30 receipt along the way. If you are wishy-washy; your problem. Get it?

Of course, but you needed a copy of the ID of the landlord or lessor, a copy of the Tabien Baan or Chanote and your rental agreement…. did you not? If the landlord doesn’t supply those, then you cannot do it yourself. If they do, then it’s no issue for you to do it online at your convenience.

I’m stating that if you haven’t changed address and have your tenancy agreement if necessary, there will not be an issue. If you have changed address, again you’d better have the documents to prove that you complied with the requirements. I’ve seen them call landlords etc, berating them. But of course everyone is welcome to run to the Immigration office immediately or to file a TM.30 online for their peace of mind. Only it might be somewhat difficult for them to obtain the required documents from their ‘landlord’ in order to file a TM.30 online on their own 🙄

This is exactly what I have stated…. “when doing a 90 day report…” Why? Again stated in the article: ”There have been recent instances of expats moving address and not informing immigration authorities” I expect any fines were levied for TM.30 that didn’t conform to a current address or to people who had no TM.30 filed at all when attending Immigration.

This thread is with regard to Jomtien. I cannot cover the whims of every single office in Thailand. But again, how would the renter know if it was done or not, until they have business with Immigration(given that they supplied the documents(passport) to the person who needed to file the TM.30. If, of course, they didn’t hand they passport details over to anyone, then they know that no TM.30 has been supplied at all. In this case, Immigration might take a dim view of not being informed earlier.

Yes, AGAIN, it can be updated when you next have business with Immigration; e.g. 90 day report or retirement extension. If you are under a long term contract you will have a tenancy agreement showing that you are still staying at the same place and they can update it then. If you return to stay elsewhere, the new place should have filed a ‘new TM.30’. The advice from Chonburi Immigration is to update it when you have business with Immigration; 90 day report, Retirement Extension. I’ll explain why…. Imagine that you are renting a property long term and you leave to go to another country on holiday. The landlord may have no idea that you left at all and there is no obligation for the alien to fill in a TM.30, so how would that work? No one actually goes to a police station to register their presence within 24 hours. So the TM.30 will be updated, if necessary, when you do your 90 day report or extension. That what they mean by ‘anything to do with Immigration’. They aren’t out to ‘get’ you.

This thread is with regard to Jomtien/Chonburi, not Phuket and, in addition, you must be a house owner. https://www.thaiembassy.com/thailand-visa/about-tm30-thailand The TM30 form is also called “Notification from House-Master, Owner or the Possessor of the Residence where Alien has Stayed”. Not the tourist. Some people who may own their homes may be in a different position, as they will be responsible for filing the TM. 30 in the first instance and therefore fines can be levied on the house owner. The ‘alien’ is under no obligation to do so! They only need to supply the requested document to the owner/landlord/manager(passport).

You sound full of anxiety girl 👧 My replies are specifically for the OP and the people concerned about any possible changes related to Chonburi. No one asked about ‘exploring the country’ 🤭 The general rule is that if you are living long term at one place and registered there, then if you travel around the country; on holiday for instance, you don’t need to worry about it. It’s the responsibility of the accommodations to register you. If they don’t, THEY are the ones who face fines. Apart from anything else, if the hotels, guesthouses etc don’t register you, how would Immigration know, for you ‘to have got into trouble’? Of course there is more to your story, that has nothing to do with the questions posted here. Tell us about it. I suspect that you won’t or that you will perhaps choose to be somewhat economical with the truth and continue your petulant child act.

So for what reason did you post a video clip of him? Weird…

Is Central Pattaya Soi 4 in Jomtien?

Are you trying to be funny? I remember taking my eighteen year old Demi Moore lookalike girlfriend into a late night sandwich bar runs by gays and proudly announcing how beautiful I thought she was(not just on the outside). The owner looked at me as if I was crazy. He was actually a kind of friend, so he knew I wasn’t actually crazy. My next looky-likey girlfriend(looking like my Demi Moore lookalike 😊) rented a place from him. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder… You swooning over Marlon Brando is bewildering and slightly sick-making to me. Beauty being in the eye of the beholder.. Up to you, as they say. Different strokes for different folks.

High season there are Russians staying beyond Pupen, so a good chance. They usually turn around by Pupen then. For further south, better to take the Sukhumvit Road songthaew, but they stop around 7pm.

Fascino (South Pattaya) at least

Which they will do free of charge when the time comes…. Which is exactly what it means. In other words, best to have proof of where you are staying at that time just in case. But no need to go beforehand.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder…

He’s a liar. He did as much as he could and got away with as much as he could. It was only a ‘conflict of interest’ when he got caught. Family members doing business with heads of state? Using his properties for government business and charging hefty rates? How much more blatant could he get? Snake oil salesman; as slippery as they come.

Only if you are going to the Immigration Office anyway, say for an extension or 90 day report. At that point, they will refresh your TM.30. It seems this has gone over the heads of quite a few. I hope this puts their minds at rest.

All much ado about nothing. OP need do nothing if they are staying at the same place as before. If and when they go to do their 90 day report, 90 days after re-entering, they may be asked at that point as to whether they are at the same address; they can issue an updated slip then. There is no penalty. Of course this is valid if your stay at the accommodation is continuous; e.g. words, you are still under the same accommodation contract/conditions. So all that can happen is that they send you to the other room to give you a newly dated notification. No negative connotation at all and no need to do anything until you are going to the Immigration office anyway. If they are moving to another place, it will be the responsibility of the house owner/landlord etc to register them. Again, no need for the OP to worry. I think some people here are getting old and full of worry…
