TLDR : Answer Summary

In Thailand, while you are legally required to inform immigration about where you stay (as per TM30 regulations), many expats state that if you primarily reside at your original address, you may not need to worry about declaring a second apartment. However, it's important to remain cautious as there could be informants.

No don't worry if your keeping your original address and spending most of your time there

By law, you're supposed to inform them where do you stay (TM30). In practice, just beware of informants.
