Hi gang.

We our moving house today at short notice , just 2 kilometres from old house , same province and town. Could anybody please advise what I need to do regarding Visa change of address please?

I'm worried as our lease started yesterday and dont want to affect Visa.

Or should I call local immigration and ask them , I just want to ask you guys as I worry theyll cancel Visa if I dont donthis properly.

Thanks for any advice.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on how to properly report a change of address for their visa after moving houses in Thailand. They are worried about the implications for their visa and whether they need to notify immigration immediately or can wait until their next reporting date. Comments suggest that they need to file a TM30 within 24 hours, bring necessary documents like the house book and passport, and some advise not to worry excessively about the timing as there might only be a small fine for late filing if necessary.

For the TM30, you have to file it no later then 24 business hours after you arrive at a location (in some immigration offices), and once it's submitted, you don't need to refile unless you stay the night at another place.

 You'll be fine. Don't overthink it. It won't affect your visa/ extension of stay if you file late, but you will be fined a small amount of money (I think 800THB where you live). So don't sweat it at all

 thank you Benjamin.

I've just asked the lady owner and she wont give us house book or let us make a copy.

I don't know what to do know.

Looks like I've lost my rent and will have to look elsewhere.

I just spoke to immigration Nakhon si thammarat.

He asked when my next report is , its August 6th.

He said not to worry and change when I do next report.

I hope this is ok .

He said to bring passport didnt mention house book ?

Should I call again or have you heard this before.

Excuse my ignorance .

That's a TM30 question. I recommend going to your local immigration office and ask them what their policy is
