TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, a TM30 form is required for foreigners in Thailand, including those on a marriage visa. It needs to be up-to-date for any immigration-related activities, such as applying for an annual extension, 90-day reports, and residence certificates. Landlords or hotel staff must report the foreigner's address to immigration within 24 hours of arrival. Failure to comply may result in complications when seeking immigration services.

Yes

no Thai Immigration office will offer you any of their service if you haven't been TM30 registered yet

They can ask for everything if they have wook up on wrong side. Last time the officer suddenly ask for my old and expired passport, so I had to go home 75 km to get it, if I like to have my extension. No reason was explained.

Tm30 or rental/ purchase agreement for housing.

You will need it when you will do the annual extension, some districts also want it for 90 days report, re entry permit and residence certificate.

Every foreigner need to be reported of his adres by his landlord, hotel staff.. within 24 hours of arriving. Married to a thai makes no difference. The key is... "every"

Nothing supersedes TM30.

I didn't say married to- I said marriage visa. Immigration has come to my house and we've posed for photos together. It's pretty reasonable to wonder if this supersedes the TM30 system.

TM30 system is separate from visa system.

“reasonable” is a tricky word in any foreign country.

Sure. Did you get a stamped paper when they visited?

That’s not an answer to a fairly simple question:

Did you get a stamped paper when they visited?

You need an up to date TM30 for anything you'll do at immigration.
