I have been here on an American Embassy issued Tourist Visa since Jan 2020 and my COVID extension stamp is expiring May 26. For the past 8 months or so, I had been going to MTT counter K, which was quite convenient, as I didn't have to go to the counter that had all the VOA's. I recently moved from Bangkok to a Pattaya condo that will certainly, or already has submitted my TM30. Do I still need to go to BKK for my new extension? I was told last time I visited MTT that next time I came fro renewal I would be going to the Government Complex. I believe that is Chaeng Watthana. Thanks for your assistance.  

If your address has been changed to Pattaya by a TM30 report being done you can apply at immigration in Jomtien.

They may want proof the report was done.

Thank you Joe. In Bangkok I was never certain if my apartment was reporting TM30's and I was never asked to show proof. My apartment manager didn't speak any english and my Thai is iffy. I never had a problem at immigration, so I didn't bother to find out for sure.

 

"Proof that the TM30 was done" 

My current condo has a professional staff that assured me, when I needed the TM30 they would provide it. Or they already did automatically. Should I ask them personally for said "proof"? What might that look like?

It's just a one line record of report.

The hotel staff can do a printout for you.

They probably do it online, so as proof they just take a Screenshot of the website which says that they reported you and print it for you.

Perfect! Thanks Jack. Thanks Jack. 555

Kinda depends on the position of the sun, moon, and stars as to how they'll deal with it.  Sometimes, it's not too hard to do this.  Other times....forget it.  Zip consistency in Jomtien.

Went today at 9:00. Line to get in the door was about 35 minutes. They sent me to a side room for the additional Bangkok to Jomtien residency transfer and update of their computer system.  That took 10 minutes. Then they sent me home to return at 1:00. Finished up the paperwork with an officer about 2:45. Not so bad, but not at all the 25 minutes in and out I had been receiving at K counter in Bangkok. 

P.S. The papers I turned in for the transfer to take place was

1) A printout of the email sent by the condo manager to register my TM30.

2) A copy of my rental agreement.

3) A letter of residency from the juristic person that works daily in the lobby of my condo.
