Hi there,

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I have some questions in regards to an upcoming trip to Europe in Christmas.

My son has a dependent visa under me (I’m on DTV), he will soon have stayed for 90 days so we will do the TM30. But are there any else we need to submit before traveling out to Europe? Like any documents we need to process before leaving the country.

Thank you!

Edit: Well, we had our TM30s but turns out it didn’t matter because we recently travelled and checked into a hotel, and we didn’t know we had to update it again to reflect our Bangkok condo. So husband got denied since it was under his name, and we need to submit it again once our landlord updates it.

For those who have recently submitted a 90 day report:

Did you need a copy of your TM30? My landlord filed one but I’m having a hell of a time trying to get them to send me a copy but wondering if I actually need it when I do my 90 day report …

We recently leased a condo for 1 year in BKK, and are coming back from a week long trip to Chiang Mai. Do we have to get a TM30 filled out for coming back to our BKK apartment? Does the landlord have to do it or can we do it ourselves online? Or is a new TM30 only required if returning from out of the country? Not required if coming back from domestic travel? I’ve searched the group but haven’t got a clear answer, hope someone can help!

TM30 question for Bangkok. If you travel to Chiang Mai for a week, upon return to your rented apartment in BKK are you required to do another TM30?

Hi all,

I have 3 months left on my Non-Immigrant O visa, and just moved to a new house.

The landlord of the new house will report the TM30. But do I need to do something for the visa regarding the change of address? Or just when I renew I use the documents of the new house?

TIA!!

If I’m in a rental condo on a 1 year lease does the condo owner need to do a new TM30 if I pop out of the country for a few days?

I’m living in Chiang Mai with my wife and our four children, all on DTVs. 90 days for us is next Thursday. Online isn’t available for the first report, and I opted to try in-person to see if it was as easy as I had been told. It was. I asked another expat for advice and was told to take passports, TM30s, and completed TM47s. I also took a print-out of our house lease agreement but wasn’t asked to show it. I didn’t take passport photocopies. I got to the drive-up window not long before 1:00; it was closed for lunch between 12 and 1. Several minutes later the window opened, and I gave the officer the stack of six passports (with TM47s loose and TM30s attached inside each one). It took him about three minutes to process all six of them and issue printed receipts. Please note that this is my experience in Chiang Mai today; no guarantee that this will work exactly the same in other places or at a later date. Also: our passports are stamped through Feb. 19, but, because I went in a week early for 90-day reporting (you can do it between 15 days before and 7 after the 90-day mark), the receipts show that we need to report again 90 days from today (Feb. 11), not 90 days from the 90th day (Feb. 19). So, if one wants to schedule a 180-day border bounce very close to a visa stamp date, don't report ahead of the 90-day date like I did unless you want to report twice before leaving the country.

[New Passport] I’m about to send my passport off for renewal but before I do I want to know how do I transfer my visa from the old to the new one when it arrives?

- USA passport

- Non-Imm Visa for studying at university

- Currently live/study in Chiang Mai

- Renewed 90 day report on 11 November for current passport.

I’ll do my first 1 year O A extension in the next couple weeks.

As soon as that is done I will start on the LTR.

To be safe I will wait until my home country 2024 tax return is done since that combined with other documents should clearly demonstrate the annual income. I also need to get my name on the house, which should take a couple months.

I’d rather avoid an agent and going thru the requirements on the BOI site everything seems fairly straightforward.

Anything I’m missing?

Just did my 90 day report on the DTV visa in Phuket, pretty straight forward, in and out after 20min, no cost involved for the reporting.

Documents:

Signed copy of Passport info page

Signed copy Passport last arrival stamp

DTV E-Visa printed (or visa label in passport if you have)

TM30, TM47
