TLDR : Answer Summary
Many expatriates have shared experiences of leaving Thailand after not reporting their 90-day residency. While some report no immediate issues upon re-entry, it’s advised to manage your TM30 paperwork correctly, particularly if using different accommodations. There’s a chance of facing fines or complications during future visa applications, so adhering to the rules is recommended for a smoother experience.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
  • Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Serviceto 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.

Yes, everyone.

Immigration at the airport doesn't care about 90 day reports.

1. You manage to get your TM30 dealing with the owner.

2. Leave Thailand and back.

3. Find an hotel that is happy to provide you with TM30. Being in the field, I would highly suggest you to check first before if that's okay. You may spend your money in a good hotel instead of the cheapest one that may be reluctant and lazy to spend time on it for a one night stay.

You can leave the country without reporting, but you may be fined the next time you're visiting an immigration office.

That's not correct. You can be fined the next time you're visiting an immigration office for documents or others. And again, that's a rule. It's made to be respected.

Anonymous participant 296 she is actually very correct. Many do it. And many ignore the 90 day reporting altogether. It's only an issue if/when you ever need immigration services again.

Without issue isn't correct... They may come later when visiting an immigration office.

Okay. You're the one who came to tell me that the lady is correct when she replied to the original post asking if people can avoid 90 days without issue. I'm replying to you that "without issue" isn't correct. I'm not saying you said it. I'm saying she is not correct.

It is leaving the doors wide open for immigration if they want to be awkward with DTV holders. It is common knowledge they are not the greatest fans of the DTV.

ah, well, yes, if the landlords gives you their ID and password. But I think the problem here is that landlord doesn't want to do anything related with Immigration.

It's absolutely possible if you have a copy of the property owners ID card and blue housebook. You should normally get both of these anyway when signing a lease. Make an account and register on this website to file your own TM30.

you think the agent can get me copies of the house book when they can’t even do a simple online form. They literally take weeks to answer simple questions

I don't know about your agent but it's standard practice for the landlord to provide a copy of their ID card and blue house book when signing a lease. This is to verify their identity and prove they are the owner of the property they are renting. You should not sign any contract or pay any deposit without copies of these documents.
