Dennis133 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) Im travelling to thailand on STV visa in January with a plan for a single extension so I can stay for total 6 month, problem is I will be staying with my friend who is renting a condo through an agent, meaning the landlord needs to report a TM30. So the landlord would need to report the TM30 with copy of title deed, rental contract, and ID. problem is my friend's landlord knows nothing about a TM30 and is not willing to do that so I am not sure how I am gonna go about this, any ideas?

jackdd Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Does your friend have a rental contract? Then your friend can do the TM30 for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis133 Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 Yes my friend has a rental contract but she does not have the title deed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A copy of the blue book for the property may be required, but most offices will probably accept just a lease document nowadays. Maybe mention what immigration office you will be dealing with as requirements and enforcement can vary depending on the office. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone who has extended at that office recently can update the requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your gf any worries. Prior to obtaining you extension stay a night in a hotel that will do a TM30 for you and give you screenshot of filing the TM30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William C F Pierce Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I do my own TM30 when I arrive. Just taking the rental contract to immigration. In and out in less than 5 minutes. No title deed s needed. They only need to know where you are staying. Not what you or someone else owns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyx Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 One way around it is, if you arrive on a Friday or a Saturday, is to turn up at the local police station, and (insist) that they register you. They are obliged, by law to do it, even though it might be difficult. I did it thrice in the past and the last time the record of me doing it with them was quite helpful but you still need the required documents 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the immigration office is closed (holidays or weekends) the report must be made at the nearest police station. (sorry no time to research the link...I let you do it, and I have done it three times. How else would one report on a bank holiday or on a weekend ?

If you cannot do the report if really required you can go on the first day immigration is opened and not be fined. For most people since June of last year do not need to do a new report if the done one already and have not changed addresses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtls2005 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 On 11/19/2021 at 6:12 AM, Dennis133 said: staying with my friend You could ask your Thai friend to swing by Immigration, in the ~ 6 + weeks prior to your arrival, and see what is required to complete a TM30 for you? My best guess is that barring a TM30 online report, you'll be able to file one with her help, maybe a copy of her rental contract, her ID and an affidavit detailing your arrangements with her, the form and the required copies.
