Went to immigration for a 1 yr. Retirement stamp. Had everything on the list they gave me. Thinking i have it made. They want to see the title deed and a photo of the owner that i am renting from. I went through a realtor so I'm hoping he cab obtain these things. So renter beware.

Hello everyone! I have a question regarding the DTV visa and TM30 registration. If my rental contract states that the lease starts on a certain date and ends on a later date (for example, a full year), should I indicate the end date of the lease in the TM30 form as well? Or is it better to leave the checkout date open-ended? I’m concerned about potential issues with immigration if the visa validity period doesn’t match the lease end date.

Has anyone experienced this before? What approach did you take, and did it cause any issues with immigration? I’d appreciate any insights or advice on how to handle this situation.

Thank you!

90 day reporting. I signed a 12 month lease on an apartment at the beginning of June. Can I use the same tm 30 when I go to do 90 day reporting end of this month?

Anyone experienced this:

Bangkok bank are now asking me for a 12 month lease for my condo.They say a 6 month lease that I am currently on Is not good enough.This is carrying on from the freezing of the accounts from earlier this.

Hi all, have a non visa related question and would really appreciate any advice. Pardon the long post.

I’m currently living in a rental house which has about 1 month left on the lease. A pipe recently burst while no one was home and basically flooded the entire interior. I called the agent immediately upon getting home and finding out about it and she sent a plumber to fix the burst pipe and cleaners to clean up the mess. I was told by the agent on that day that the landlord had been informed and was going to be responsible for all damages and cleaning incurred.

However the agent is now telling me that the landlord has completely changed her tone after speaking to her lawyer and has gone back on everything she had said. Not only is she not going to repair or clean up the mess, she is insisting we are to be responsible for everything. The landlord has sent us a letter through the agent demanding we repair all damages, clean up the property and to pay for it all. She has also mentioned that we do not have the option to move out prematurely because of this incident and if we do so, it would be considered breaking the terms of the lease and our entire deposit would be forfeited. According to the landlord, we are fully responsible due to our “failure to properly attend to and prevent the situation in a timely manner”.

To put the icing on the cake the landlord has also threatened to involve the police and to take legal action if we do not comply. She claims our passports will be confiscated by the authorities and we will not be allowed to leave the country until the matter has been settled. According to her, this is the law.

I am a foreigner who is retired here in Thailand and I’m honestly quite taken aback by her response. Could anyone here please offer some advice on my next step? Am I truly at fault for this? What should I do next?

Hello all, I made a huge mistake of overstaying and immigration police made me get a flight out of the country and essentially banned me for 6 months. My question is since I’m moving on this day, how do I use this information (and passport stamp) to get my security deposit back on my apartment?

Thank you all for being so helpful as this is an advice group 💜

Hi all, I'm looking at getting a 12 month lease on a condo in Central Bangkok near Asoke. The project has dozens of condos available through various agents. Given that most are all at the same price, is it possible I could get them down on the listed cost? It seems there is a lot of availability with little demand... And in most markets that should mean a possible discount...

Thanks

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.
