A colleague (yes, seriously) has bought an apt with the view to renting it out as opposed to living there. Please no comments about the timing or sense of doing that:) He lives in a different town to where he purchased and his landlord does the TM30's for him as required. 

Now that he is a landlord, he will have to register in the wonderful system that he is landlord of new property and undertake TM30's if he ever rents the apartment out. 

Will the wonderful system get confused between him as a tenant in one apartment and a landlord in another when he registers as landlord? Will his personal TM30 details automatically get updated to living in his newly acquired apartment? 

Any experience or useful feedback as to the best way he should approach this, ie online or visit immigration is aporeciated. Thanking you in advance 

My wife registered for TM30 online whilst we were in London during Covid, a couple of years ago. She then gave the details to our tenants so they were responsible for registering in line with their travels & visa requirements.

She didn't / couldn't go to any office as we were in London. The tenants in a couple of apts managed it all fine given the username/password.

 

Also be aware they are stricter on apt tax now - as we were back in London, the missus just went back and had letters re taxes not paid for 4 apts - she couldn't just pay them online & she had to go into each govt office to pay it + fine as she'd missed the reminder too.

This has been posted in the wrong forum, the question has nothing to do with visas to countries outside of Thailand.

 

I'll moved to the correct forum.

The online system is for one residence to be reported not the name of the owner of the property.

There would be no chance of it mixing up residences being reported.

Thanks for your responses, I will pass on your feedback.
