TLDR : Answer Summary
When moving to a new location in Thailand, you are required to inform immigration about your change of address using a TM28 form within 24 hours of arrival. Some immigration offices may also require submission of a new TM30 form. It's advisable to report your change promptly to avoid potential fines, as there can be penalties for not reporting your address change on time.

I suggest you go to immigration at promenada (2nd floor) within 24hrs of your arrival. Even with a metv, I got fined 1600baht for not reporting my stay at a friends house!

Official you need to inform them within the 24 hours with a TM28 form (change of address), some Immigration offices also want a new TM30 form.

They guesthouse has to report you with Immigration, so you can wait till you find a more permanent address and than change your address.

I will be staying in a guesthouse for a few days until I find somewhere to live. Do I need to tell them I’m staying at a guesthouse or do I wait till I find a more permanent address.
