One Year Extension Headache
Yes, every time you stay away from home, you should register when you return. Some folk say not true and in theory, you only need to do it if you have been registered somewhere else in Thailand. Hotel, hospital etc. But here on Samui they are pedantic. I think that it is this one. If this does not work, send me a PM and I will ask the accounts girl. Register online and then download the phone app for an easier solution. Online TM 30 works as well. It just takes a little bit longer. https://tm30.immigration.go.th/tm30api/loginExternal.jsp?value=EXT&id=33990f2fd7b4d09b5dcc2eb17f350644

One Year Extension Headache
You may not like this reply but.... Have you (or the house owner) filled in a TM 30 lately - since the new system was made live a few years ago? Now, many immigration departments are insisting on TM 30's. Samui is one of them. The list that you describe looks like what is required to set the property up on the new system. DBD details imply that a company owns the property? This document needs to be an updated one. Once set up for online input, it only takes minutes every time that you come home from a stay away. NB TM 30's have been around for donkey's years but few people bothered, but immigration now want them registered.

Pattaya police intervene to stop violence as Kuwaiti tourists clash
I read somewhere on AN that they are mostly students on their summer hols. Some probably stay after the hols to 'study' here.

- US and EU express concern over the demise of Thailand's Move Forward party
Thailand never was, never is and never will be a democracy. 😞 The military have been in power too long and will never let it change. They work hand in hand with the major Thai corporations to ensure that they can rape the country and make huge personal wealth whilst keeping the majority of its people at the bottom of the heap. That is why Thailand is working to be closer to China. At least China does not pretend to be a democracy. Very sad. Beautiful people and a beautiful country. "Keep fighting MFP.

I am not surprised. The government admin sections on Samui have not really moved into the digital age yet. I received a Land and House tax bill for a plot of empty land. I had to go to various government departments to explain that there were four houses on the land now. (My house had been there 20 years or more back then.) Two of the houses were still mine and I managed to pay the tax. The girl in the revenue office then asked me to contact the owners of the other two houses and to tell them to go and pay the tax!
