Having got my retirement visa and had Having to report in October ,my question is I originally made my visa in khon kaen and I live in Buriram been told by the immigration officer in khon kaen that I have to report in at khon kaen but the immigration officer in buriram said I can do it in buriram my registered address is buriram who do you believe
Answer summary
The individual has obtained a retirement visa and is unsure whether to report to the immigration office in Khon Kaen (where the visa was issued) or in Buriram (where they reside). The consensus from various comments is that, since the individual is registered in Buriram, they should report there. Several commenters confirm that reporting should be at the local immigration office matching the registered address or can be done online after the initial in-person reporting.

You always belong to the immigration office where you registered. Even when you do it online.

I know. The point is you can report from anywhere on line.

If you have reported and updated your TM30 as required then you report where you are

If your tm30 is registered in buriram you should be able to go there

You do it at the location where you have a TM30 filed

You do it at the immigration office closest to where your current TM30 lists your address as. Wherever you moved to a new TM30 was supposed to be filed within 24 hours of you moving in.

Your registered adress is Buriram, so you have to do it in Buriram or online

You must go to your local immigration office, the one in the province where your address is registered.

Try Buriram. If that doesn’t work you’ll have to make your way to Khon Kaen…

Nothing to try... he's registered in Buriram, he must report in Buriram...
