Dears,

I have an retirement Visa which needs to be renewed middle next month.

I was in Europe for 6 weeks and came back on 7th March.

Question: I did not do a TM30. Was that mandatory ?

If yes, what can I do now ?

Thank you very much!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user asks if filing a TM30 is mandatory after returning to Thailand with a retirement visa and inquires about late filing procedures. Commenters suggest that a TM30 can be filed at the immigration office with a possible fine for late submission. Additionally, they recommend using an online app to avoid long queues at the immigration office.

Thanks found it. I registered on the website for TM30 last year. I could use the same logins. Questions: (Avoid long lines, use the app) Due that I registered, can I still do it somehow online or it is mandatory to go to immigration office ?

Hi Tod, Thank you very much for the fast answer. I'm in Bkk do I have to go to Chang Wattana ? I heard about the long lines, do I need to queue there for the TM30 too ?

Right now Section B <- the section that does TM30's is moved out to the Muang Thong Thani location, it's NOT at Chaengwattana anymore

you can go file a TM30 at your immigration office and get the 800baht fine for late filing :/
