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.
TLDR : 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.
