ElephantEgo Posted October 24, 2023 Posted October 24, 2023 I been on a Non-B Marriage visa for many years, and have been living in my Thai wife's house for the past 4 years, which has been my registered address. I did my 90 day report again online, as I always do. However this time I got the error: Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected. Unapproved because the address not match on the system , (Please contact Immigration office) I tried again and got the same error. What documents do I need to bring to immigration to fix this and my report my 90 day? Also can I have my assistant do this for me? Does my wife (house owner) need to be present or not or prepare and documents? May our assistant handle this and and if so, would the assistant need Power of Attorney for myself and/or wife? Thanks in advance!
Popular Post khunphil Posted October 24, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 24, 2023 This happened to me after spending 2 days in a hotel. Hotel registered me in Bangkok, not my normal address. I registered again my TM30, back home, then I was able to do my 90 days... Maybe this helps, maybe not 😉 2 1 1
ElephantEgo Posted October 24, 2023 Author Posted October 24, 2023 That must be it, since I was in a few hotels recently.... well, I can do the TM 30 online anyways right? 1
NoDisplayName Posted October 24, 2023 Posted October 24, 2023 Not sure a new TM-30 will solve this. Immigration (usually) wants you to attend the office for an in-person 90-day report before you can resume online reports. 1 1
ElephantEgo Posted October 24, 2023 Author Posted October 24, 2023 Oh great, so what do I need to prepare exactly for the in-person TM 30? Back to the original question. Please let me know?

charleskerins Posted October 25, 2023 Posted October 25, 2023 Seems quite complicated what happens when you change your address?

Please let me know? May depend on the particular Immigration office. Here in Chiangmai, it has been hit or miss. Sometimes when I stay at a hotel that files the standard TM30 for me, it affects nothing; however, occasionally it causes the online TM47 system to reject me for the same reason you were rejected. When it has happened to me, as noted, I can't use the online TM47 system until I go to Immigration and they "update" my TM30 address (I still can, however, do the TM47 reporting in person). At least here in Chiangmai, to "update", I just told them what happened and they just played with their computer a short time and printed out a new TM30 Receipt of Notification which they stapled in my passport (the passport was the only thing they wanted to see, no other documents). Of course, my comments relate to when someone returns to the same TM30 registered address. 2

Please let me know? My 90 day report was rejected because of "No TM30" I successfully registered by taking house owner with blue house book together with Thai ID card TM30 application form and my passport. I then did 90 day report all at CW. 1
Popular Post Banana7 Posted October 25, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 25, 2023 For people with long-term visas to have to re-register a TM30 at their normal residence, especially if they are the house master of their regular residence, is ridiculous. The message immigration is sending to long-term visas holders, don't travel or stay anywhere in Thailand overnight, else we will make you stand in line for another hour to get another TM30 or fine you for not re-registering your normal residence. Sounds like a another make work project and opportunity to make foreigners pay more fines and make their long-term stay more difficult and onerous. 5

GeorgeK515 Posted October 25, 2023 Posted October 25, 2023 Useful suggestion for those staying in different hotels around Thailand: To avoid TM30 and 90-day report problems, use your driving license as ID for hotel check in .. always works, but not matched or updated by immigration, so the address used for 90-day report stays the same. Presumably, work permit would be OK too (worked once to catch a flight :-)). I discovered this by accident, so I hope it still works! Jim 1
ElephantEgo Posted October 25, 2023 Author Posted October 25, 2023 Phuket. I believe I was able to register my address online using my wife's documents. So I went back to the 90 day website just now and tried to resubmit that too.... hopefully it is accepted this time!

Please let me know? You need to be clear on what you are talking about. Two separate issues, you may need to submit a new TM30 which is the resposibility of the house master so there is no "in-person TM30" per se. No reason why it couldn't be done online if registered. Once the TM30 is submitted another TM47 (90 day) would be required and there is always the chance that immigration will ask that be done in person following the change in details. Other than filling in the form I don't prepare anything for an in person 90 day, I have always ended up at the copy machine anyway so I now see what he wants and then go.
digbeth Posted October 25, 2023 Posted October 25, 2023 so the system does have a way of checking where you filed your latest TM-30 from, or they have someone looks through all the online submission, cause I don't see how they can handle all the spelling variations. the fact that a few hotel stays and new TM 30 submission could cause problem is contradictory to the edict that one submission once you moved in is enough
ElephantEgo Posted October 25, 2023 Author Posted October 25, 2023 Conclusion: I did the TM 30 for my wife (for me) online and it worked. Then I did the 90 day report online and it worked. PROBLEMS SOLVED HURRAY! 2

Really? When the hotels do the TM30's online, they need to put in your passport number (a number which is also on your Thai driver's license).
