Will not having a TM30 filed for my previous stay in Thailand cause issues for my return?

TM30 Question.

So I recently returned from Thailand after saying a couple of months at a friends. I had no idea about the TM30 at the time and only been reading up on it now.

I know one wouldn't have been filed for me for my 2 month stay. And I will plan to return in a few months, can this cause any issues for me? Or just a genuine mistake.

Obviously I now know better this time around.
Answer summary
The TM30 is a requirement in Thailand where landlords must report the arrival of foreigners to local immigration authorities. If a TM30 wasn't filed for your previous two-month stay, it's generally viewed as a minor issue, especially if you don't extend your stay. However, it's important to ensure that one is filed upon your return to avoid any complications, particularly when doing a 90-day report or applying for extensions. The responsibility of filing the TM30 primarily falls on the landlord, not the foreign tenant.

I think the only time you would need it is to do a 90 day report and maybe an extension.

If u don’t extend ur stay, you should be fine. But it is illegal. The room owner is more at risk than you actually.
