2 point question for you guys, I will arrive in Thailand mid Sept with my non O visa based on marriage from Thai embassy in London. 

If I spend the 1st month in a rented villa, let's say Hua hin, can I assume The owner is responsible for TM30 ? Or am I best to report myself.

After a month I will move to Kalasin for a few months, where my wife's family live, can I assume, when I arrive, within 24hr I will have to complete a TM30 either online, a local police station or nearest immigration, but will I need TM28 change of address ? 

Thanks

Answer summary

The individual seeking advice will be arriving in Thailand with a non-O visa based on marriage and has queries regarding TM30 and TM28 reporting obligations. Specifically, they ask if the villa owner is responsible for TM30 during their first month in Hua Hin and if they need to file TM28 for a change of address when moving to Kalasin. Responses suggest checking with immigration for local practices and recommend filing both TM30 and TM28 for compliance.

Appreciated but Sakon Nakhon is a lot further from Kalasin than Khon Kaen, so KK is my option as that's where I fly to .

I would file a TM.28 and a TM.30 when you get to Kalasin just to cover the bases.

Unless you have a reason to go to the immigration office in Hua Hin for something else I wouldn't even bother worrying about a TM.30.
