Billpro785 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Having some friends from the states stay at my home for 10 days in October. I would assume I would take them to immigration office and do the TM 30 there. Any other concerns I need to know ? I have 3 bedroom house and they will be staying in one of the spare bedrooms.

Popular Post Crossy Posted September 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2022 If they are never going to need to interact with immigration, I wouldn't bother with the TM30, you're not a hotel. Over the years we've had friends and family stay with us and never done any paperwork. No issues whatever. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrJack54 Posted September 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2022 OP, as pointed out. Unless your friends are to have dealings with immigration such as obtaining an extension, do nothing 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KhunLA Posted September 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2022 Technically, legally, you are suppose to ... BUT ... as pointed out, nobody really cares, unless they are the 'criminal' element type. And only if they are 'on the run' ???? IF, in the extreme, someone 'official' should question it, then 'they just arrived' as you have 24 hrs to do the TM30. I've never bothered to do with out of country visitors. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if a guy owns his condo in Pattaya and he pulls a Russian or African FL from the WS and takes her home for a LT. Then technically he's supposed to go to immigration and do a TM30 because he has an alien staying the night at his residence. Honestly, the mind boggles at times here in Toyland. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for a TM 30 if the ladies (or men - I am not sure what FL, WS or LT mean) are registered in the same province. The immigration law, as I understand it, is that all visitors from outside of the province should register their stay. As some have written - no one really cares if you do not do it - until something goes wrong. Then, there could be problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 (edited) So then one needs to check the ID, not only to verify age, but to make sure they are the gender you prefer (IF it mattered, or, were you really that drunk), but to ensure they reside in same province ????

Simply put = if not check in to ANYWHERE (hotel, whatever) where the host will report your TM30 then there is not record.... perhaps you slept in the bar? beach? tree? wherever... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, without the TM6 there's no record of where you are staying. Nobody checks. Even if you stay a few nights in a hotel and they do send a TM30 there's no actual check that your whole stay is covered by such forms. It's really totally pointless.

To even come up with that scenario and post it boggles my mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
