My online 90-day report was just rejected because Immigration has a hotel address on file from my recent weekend getaway. Do ñes my landlord need to redo/reissue the TM-30 or can I just go to Immigration and show them my existing TM-30 document with my home address?

I received my DTV visa approval in December. Now, I'm looking to sign a long-term condo lease. Do I need a copy of my TM-30 when signing a one-year lease for a monthly condo rental? If so, what other documents are required?

Hello all?! I am on a Non-O retirement Visa.

I returned from a foreign trip on December 2nd with the re-entry permit.

My landlord filed the TM-30 for me on December 3rd.

My lease expired in October and I found a better apartment that I'd like to move into on February 1st. That new landlord will also file another TM 30

My question is when do I do my 90-day report? It's a bit confusing. Thank you.

Question 1: Once I enter initially on a workation DTV, do I need to submit a TM-30 within a day or two? Question 2: Do I need to border bounce on day 180, or do I need to border bounce on day 179? When I re-enter the 180 day clock starts over, right? Or do I need to check in with immigration every 30 days?

Has anyone had success using an electric bill instead of drivers license for proof of residence? I was told you need a Driver’s license as proof of residence, but I only have a passport, and electric bill. (Not in USA so I can’t get a DL)

Hello,

I'm considering applying for the 90-day Non-O (Retirement) visa in Chaing Mai. What are the requirements specific to the Chiang Mai immigration office regarding proof of address? I read conflicting information online. I have my TM-30... will this suffice? Or do I need a copy of an agreement with my landlord?

Guys, it has been asked before, but I would like to get advice once again. the owner of the place where I am staying is not living in Thailand so I cannot get tm-30. Is there a possibility done 90 day report without tm-30? or what would be the consequences if I skip the report. Thanks everyone.

Edited to add new context:

Evidently Chaengwattana does NOT typically need a TM-27 (despite the comments below). The situation that makes this different is that I have not filed a 90 day report at my new home in Bangkok (because I've left the country multiple times and not stayed long enough for a 90 day report) so my last 90 day report from last year still reflects my old address. That's the cause of the situation and need to return next week.

----

Saw a related topic and thought I'd share a cautionary tale from today's visit to Chaengwattana. Error on my part, hopefully will get it worked out. Hadn't heard of this happening before, but I'm sure it has. Immigration officer said I was the second person today with a similar experience. Had been living in Hua Hin for a couple years then started to split my time with a place I rented in Bangkok.

Did the last two extensions of stay in Hua Hin (over 50, non-O). Last year, I left my place in Hua Hin and have been living exclusively in Bangkok. Did the Bangkok TM 30 once I moved for good, but did not file a change of address TM-27 (cue foreboding music).

Today I tried to get a new extension. Had every bit of paperwork I thought was necessary, but got caught out on not having done the address change and asked why I wasn't going to the Hua Hin office for my extension. Explained I hadn't been living there for almost a year and showed them my Bangkok rental contract and TM 30.

They asked for my last rental contract and TM 30 for my place in Hua Hin (which miraculously I had with me).

All ended up with them asking me to write a letter to the supervisor explaining my move, apologizing and asking for their consideration. Have to go back next week (with freshly updated bank letter, transaction record and bank book since it'll be beyond the 7 day period of the previous letter) to see if the extension was approved by the supervisor.

Sooo... Chaengwattana definitely appears to need the TM-27 filed if you move provinces.

Hi all. I’m in a long term rental in Chiang Rai and will be traveling to Bangkok next week. I’m sure the hotel will submit a TM-30. When I return, will I need to submit another TM-30?

TIA
