ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi I would have a question about how the fine tm 30 works. I had already had a room in jomtien chonbury with tm 30. I haven’t been out of Thailand in years. about a month ago I took another room in rayong with annual contract, the owner did not do the 30 tm.now I decided to leave the room of jomtien. If I go to the rayong immigration to make new tm 30 of the room in rayong and show the contract started already a month ago, do I have to pay the fine for delay? thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about the TM30 registration process after changing residences in Thailand. They are concerned about potential fines for not registering their new accommodation in Rayong while still having an old contract in Jomtien. Responses indicate that past TM30 history is not a concern, and they should prioritize their current physical residence, suggesting that they can file the new TM30 online without penalties for delay.

Your past TM30 history does not matter, just file your new one preferably online

Graham Seal thanks for answer. So I will try to do TM 30 online by myself. Is it sure I will not pay fine? Because the contract of new room is already started 1 month ago

Wow how do you do a tm30 online. My landlord didn't do one and the last time I was at imagination they gave me a hard time about it.

If you’ve been registered and physically stayed in Jomtien, you’ll don’t need to be registered also in Rayong just because you’ve had a running rental contract there. It’s where you physically stay that matters.

What should I do if I delay my TM30 registration and plan to exit Thailand without a visa extension?
