Hey so my boyfriend and I renting a condo for a year, he is registered on the tm30 but I am not. Now the landlord says it would be my fault and it should have been registered within 3 days the contract was made. The contract is under my boyfriends name tho. And now he says if I register I have to pay a fine from 1,600 baht ?? Is that correct ? And how can I register myself online ?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The TM30 registration process requires that a foreigner notify immigration within 24 hours of staying at a new residence. While it is the landlord's responsibility to register the tenant (foreigner) with the local immigration office, the foreigner also holds a personal obligation to ensure this is completed. If one fails to register on time, there may be fines associated with late registration, typically directed towards the landlord rather than the tenant. However, experiences shared in the community suggest that officials can be lenient. To register, you can visit a local immigration office, or if necessary, use the TM30 report slip from a hotel if you choose to stay there temporarily.
