Visa advice: I'm extending my ED Visa in a couple of days, but instead of providing me with the traditional TM30 pdf form, my landlord has given me a "receipt of notification" form. Will immigration accept this as proof of accommodation? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking confirmation on whether a 'receipt of notification' provided by their landlord—rather than the traditional TM30 pdf form—will be accepted by immigration as proof of accommodation for extending their ED visa in Thailand. One comment suggests that the online TM30 system now issues such receipts.

The online TM30 system gives receipts of notification like this now

Is this what your landlord gave you

Sounds ok then. It’s just I’ve never come across this form before or seen it submitted

I used to have receipts like the one you posted when I used to submit by mail before I got on the online system.

yep, that's the hard copy of filing a TM30 form (as I said it's the bottom of the first page of the TM30 form they stamp and give you).

that's the BOTTOM of the TM30 hard copy they FILE at the immigration office in person 🙁 and what you need to show one was filed for you

It's the "old school" way and few people actually go file TM30's like that anymore BUT that is indeed a TM30 receipt 🙂
