davehowden Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Is a copy of my TM30 required for 90 Day reporting ? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwakvfr Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I have completed 90 Day reports at CM Immigration and did not need an actual TM-30. Management at my apartment building reports online to immigration as to all foreigners who are renting. When I first moved in management wanted copies of passport, visa, entry stamp and arrival card.

So what you're saying sqwakvfr is that your apartment building actually did your TM30 for you so you were fine. To op- yes, you need a TM30 registered - people above have no idea what they are talking about. I've been sent away from Promenada trying to do a 90 day report before without a TM30 on file. Irrespective of whether the copy is in your passport or not, it needs to be in their system - ie they can confirm it via computer. Has been the case now for roughly 1 year.

Has been the case now for roughly 1 year. bang on Lord, it is simple as that, did my 90 day report y/day through a Visa Agent, whilst signing the forms she asked me if i have changed my address from my current TM30 one , i said no , the same, she replied very good ,no probs at all come back in 30 mins, to pick up your passport, therefore i am in their system, since i paid the TM30 fine around Jan this year , been in out of the country twice plus two 90 day reports since then, and its been a breeze the ones that have the problems with the Immgr Dept ,generally are the problems themselves have your house in order and they are very easy to deal with, thats from my experiences anyway , to the O/P your main problem is how big the line is going to be to get your 90 day report done, y/day was chockers , best of luck on that nice morning to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimGant Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Quote been in out of the country twice So you subsequently went to Immigration twice to have your TM30 annotated with another red meatball -- or not? This reportedly is the requirement, at least in CM, and I now have two red meatballs on my original TM30 receipt. But I wonder if the only thing that has changed, namely the TM6 arrival card number, would ever be detected, when or if they ever look at your TM30 record in their computer...... ?I suspect not, as probably the only thing they look for is that your 90 day report address is the same as that in your TM30 file. Thus, I'm probably wasting my time adding new red meatballs after I travel abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One doesn't always get the circular red stamp (when I re-entered a few weeks ago, all I got was a blue date stamp on the TM30 Receipt of Notification).

As always with Thaialnd ...it depends on your local office or the I/O you see on the day. I have NEVER had to produce one in Udon Thani. Last year when I did a trip " home" to australia and returned this was a hot topic ..so I and the GF went to local office to report my RETURN from Australia. Told ....dont need as address same as on computer( from 90 day reports , from extensions to permission to stay based on retirement , from arrivals card at swampy innigration) as it had been for 3 years. disclaimer .......your experience may differ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwakvfr Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Lordblackader "So what you're saying sqwakvfr is that your apartment building actually did your TM30 for you so you were fine". Yes. This is what the management said. So far no problems but the test will be when I apply for the extension of my Non-Imm O-A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our condo building inputs TM30s also, but they always give us a "print screen" of their input. They don't actually receive a receipt along the lines of what you receive when you submit a TM30 at Prom, but the document given to us by the condo "proves" they input the info into the Imm. system.

JimGant Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Quote They also write in the date of your entry into the country near the "red meatball." Yeah, I see that now. The other date on the receipt, for the first meatball, is the date I filed the TM30, not the date I arrived in country, although that information, plus TM6 number, is included on the original TM30 filing. So, most likely, my second meatball information, i.e., a new TM6 number and a new arrival date are entered into my TM30 computer file. That evensteven's agent wanted to know if his TM30 address information had changed tells me Immigration is looking to find TM30 violators. And why not -- with this cash cow, Immigration police can now throw bigger parties than those from the traffic cops and their monthly roadblocks. Evenstevens hasn't reported back on whether or not he applied for new meatballs when he left the country twice. I suspect not -- but I also suspect they're not checking that your TM30 arrival date on file is out of kilter with your new 90-day reporting schedule. And probably makes sense, since you're not required to file a new TM30, but just present your old receipt with your new TM6 data. Thus, (probably) not a fineable offense, so no 1600 baht extortion allowed. Curious, tho', what evensteven's agent advised about this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he is trying to say is that when he returned to Thailand from abroad on two occasions immigration endorsed his original receipt of notification of his TM30 each time.Officially should be within 24 hours of return.

I know what the reported procedure is -- including you have 7 days, not 24 hours, to report your return from abroad if no change of address. That he did this "DIY", as he's the agent proponent here (which I agree with), is the curious part. Question: Can you use an agent for TM30 reporting, and/or TM30 receipt endorsements for out of country sojourns? I'm just trying to figure out if I need to get anymore TM30 receipt endorsements (red meatballs, in my experience) for future travel abroad.

How can anyone on here use an agent to report tm30 when it's the responsibility of the building/ house owner, unless they are a condo owner? I did mine for my wife as she was working, but she filled in the form and I just gave it to them to note and give me a receipt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
