Can I update my address and renew my marriage extension in a new province in Thailand?

Hello everybody, 2-part question here.

I'm on a marriage extension, and I'm due to renew it and do my 90-day check mid-december. However, I'll be moving to a different province in mid-December, so will renew it there instead of coming back here to collect it after it's finished processing.

1 - the estate agent claims they will update the tm-30 when I move into the new house, and that I don't need to go to immigration myself to update my address. Is that correct? I know they're cracking down on updating residence addresses now, e.g. When coming back from holiday, so don't want to get caught out.

2 - am I right in assuming I can just renew my marriage extension like normal in the new province, without having to do a home visit and everything like when you first apply for the extension?

TIA!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks guidance on two main questions: whether an estate agent can handle the TM-30 address update without the need for the user to visit immigration, and if the renewal of their marriage extension can be processed in a new province similarly to the initial application, which typically requires a home visit.

Have the real-estate agent take a screen shot of the online TM.30 they did for you.

There is no print receipt function on that program so all you can do it get a screen grab of the data they submitted,

Depending on the province they will most likely do an in home visit during the 30 day under consideration period because you're new to that province.

Actually Chiang Mai isn't known as much as other provinces for doing those in-home visits for yearly extensions based on marriage. Sometimes they do but a lot of times they don't and just give you the 30 day under consideration stamp and tell you to come back that day for the rest of your yearly extension.

Good Luck (y)
