ORIGINAL POSTERHi again guys , just a quick one , if I move hotels during my 60 day stay in thailand. Do I need to register at the different hotels I'm staying in . Thanks again
TLDR : Answer Summary
When changing hotels during a 60-day stay in Thailand, you do not need to worry about registering yourself as the hotels are required to automatically register your stay with immigration upon check-in. As long as you stay at a hotel for more than 24 hours, they will handle the TM30 registration for you. This should not be a concern unless you intend to apply for an extension or need other immigration services, in which case the hotel registrations should show up in their system.

They will always make a copy of your passport. No need to register as you say.

Your Hotel should register you automatically on check-in.

The hotel does it when you check in!

I got 12 month lease . My agent had not registered me . I had to force him to do it.
So if i go to hotel they register and i go back to my condo were i rent. How do i register again then . Does anyone understand that . I may have asked it wrong .

you need to ask your immigration office what their policy is. Some require you to register again and some do not.Ian ********

Quick question

As a tourist its no concern for you to have been repprted TM30. Only if ypu want a 30 days extension your local immigration might ask for it. That would only be the TM30 of that moment. No history check
Graham ******
If you are staying 60 days and leaving Thailand before or on your current stamp exit date you will not be using Immigration so you don't need to worry about a TM30 (which is the responsibility of your hotel or landlord anyway).
Jacob ********
Stayed at hundreds of hotels and guesthouses over the years. Many do not even ask for my passport or anything.
Baz *********
The hotel is required by law to register you as a guest..
That's why they take a copy or picture of your passport

Hotels register for you, they ask for passport at reception
Brandon **********
I only stay 11 hours at a hotel. So no need?
Randall *********
Is this a normal 60 day visa exempt?
Leon ********
Yes. Make sure they do.
Alison *****************
I never have

The hotel should do it automatically. That's why they need your passport.

@Vural *****
you have no idea what you are talking about. Every time you check in at a hotel, they report your stay to immigration. You wouldn't have any reason to be aware of them doing it, but it's wrong to say it doesn't need to be doneLeon ********
@Vural *****
believe me, if they find out it will become a problem.Martyn ***********
@Vural *****
you don't need till you go to immigration for anything then they will fine you...Vural ******
I changed 4 hotels in Udon Thani.

@Martyn **********
I have been in Thailand for 2 years, staying for 3 months and then returning to my hometown. I change 7 or 8 hotels each time. I have not had any problems so far.Max ********
@Vural *****
how do you stay for three months without getting an extension visa?Nongnuch ********
@Max *******
visa cannot be extended, only stay permits can get extendedLee *****
ORIGINAL POSTER@Max *******
I am going to applyMartyn ***********
@Vural *****
Correct... You won't have a problem, till you have.. When need something at immigration.Nongnuch ********
@Martyn **********
it's AirBnB accomodations which will cause most problems, because their owners rarely register their guests per TM30Nongnuch ********
@Martyn **********
as all hotels (at least 99% of all hotels!) will register him per TM30, he won't have any problem when he needs something from Immigration. They will see the TM30 on their computer, and they will service himReply to

Any place you stay more than 24 hours needs to be registered (tm30).

@Garrett **********
Gee I’ve lived here for 20 years and never was told I need to register when I stayed anywhere in Thailand over 24 hours! Don’t turn me in! Hotels will always copy your passport that’s all is required.Garrett ***********

Do I need to register with local police when arriving in Thailand, or does my hotel take care of it?
