TM 30 required at Jomtien Immigration for visa extensions

[mcfish]

Having rented my condo for a month I moved to jomtien.

Yesterday I tried to hand in a TM30 for my tenant in bangkok hoping the jomtien office would accept it... No way I now have to make my way to bangkok immigration and then back here again, what a nightmare!

What if I decide not to bother? my concern is that my tenant in bangkok needs to make a 30 day extension, will they make problems for him if there is no TM30 to back up his tm28? How likely are they to fine me? I would rather pay a fine than go through a full day of buses and taxis..

They didn't mention that to me so I don't know

You could send it to your tenant in case it was asked for. I don't recall any reports of Bangkok immigration asking for them to get a 30 day extension.

No sure why he would be filing a TM28. That is something they certainly will not be asking for.

What about when he lists my address won't they check to see if I have submitted a TM30? I'm only concerned that they might make problems for him if I haven't reported him as staying there

The worst case scenario is you're fined 2,000 baht. However, the standard fine seems to be 800 baht. There are no other consequences.

You can post the TM30 direct to Bangkok immigration by registered post. Make sure you keep copies.

You could also send another TM30 to your tenant for them to keep and use, if necessary, when they do their extension of stay.

Easy that's what I will do. Cheers

Immigration requirements here seem to be a moving target so thought I would provide an update. I got a 30 day extension at Jomtien on the 2nd entry of my travel visa today. I asked if a TM30 was required and the girl at the front desk pointed to the tm30 receipt stapled in my passport that I received when extending in January and said that is good enough. She didn't ask or seem to be concerned about whether or not my address had changed.
