TLDR : Answer Summary

The TM30 filing process for individuals staying on a boat is not very common and may require using the marina's address along with the specific slip number where the boat is moored. It's recommended to contact the local immigration office for specific requirements, as this situation is relatively unique and may not have clear guidelines.

This is such a unique question, I don't think anyone has ever been in that situation. My advice would be to ask your local immigration office what they expect for the TM30. Very few people live on boats here.

To prevent trolls, I'm closing comments.

, if you can find out what your local immigration office requires for a TM30 for people who live on boats, I'll reopen comments and let you post that information.

Thank you

You would probably use the marina address and then the slip number of where you're "parked" ;)

ok 👌 I’m thinking more about when you do a regular dwelling TM30 don’t you provide the landlord’s ownership docs or a rental agreement or something? Or is it simply a matter of filling in the TM30 form with no other docs required ?

Is this a "hypothetical" question?
