ORIGINAL POSTER

Having just done a border bounce via mukdahan to Laos I contacted my local immigration office in Kamphaengphet via their Line app and asked if I should go in to register TM30 again, just had reply after a couple of days to say to go into their office again, I registered with them a few days after my first arrival in December, I’ve been to Kamphaengphet immigration a few times, it’s a newish big office usually very quiet  beside the AH1 highway,.

You or your landlord can file online if you have access to the TM30 account for your address.

Yes, each immigration office sets their own policy on that. While many require you to file a new TM30 if you leave Thailand and return, not every office requires a new one.
