HampiK Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I guess they mean the white paper, so they can make the registration TM30 or TM28... I am always confused which one the owner has to do. So it sounds correct (if the assumtion they mean the white paper). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theoldgit Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 As the previous poster pointed out it's probably as the landlord has a legal requirement to advise Thai Immigration of your residence. I'll move your thread to the proper forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattd Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) Visa card as in credit card or a visa in your passport??? As others said, could be the TM.6 (Arrival / Departure card) perhaps. Edited July 7, 2017 by Mattd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess this means a copy of your current permission-of-stay stamp - which is something I have been asked to show in these circumstances. Maybe your TM-6 card, as well.

Maestro Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Chopper23, in a way you are fortunate if the your real estate agent offers to do the notification of your arrival at your residence (TM.30) but if you plan to stay in Thailand longer than 90 days at a time and plan to travel or if you plan to get an extension of stay you may find it more propitious to do the TM.30 yourself as the "house-master", ie the chief possessor of the residence in your capacity as tenant as defined in section 4 of the Immigration Act, unless your real estate agent has a system in place for you to report your return to your residence to the agent's office every time you have been away for 24 hours or longer if your local immigration office requires the TM.30 upon every such instance.

Not his Visa card or Mastercard as was jokingly posted earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why it was posted here, but, yes - 2 mo security deposit is more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
