Answer summary
To comply with Thai immigration regulations when staying with your girlfriend, who is the property owner, you need to complete the TM30 registration within 24 hours of your arrival. While it's her responsibility to report your stay, she does not necessarily need to accompany you to the immigration office. You can also register online using the provided TM30 link, where she can fill out the required information, and then print a reference to bring to immigration if needed. Always ensure to have your passport on hand.

Hi, I also stay with my GF in her home and go through this drill every year. She needs to do the TM30 within 24 hrs of your arrival - easiest way is online (use link posted above). I actually do this for her, it's simple. Then print a screen grab of the TM30 and take this with you to immigration when you are applying for the extension (I presume that's your objective). She does NOT have to accompany you. My GF has never done so.

If you have access to a PC and printer you dont have to visit IM. The links previously posted will take you to the online registration site, where your girlfriend can register her address, put her name as house/account name and upload copy of her ID and blue book. Then fill your details as guest staying. (Leave checkout/exit dates blank). And save and print the pdf form of tm30 record.

The onus is on the property owner, so she'll need to go to Immigration or register online. You don't have to do anything other than provide your passport details.

Yes she will need to go with you.

They will give your girlfriend some forms and you both fill them out.

Take your passport of course.

Just have her apply for an account and do your own TM30 online

Since it is the houseowners responsability, it will be you, who should accompany her to an eventual visit at the Immigration.
