Roger That Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Background: Arrived earlier this month on CoE with single entry Non-O (Thai wife) e-visa approved by London Consulate. Completed 1 night quarantine at hotel, passed PCR test and since then living with wife in BKK. Assuming the hotel submitted a TM30 for me, does my wife now have to do this again or can it just wait until I do the 90 day report? I also plan to extend for 12 months, if that is relevant. Thanks.

ubonjoe Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 You will not need to do a 90 day report until 90 days after your apply for the one year extension of stay. A new TM30 report will be required before you apply for the extension since you entered on a new visa. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So new TM30 = another one in addition to the one I assume the hotel did for me? i.e. I have to get my wife to do one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your wife will need to complete a TM30 report since it is a change of address from the last report done by the hotel. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ubonjoe can you please confirm when you have time if my understanding of the TM30 requirements are correct for a person like myself living in Thailand with a Thai wife in our own home: A TM30 report is only required in my case if I enter Thailand on a new Visa (in my case 5 year Thai Elite Visa) or if we change our registered home address permanently. When we travel away from our home in Thailand for more than 24 hours for a holiday then we (my wife) do not need to do a TM30 as this is the responsibility of the Hotel we are staying in. Many thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since a Thai Elite visa is a multiple entry visa a TM 30 report is only needed for the first entry using it after it is issued. All of your entries after that would not require a TM30 report. 12 minutes ago, vibration said: When we travel away from our home in Thailand for more than 24 hours for a holiday then we (my wife) do not need to do a TM30 as this is the responsibility of the Hotel we are staying in. The TM30 reports done by hotel are not considered as a change of address. A report would only be needed if you change your registered address. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grin Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) Retirement extension expired, arriving on new Non-O visa. Staying one night in a test and go hotel in Bangkok. Same question, is a TM30 required when I return to our home in Chiang Mai? Edited November 18, 2021 by grin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you are always well informed and a valued reference for this forum, it might be of interest for you that CM is different re:TM30. Before leaving Thailand I asked at immigration both Promenada and Airport and they both were clear that I will need to fill a TM30 as soon as I re-enter (well, 24 hours or the usual weekend rules) even if I am just returning to my residence (yellow book) after spending 1 night in test&go hotel in BKK. My extension would be due much later in February. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they have not read the regulation for TM30 reporting that went into effect in June of last year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandTom1 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 After you arrive at wife’s house, your wife is required to submit a TM.30 to notify your staying at her residence. I believe officially you also are required to submit yourself a TM.28 which is to notify a change in your address as you have gone from hotel to a residence elsewhere. This is what’s required at Udon Than Immigration and I along with my wife submit a TM.30 and TM.28 every time I return back to Thailand after I completed by quarantine. Maybe Udon Immigration requirements are incorrect but they always insist I provide a TM.28 every time I return back to my home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
