cyril sneer Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Moved back into an apartment short-term that we've stayed before and the owner is refusing to provide a copy of her ID (she was rude to my wife previously for no reason so they've never got on) Any other options how to do it, or is it not worth the hassle?

DrJack54 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) What do you need TM30 for? You did not indicate that your here on extensions (marriage) etc. Only mentioned wife. If your just staying at hotel for a break then going back to your home, you do not need a TM30.

Popular Post Scouse123 Posted April 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2021 Whatever the OP does to get his TM30 sorted, he needs to be moving from his present rental accommodation as soon as possible.

(Also a copy of the house book) It's also important for your own safety, so that you know that the person who you pay rent to is actually the owner of the place or at least allowed to rent it out. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just as much your responsibility to file the TM30 as it is the apartment owners. If they are refusing to file, complete a TM30 yourself and sign as the tenant. If Immigration request a contract or proof of the owners Tabien Baan/ID card, explain they are refusing to supply them, give the IO their contact number and leave it to them. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Immigration request a contract or proof of the owners Tabien Baan/ID card, explain they are refusing to supply them, give the IO their contact number and leave it to them. Yes, this is how it works. From the Immigration Act (highlighting in bold is mine): Quote Section 4: ... “Householder” means any persons who is the chief possessor of a house, whether in the capacity of owner, tenant, or in any other capacity whatsoever in accordance with the law on civil registration. Section 38: The householder, the owner or the possessor of a dwelling place or a hotel manager, who takes in, as a resident, an alien with permission to temporarily stay in the Kingdom, shall notify the competent official at the immigration office located in the locality in which the house, dwelling place, or hotel is located within twenty four hours from the time the alien has taken residence. or a hotel manager, who takes in, as a resident, an alien with permission to temporarily stay in the Kingdom, shall notify the competent official at the immigration office located in the locality in which the house, dwelling place, or hotel is located within twenty four hours from the time the alien has taken residence. Your rental contract makes you the tenant and on that basis section 4 of the Immigration Act defines you as the chief possessor of the of the place where your you live and in this capacity as the householder, sometimes also translated as house-master, for the purpose of submitting the notification required by section 38. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a rental contract everywhere I’ve stayed, never a photo ID to go with it though Apologies, I misunderstood that you never had a rental contract. As others advised, whenever you make any contract, you always should have copy of ID card and housebook. Ever wondered why this is always asked for if you sign a contract with a company or official department? My guess is that without a copy of those official documents, a contract can be declared invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If obtaining covid extensions or whatever then yes you may need a TM30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searat7 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 What if the owner is not Thai ? I usually rent from European owner and have never had a TM 30 in the past because I would be careful to travel within 90 day periods but this year I think that will not be possible. I am pretty sure she would not have a Thai ID card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just traveled back to the province where I used to live for summer and while here I applied for my visa extension. They said I had to update my address before I could do the visa extension. I had already prepared for that. I gave them both a completed TM30 and a TM28, signed by each my GF (landlord) and myself respectively, as well as all the photocopies. They took the TM28 and said, "TM30 is just for the first time, after we use TM28" I was confused by her explanation, but anyway..... This was only a few weeks ago.

They brought out the new TM27 to replace the TM28, but I don't think anyone including Immigration understands it. TM30 appears to be the only notification IO's need.

TM27 has existed since at least 1979, and still exists unchanged today. I've not heard of one single immigration office that is trying to enforce TM27. So just ignore TM27.
