British national fined after random address checks in Pattaya

[nasa123]

A British man has been fined in Pattaya for not registering his correct address.

Thirty-eight-year old John Paul Withers was discovered living at an address he had not told Chonburi immigration about.

It appears immigration officials were carrying out random checks of condo buildings in Banglamung on September 13 and found Mr Withers not on their list of residents.

He has been fined 4000 baht under 1979 immigration regulations.

His case has been listed on the Chonburi immigration website in the section called Good Guys In Bad Guys Out.

He is not being deported.

Immigration officials warn all foreigners to register their correct addresses or face fines.

The BIB in Chiang Mai appear to be visiting local foreigners in order to get them to complete a personal information form which seems to be quite separate from Immigration's Foreign National Information and TM30 forms:-
