spambot Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Is there an online TM30 reporting for occupiers only, rather than owners. If I look here at the IOS app it says that the app is for "Owner or occupant of a dwelling place" - is this really true? https://apps.apple.com/th/app/section38/id1451853492?l=th Since if I look on the Android app - It makes no such claim https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=th.go.immigration.section38&hl=en_US And if I look at the browser version url - It tells me nothing at all about who can use this service for TM30 reporting. https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn24online/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 There is no option for occupiers but there is one for possessor which is the term used in the immigration act From the online registration site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spambot Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thanks UbonJoe - Just to be clear since it does show as an option (on the description of the app) for IOS - But as you show there is is no actual option when using the online (browser) from the screen capture that you have provided - Then there is no option for an occupier to use ANY online system (yet) - Is this correct?

cyril sneer Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 so this makes the app pretty useless unless we are able to convince the Thai property owner to use the app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 The ios app probably also doesn't have an option for "occupier" in this drop down, because occupier is never mentioned in any official document. What is your legal situation in this property? Are you really just occupying it, but not possessing it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occupier is poor wording for it. Possessor has the same meaning and the two are one in the same. You can register as a possessor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup - That is probably true, unfortunately since I'm not an IOS user I had no way of testing this. My legal position is occupier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohhh - Right - I obviously misunderstood your reply - So as a person that rents a condo I do not own - I am the possessor - And therefore I can use the online systems to report my TM.30. And just to be clear when I leave to go back to UK in a few weeks time and return in a few months if I get my password in time I can use the online system rather than visiting immigration to report TM.30 that I am at the same address - Is this correct?

I have this problem right now too, and need to show something to my landlady. Will this convince her that I can file as possessor myself, without requiring her to provide any documentation (other than my one year contract)? Right now she doesn't want to renew the contract because of fears over the TM30. Edited August 16, 2019 by lamyai3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on what her fears are; IMO a lot of the fears of landlords aren't to do with potential fines for not lodging a TM30 ... more like the possibility that eventually the Thai Government will use the info to track people running a business/not paying tax. If she's legit, show her that screenshot and the info in your other thread. Good luck! Edited August 16, 2019 by Salerno 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spambot Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 For nationality the options are not that clear - Since I'm from UK - The choices could be Britain, England, Great Britain, United Kingdom - Can not seem to find any of these after translation - Anyone got the answer?

offset Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I am a little bit confused about using the internet for doing the TM 30, if you have to file a TM 30 for yourself you will have to go to the Immigration to file a TM 28 for yourself anyway so why not do both at the same time, or have I missed that you can do the TM 28 on the internet too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexilis Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 The owner of my leased house is a Thai living in the US. So I guess I am the "possessor" of the house. The online TM 30 form provides for documents to be attached to the form. What documents are required? I can attach the owner's house documents (which I have copies of) as well as a copy of my two-year lease. Is that enough or is anything else required? Thanks for any response.

WorriedNoodle Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) In English to possess something is to own it? Is it something different in legal jargon when it comes to property? Otherwise the possessor=owner is the one with the name on chanote isn't it? Edited August 16, 2019 by WorriedNoodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenside Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) Is the Desktop application only for Bangkok? I got as far as putting my address in and the choice of provinces didn't include Chiang Mai. Also in Chrome, I didn't find that the search worked. If you widen the box above, go to the last page and work backwards to find the country code you're looking for the Translate box doesn't get in the way so much.
