TLDR : Answer Summary
Once you have obtained a DTV, you are required to complete a 90-day report to immigration while in Thailand. Additionally, it is necessary to ensure that the TM30 form is submitted, especially if you move to a different location. Regular reporting and compliance with local regulations are crucial for staying in good standing as an expat.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
  • Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Service to get your in-person report done and mailed to you for as low as 375 THB (even if the online system doesn't work for you).
  • For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
  • Join the Thai Visa Advice Facebook Group to ask your questions, and get advice from others.

90 days report each 90 consecutive days in Thailand. TM30, done by the owner of your place but usually required for your 90 days report.

Enjoy.

That's the most important thing.

(And do 90 day reporting at immigration, if/when you stay that long.)
