How do TM30 rules apply when renting accommodation on a tourist visa in Thailand?

Tom Reubens you are very confused. 😐

Perhaps you should review English comprehension. I stated the 90 day report does not apply to tourist visa holders. Hotel operators file occupancy reports on tourist without them doing anything except handing over their passport when checking in. The law states OVER 90 days.

@Tom ********

most of what you say is wrong, or has no reference to the OP. First, the TM30 has to be filed within 24 hours on any foreigner staying in Thailand, no matter where they are staying. Second, a tourist, on any kind of tourist entry, can only stay in Thailand continuously for 90 days at the most, the 60 day entry stamp, then the 30 day extension, at which point they must leave Thailand. They can re-entry, but still can stay in Thailand no more than 90 days max as a tourist, so the 90 day report is never a concern for tourists. A METV, multi-entry tourist visa holder can stay in Thailand for 90 days with the 30 day extension. They are not required to leave after 60 days. Also, the landlord/accommodation provider has absolutely nothing to do with the 90 day reporting.

the information in quotation marks was from the Thai immigration website.

no need to go to immigration. Work with the owner to set up an online account for the property, (share the login info), so that you can print out a new pdf after each entry to country, so you dont have to report to the owner each time for him to do it, or spending time at immigration. But its unlikely you will need it if your not in country for more than 90 days or not dealing with the government. But best to get a copy of the initial one.

I think you therefore need the approval from the landlord if you want to do it yourself, would be easier to let it have done by the landlord who did it the first time.
