Do I need a TM30 form from my hotel to renew my DTV visa in Thailand?
Do I need a TM30 form to renew a DTV visa if I'm staying at a hotel that doesn't provide one?
Answer summary
Yes, you will need a TM30 form to renew your DTV visa, and every hotel is required to provide one. If your hotel is not providing it, they may not be following Thai regulations. It is advisable to ask your hotel to file the TM30 again and obtain a receipt. Some users suggest that getting the form might be easier than going through the renewal process at an immigration office, which can require extensive documentation.

Yes you will need it. BUT I will assume that you are not staying in a licensed hotel. They exist and don't file the TM30 to AVOID Thai income taxation.

TM30 will be required.
Your hotel should give a receipt to you if you ask.
Maybe just ask them to file it again and get a fresh receipt.
If they are not filing your TM30 registration, they are not following the laws.
The consensus seems to be that it's easier to just head out of country and come back in though. Going to Immigration to extend requires much of the same, if not all of the same documents as you applied with, and some need to be more recent and up to date.

Do you mean to extend at immigration inside Thailand? Yes you will along with updates to the information you supplied initially and 500k in the bank. A border run might be easier
