Can there be a new pinned thread to replace "TM30 Experience?"

[luther]

Seems like it's time for a dedicated TM30 thread. The "TM30 Experience" thread is getting hard to wade through.

 

First of all, here's a link to the form (PDF)

http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004/download/pdf/tm30.pdf

 

What is the easiest way to initiate this? Can it be done online by your landlord as Assist Thai Visa suggested? I'm talking about first time filers paying the fine. What happens if your Thai landlord lives in London?

 

The hoops to jump through so that a Thai landlord can do it online seem daunting enough to make most small time landlord/businesses to give up. (see below)

 

Most importantly for most people reading this, if you really need to do this each time you re-enter the country and you don't want to or can't involve your landlord, what is the easiest way?

 

 

 

Filling in the foreign national residence notification form (TM. 30)

Please fill in all requested information according to the foreign national's passport, as often arriving passengers do not fill in the correct data on the arrival card. The form can be typed or handwritten in clear block letters. Leave a space between name, middle name, and surname. If the passport number is preceded or followed by a letter, fill in the letter too. Write the arrival card number (TM. 6) in the respective field. The arrival card is stapled into the passport. Both letters and numbers of the arrival card number must be filled in. Arrival date means the date of arrival in Thailand. Date of accommodation must be filled in on the front page of the notification sheet. After the officer in charge has verified the information on the notification sheet (TM. 30), he accepts the notification and hands over the lower part of the form to the person making the notification. This part must be kept for further checking.
