They'll likely spend a day or two at our house, followed by a night at a hotel, and repeat. So Technically they are supposed to report to Jomtiem Immgration twice in one week? Seriously?!? Again, if they have no reason to visit an internal Immigration office, then I suggest you ignore the TM30 notification. They won't be questioned on departure of 'where they stayed'.

Master Jairam Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Does the tm30 submission have to be done within 24hrs? How big is the tabien baan? I dont know whether our partner had sent it our home office when they applied for a b visa for me. Thai id card i hav seen. I dont think my name will be on the baan. How much does xeroxing cost at the airport ( chiang mai) pls and where is it. Anywhere i can do a couple of copies free??

USPatriot Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 If you are married just get a multiple non-o visa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I needed signed copies of the owner's tabian-baan and the tabian-baan of the place I say. Your name does not need to be on the one where you stay. 5 hours ago, Master Jairam said: Thai id card i hav seen.

I have lived here 17 years and come and go many times during that time. I have never reported to Soi 5 upon my return. I start the clock ticking for my 90 day report from whe the day I arrive back in Thailand. When I report to Soi 5 they have never asked me why I did not report my return within 24 hrs....I own my own condo? Me too but I rent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you make a 90 day report, they just use their local database for your file. Your entry/exit record is on a central database, which they can access if required, but rarely do unless they have cause to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanoshi Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I've filed a fair few TM30's in my time, even before the law was being enforced. That's just how I read and interpreted the law, so filed when I moved house, or every time I exited and re-entered the Country. In earlier years at my IO, it became a standing joke because nobody filed a TM30 (hotels excepted). I was the exception to the rule and it amused them. Not so now! I can't recall ever filing within 24 hours of returning to my residence though. (Jetlag, settling in) I always put the same date on the form as the date I submitted it.........never questioned. The entry stamp in my Passport, if they checked, would certainly show I entered days before, but where I resided in those missing days is never queried........they just appear happy I complied with the law (eventually). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mosha Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Last border run in Ranong, we went to report at the office in town and was told it wasn't necessary. That's after a previous fine.

berybert Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Why bother about it. You've ignored it in the past with no problems. I would continue to ignore it if I were you. Best to get involved with immigration as little as possible, and not at all if you can. Rules are made to be broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
