Can I continue using a TM30 after moving out of my rented room, and does renting a second room affect my TM30 status?

ORIGINAL POSTER

hi, I have 2 questions about TM30 from bar's friends                                                                                 

 1) if I rent room and I do the TM30, then at the end of rent I go guest to friends in another room, can I continue to use the TM30 of the old room even if the rent contract has expired and I'm gone? or the owner will report to immigration that I'm gone?                              

  2) If I rent a room with TM30, and I rent a second room in the same time and  same province, and the owner do the TM30 of second room (I not leave the first room because I plan to return) , do I have to report TM30 again when I return to the first room? in few words, will the new TM30 delete the previous TM30? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user has two questions about the TM30 immigration reporting process in Thailand. First, they inquire if they can continue using the TM30 from their previous rental room after the rental agreement has expired and they have moved to a friend's place. They were told that while technically a new report should be filed, the owner is unlikely to report their departure. Secondly, they ask whether renting a second room and having a new TM30 filed for it would invalidate the original TM30 for their first room. The response indicates that a new TM30 does indeed cancel the previous one.

1. In theory you should do a new one, but the owner wouldn’t report that you’ve left.

2. A new TM30 would cancel an earlier one.

thanks, but some time ago I rented a second room and made a new TM30, but I did not leave the first room, and to immigration I presented the TM30 of the first room that I use most frequently, I did not have any problems, weird

In general immigration wouldn’t check the TM30 is the most recent in their system, they just require that you have one filed. Depends on circumstances of course.
