ORIGINAL POSTERHi one question about the Covid extension. Do I need to show them a month rental contract for my condo or is one month ok?
TLDR : Answer Summary
For the Covid extension, you do not need to provide a rental contract; ensure your landlord has filed a TM30 on your behalf instead.

You need a TM30 that your landlord should have filed for you. You don't need a rental contract.

Aww thank you so much for the help 🙂 so I just need to get the tm30 and all the copies etc and that’s it ? 🙂Brandon ************
@Clarissa ****
that's usually everything you need TO APPLY. Just cause you apply doesn't mean they will approve it though. But the only way to know is to apply.Clarissa *****

@Clarissa ****
depends on your immigration office. Some won't issue one at all (Phang Nga) others dish them out like Smarties (Samui).Clarissa *****

every time a tm30 is lodged with immigration it makes the previous tm30 invalid so not all 3 were same timePaolo ************
@Wayne ********
I rented another new room in the same time, (I had 2 rooms, plus sometimes 1 night hotel) and I shown the TM30 of the previous first room that still I have, and no problems, so they not delete the first TM30Wayne *********
@Paolo ***********
Also no guarantee the hotel register you. They suppose to but not every where does.Paolo ************
@Wayne ********
and CLARISSA , I understand, maybe in Pattaya they dont care so much about TM30, and TM 6 also I never shown because lost, they dont care. Only 1 picture, 3 passport copy, tm30 copy, and fill papers. Never had problems or questions, and about 10 covid extensions already done, just for share my experience.Wayne *********
@Paolo ***********
Good luck they will run out soon then you can do what I did get the Ox 5 plus 5 year visa. No stress then :)Paolo ************

TM30 doesn't say anything like that. It says when you arrived at an address.Reply to

Do I need a new TM30 if I extended my stay with the same landlord for a Covid extension in Thailand?
