Can I report the TM30 for my friend on August 3rd after his arrival on July 28th due to the holidays?

The user inquires about reporting the TM30 form for a friend arriving in Thailand on July 28, considering that the immigration office will be closed on the national holiday and weekend following their arrival. The community clarifies that while the official rule requires reporting within 24 hours, enforcement can be lenient if reporting is delayed due to holidays. It is suggested that reporting can be done online or at a police station, especially since the immigration office will be closed until August 3. Furthermore, if the friend's stay is short and there are no extensions planned, some community members argue that it may not be necessary to report the TM30 at all.
