TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is uncertain about where to report for their retirement visa renewal, as they received conflicting information from immigration officers in Khon Kaen and Buriram. The community suggests that since the user's registered address is in Buriram, they should report there or online. The discussion highlights the importance of being at the location where the TM30 is registered.

Your first one needs to be done in person

After that can be done online

Report on line then it doesn't matter where you are.

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
Peter *********
If your tm30 is registered in buriram you should be able to go there
John **********
You do it at the location where you have a TM30 filed
Kool *******
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…
Stephan ***********
@Frangipani ******
Nothing to try... he's registered in Buriram, he must report in Buriram...

@Stephan **********
simply answered the OP’s question…

@Frangipani ******
But you came up with wrong answer.

@Frangipani ******
But your answer is misleading... he has no business with Khon Kaen for the report...
