TM30 for my wife as a guest

[Rod the Sod]

Please could someone advise me. I own a Condo in Bangkok and I live here on a retirement visa (extension). I never do 90 day reporting as I am always out of the country within the 90-day period. My Indonesian wife travels here to join me on a tourist visa and usually stays with me in our Condo for periods between 1 - 4 weeks at a time, perhaps 4 or 5 times a year. She has a home in Jakarta and we travel a good deal so this arrangement works for us. I have only just found out about TM30. I am not her Landlord as she doesn't pay rent of course. She is my "guest" but is my wife. Do I have to do a TM30 report every time she comes here please?

 

Also, let's say she is staying overnight as we are on our way to Europe the next day (this happens once a year). So she arrives at 9pm and we leave at lunchtime the next day for the airport. How on earth can I report a TM30 to Immigration miles away when it is closed and I will miss my flight if I go the next day? Taking it a step further, if she is staying with me for just one day and then moving on, do I spend that one precious day travelling and queueing just to lodge a TM30 and not actually see her?

 

UdonJoe or anyone else who has a similar experience or who has a suggestion, I would love to hear it. Thanks

Bangkok doesn't require TM30 reporting from individuals.

CW immigration do not enforce the TM.30 reporting law so, as it stands, there’s no need to report yourself or your wife.
