Searched the group first and struggled to find concrete answers. Is the TM30 now enforced in Bangkok?
Answer summary
The TM30 is currently not enforced in Bangkok, but it is enforced in surrounding areas. It's advisable to be cautious as the enforcement status can change without notice, and it’s recommended to comply to avoid fines, as seen in other provinces.

Just do it. It’s no big deal. Don’t get surprised like My landlords did and receive a fine because all of the sudden my province started enforcing it just like that.

Chris Jay About six months ago my condo was raided. Many people that did have a TM30 were fined and warning notices were posted by the condo juristic person. When I came home I felt like I was back in Los Angeles with all the immigration people crawling all over the place. From what I have heard the only time they are asking for it in Bangkok is when you convert to a Non-B within country. But everything in Thailand is case by case and enforcement can change on a whim. Since the raid I keep my TM30 up to date. I got approved for the online system so I just report myself within 24 hours of arriving back in Thailand.
