If your girlfriend has a longterm lease she could try to set up an account online to add you as a guest and generate your TM30s as required. It's a 2 step process, set up account, add address and then add foreigner staying.

The owner of your girlfriends accommodation will need to file a TM30 for you staying at that address.
