BKK / CW - Am I supposed to notify upon return from intl trip?

Featured Replies

In Bangkok, under Chaeng Wattana are we supposed to notify building apt manager to notify CW upon our arrival?

 

O visa - marriage.

 

Thank you

It would be best to inform the manager to a report. They have been enforcing it for owners and managers of properties in Bangkok.

For your side of it they have not been enforcing it.

For general reference sake, an apartment owner has the responsibility advise for registration purposes the presence of a foreigner occupying the apartment. There is a grace period of one day (24 hours) to make the report after the arrival of the foreign occupant.  Therefore, you should  advise the apartment owner of your arrival. The immigration office will be aware that you have arrived because you will have been logged at the national entry point.

 

TM 30 procédure shall applicable include if you comeback from oversea and stay in bangkok area anywhere hotel or condominium complex manager have to do .... 
it is clearly written in the Web site Division 1 no exception 
please, read the Public handbook

Notification of residence of foreigners for businesses
According to section 38 of the 1979 immigration act, "House owners, heads of household, landlords or managers of hotels who accommodate foreign nationals on a temporary basis who stay in the kingdom legally, must notify the local immigration authorities within 24 hours from the time of arrival of the foreign national." If there is no immigration office in the province or locality of the respective house or hotel, the notification is made to the local police station. In Bangkok the notification is made to the Immigration Bureau. The notification of residence of foreign nationals is made by the manager of licensed hotels according to the hotel act, owners of guesthouses, mansions, apartments and rented houses using the form TM. 30. 
The notification of residence of foreign nationals within 24 hours can be made in a number of ways to make the notification as convenient as possible:

 

  • In person at the respective office, or
  • Through an authorised person at the respective office, or
  • By registered mail, or
  • Via internet.
Filling in the foreign national residence notification form (TM. 30)

Please fill in all requested information according to the foreign national's passport, as often arriving passengers do not fill in the correct data on the arrival card. The form can be typed or handwritten in clear block letters. Leave a space between name, middle name, and surname.

  • If the passport number is preceded or followed by a letter, fill in the letter too.
  • Write the arrival card number (TM. 6) in the respective field. The arrival card is stapled into the passport. Both letters and numbers of the arrival card number must be filled in.
  • Arrival date means the date of arrival in Thailand. Date of accommodation must be filled in on the front page of the notification sheet.

After the officer in charge has verified the information on the notification sheet (TM. 30), he accepts the notification and hands over the lower part of the form to the person making the notification. This part must be kept for further checking.

2. Question :  What do the house-master/owner or possessor of the residence have to do,if  the alien granted temporary stay in Thailand has stayed in his/her house/residence? (Is it possible for an agent to do for?)

    Answer :  He/She (The owner of the residence) must notify (by the Form TM.30) to the competent official Of the Immigration Office located in the same area of that house/residence within 24 hours from the time of arrival of the alien. However, such notification could be made in person or by an agent or sent with completed Form( TM.30) by registered post.

Thanks that's all very solid and informative. Just confirms what I'd known.

 

Never done it before. Ten years. Five years on the O visa. Never a problem on renewal.

 

Thanks again
