Every time you leave the province?.............actually  you dont have to buy a licence to watch tv plenty of newer ways where you dont need one at all I havent had a  tv for about 15 years due to the internet amongst other ways to "watch tv"

Try to keep up to date, DOG licence scrapped in 1987, still thats  only  32 years ago so I guess you  need to adapt to modernity. Bit  like TM30 needs to be scrapped except about 50 years  ago

Sorry yeah i don’t watch tv or read newspapers live in my own little world in a nice little paradise

Happened today to my Wife, she rents  condos, the Thai  Wife  looked at the room paid  the deposit , Wife spoke with the owner who said  ok, then the owner found out her husband was farang and said NO, dont want any farang due to TM30 and this is  not the only case shes  dealt with now.

Yeap, as time goes by, more landlords will be aware of all of this and they won’t wanna rent out to foreigners. They could be clean as whistles with nothing to hide, but why take the risk of being fined and paraded around on the news for not reporting their foreign tenants.

there are 35,000,000 tourists a year in Thailand so that’s around 100,000 TM30’s filed every day. If some of those tourists stay in multiple hotels then that number goes up pretty fast . How many people are employed just doing TM30 reports .

Not enough if you go to Chaeng wattana apparently

The Problem is easily to solve:
It is to realize by immigration that even you are only temporarily allowed to stay in the country, you might have a residence here, so you don't change your address when you go i.e in holiday etc.

Maybe the petition should have been about making TM30 reporting available online nationwide? Then everyone would be suited.
 
Except those who's time is so valuable that two minutes on the internet would be the last nail in the expat coffin.

Outside Thailand the apps are barely available . Even their website is blocked

Trekked up to Bkk immigration for TM30.  Been here 10 years.  Takes us almost an hour. Was told by staffers that reporting in by TM30 is unnecessary for us.????  

you  need  to  tell  us  why?

would be nice if they could upgrade the system to be usable.

tried to register online twice, both applications still "waiting for approval - io to respond in 7 days".  sent in a form by mail over 5 weeks ago.....nothing.

 

would consider going in person, but that's a 2-1/2 hour trip on public transport each way.

 

was worried staying in a hotel last week in another province would screw up my report.  luckily the check in girl declined my passport and asked for gf's id card.

This was like I thought from start. No change. everybody still needs to do the TM30. The petition only made the authorities more irritated.

Good work. Now all supporters to this complaining petition feel happy with themselfs.

Think we will need another petition. Please create a law that says stop complain or be deported.
