A TM30 alternative?

[Gaccha]

Every year since Immigration started demanding proof of the TM30 for extensions, I've simply presented the e-mail of the landlords TM30 application. 

 

But this time, the landlord handed me this: 

 

 

Is this a new thing? Is this adequate for Immigration as the required extension document? 

 

The landlord told me it is only valid for 7 days.

No, not a new thing.

This is your tm30 receipt from your landlord that was issued off registration website, it’s just as legitimate as the one you get from the IO.

[Upnotover]

Yes that's fine, I use the same.

Are people still updating the TM30 every time they depart and arrive in Thailand (Internationally)? My landlord lets me take care of the TM30 myself and I've been doing that online but not sure if immigration even cares?

Some offices require it, and some do not. If you have the login information, there's absolutely no reason not to do it every time.  Then you will neve have any problems.

the landlord doesn't know what they're talking about OR you had a lost in translation moment 

You can only access, retrieve and PRINT the TM30 receipt within 7 days after you've applied online 

Just like it says on the landing page of the TM30 system after you log in 


And this is indeed the receipt you get when you export the data after you search for it

That's very helpful to know. They definitely confused themselves.
