ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
Before flying to Thailand, ensure you complete the TDAC online within three days of your arrival. When renting a condo, obtain the TM30 receipt from your landlord. For your 90-day stay, you must submit the TM47 form in-person at the immigration office; this can be done within two weeks before or one week after your 90th day in Thailand. This covers the crucial bureaucratic steps an expat must take.
