Driving License Non-O ME Visa TM30 Reporting Immigration Rules Fines and Penalties

October 14, 2018

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hey all,

My Thai driving license requires renewal on the 17th of November. I'm using a Non-O ME visa, my current stamp is valid until the 24th of November.

I forgot to check-in with my local immigration re: tm30.

Two questions:

1) The fine for not checking in within 24 hours is 1600 baht?

2) Can I take an early trip to Vietnam and complete the tm30 when I'm back (without the fine)?

Thanks

Matt

Hat Yai, he has been nice in the past - so I'm almost certain I'll get a fine (deservedly) this time
