Chiang Mai - I returned from an overseas trip yesterday and stopped at the Chiang Mai Immigration office following my arrival to update my TM-30. I was informed that from now on I would not be able to update my TM-30 myself. I was told it is the house master's duty (aka head of household) to update the TM-30 and that I could not do it myself. The house master must come to the immigration office for the update.

I was also given a paper with instructions on how to process the TM-30 on-line and encouraged to have the house master use the on-line system.

My wife was waiting in a taxi outside so she came in and completed the update.

Like many people, we have had no success using th eon-line system.

I am posting this as a heads-up and will turn-off commenting immediately ... I know the reaction to this will will not be purty ...
Answer summary
Recent changes in Chiang Mai's TM-30 reporting process require that only the house master can update the TM-30 at the immigration office. Expats must have their house master visit the office to complete the update, and an online system is available for processing, though users may experience difficulties.

you should have no problem applying for an getting a user name and password to use the online system since they lowered the threshold for requirements.

Thanx for the update. I think it's because there's a "new sheriff in town up there in Chiang Mai"

Sorry for your trouble.

I also got an update that the TM30 reporting was going to move back to the Promenade mall starting March 1st (where the immigration office used to be before).
