TLDR : Answer Summary
The TM30 form, which is a report of residence for foreigners in Thailand, is required for certain immigration processes but not for others. It may be necessary for obtaining in-country visas, extensions of stay, and residency certificates. However, it is generally not required for work permits, 90-day reports, or re-entry permits. It's advisable to check with the specific immigration office as requirements can vary by location.

TM 30 is initially required for your report of residence when you stay in private home and not in a hotel

So every time you will visit immigration and they see that you haven’t file the the TM 30, there is always a risk that you get fined, not necessarily, but why take the risk

When is a TM30 required?

It may be required for:

- Getting an in-country visa

- Getting an extension of stay

- Getting a residency certificate.

ASK your local immigration office.

It may not be required for:

- Work permit. This is done at the labor office.

- 90 day report. A 90 day report does NOT require a TM30

- Re-entry permit. A TM30 is NOT required for a re-entry permit.

There’s over 70 immigration offices around the country. Each seem to have their own rules on certain things. Maybe advise what office you want to use and someone familiar with that one can help.
