Is it my responsibility to do a TM30 upon returning to my hotel after a short trip in Thailand?

TM30 SETV Visa Rules Thailand Immigration Hotel Responsibilities

Nov 16, 2017

ORIGINAL POSTER

My 60+30 day SETV expires soon and I'm leaving for 3 weeks and then returning on another SETV. I have rented a room in a hotel for 6 months in total and will return to the same room (will leave most of my stuff in it). My question is upon my return, is it my responsibilityto do a TM30 or can the Hotel? If it's me, can I ask the hotel to do it or do I have to go to Promenada?

TLDR : Answer Summary

When returning to Thailand after a short trip on a SETV, the responsibility for filing the TM30 can typically fall to the hotel where you are staying. Many hotels and guesthouses handle the TM30 registration process for their guests automatically, as required by Thai immigration rules. However, it's advisable to confirm with your hotel whether they will manage this for you or if you need to take any additional steps yourself.

If you are staying at a private residence, it is required by law (read the article). That being said, unless you have to deal with immigration (extension, 90 day report), no one is going to care. And even if you do have to deal with immigration, it depends on the immigration office you deal with.

Hotels have the ability to do it online so they do it for all guests when they check in.
