I have another question following on from the answers to my last one. Only people who know answer please. No bu!!5hit

So I’m going to stay at a friends house, initially for free but now im thinking of making it official by leasing at a small cost, say 5000 baht per month. What would be the procedure by the owner regarding immigration and how would they go about getting a lease contract made up.

Hi frlends

I rented a Condo for a year. If I go abroad or somewhere else on holiday, can I rent my Condo to somebody even for a few months?

For anybody not aware. They have changed the URL for online TM30 reporting from today. You also need to re-register if you want to use it.

A few questions regarding rental law:

There's a lot on google regarding the new rental law in 2018, In particular for those entities holding more than five units etc. But what about Individuals or entities with less than five units?

The main questions I was looking for in this context:

... Can they demand double deposit plus first months rent?

....Exactly how long can they hold the deposit after the tenant satisfies the lease and pays the utilities?

....Also, who can legally collect the deposits.. If the agent quits or bolts is the owner liable?

From my experience the agent may ask for the deposit, and then have the tenant paid the rent to the directly to the owner.

Thank you.

Let's minimize the BS and TIT aside please. 🙄

Hi all, hope you are having a great week

Property rental

May I ask, under normal circumstances, when you rent a property for the first time, what is usually the initial outlay

For example,

Would you normally be expected to pay a security deposit/ bond

If so, is that usually the equivalent of 1 months rent

Would you normally be expected to pay for the first 2 months upfront?

I am just trying to get a rough estimate how much money we will initially need to ‘settle down’ once in Thailand

Thanks if advance

*Comments Turned Off, Questions answered 😊*

1. Is it the landlord’s responsibility to report to immigration if a foreign National lessee breaks their lease and has moved out earlier (months not just a few days) than their lease?

2. When a foreign National leaves the country and returns to their same home that they lived at before they left the country (and had already done a TM30), is a new TM30 need to be done?

3. Has immigration discontinued the departure card?

4. Who ultimately has responsibility for the TM30? If the landlord provides and signs the landlord information on the form and tells the lessee to report to immigration within 24 hours of the move in date (with documented proof photos), shouldn’t the lessee have responsibility? The lessee can also fill out the form without the landlord although it is not obvious looking at the form. I think there are instructions in this group as to how to fill the form out without the landlordas I remember doing this once because my landlord was unaware or pretended to be unaware of the reporting requirement.

I submitted my TM30 for my rented condo on behalf of my landlord in April 2021. The lease agreement was only one year. I'm still renting that condo and have since signed a new lease agreement. But haven't submitted or updated the tm30. Was this something I was supposed to do? Should I be worried? Also I'm currently out of the country and am not sure whether I still have to report myself within 24 hours of arriving. Pre COVID, this was necessary and I had to go to the immigration office and get a stamp on my receipt of notification. I know there's an app, my landlord is an old man and wouldn't know how to work it.

Looking for a condo for myself. 1 year lease beginning Dec 1. Any leads would be appreciated! Budget is 15k-20k

MTT started aggressively checking tm30. Make sure yours is up to date or your going to have a very bad day. This is a call to all the people on month to month airbnb leases that think the little "for visa purposes "pdf from airbnb is going to cut it with immigration. You need an actual signed lease contract with the full address, your name and passport number, signed by you and owner.

Another TM30 question - when self registering, is there any stipulation on the lease agreement: i.e. does it have ti be in Thai or is an English agreement acceptable?
