I am, currently immobile. My 90 day report was due (My 1st since returning from Vietnam in July) I did try on line, but it was refused of course. I had an agent do it for me and all is well. One thing bothers me though, Imm Officer at CW KEPT MY TM30. Now I have done 90 day reports at CW and have never been asked for, or even to produce my TM30. Is this now a requirement at CW? 

(I still have my original TM30 which was done when I first arrived 6 years ago) 

TIA

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user, currently immobile, encountered issues with their 90-day report after returning from Vietnam, noting that they had to use an agent for assistance. They raised a concern about the Immigration Officer at Chaeng Watthana holding onto their TM30 during the process, as they have previously completed 90-day reports without having to produce it. They seek clarification on whether the TM30 is now a requirement at this immigration office.

probably a mistake.. Here in CM they always want to see tm30 if 90 day in person, but they do give it back..Not a big deal though as you are in the system. Next 90 day can be online - unless you have been away, in which case you will need new tm30 anyway

So if you do your TM30 online you just reprint the one last used (if within 7 days of creation) or create a new one when required. In the future download and save the PDF not just print it ;)
