Hello any good

Immigration lawyer?

TM30 problem – landlord refusing – urgent

Hi everyone, I need advice urgently 🙏

I’m in Bangkok with a signed 1-year lease, valid visa, and all my documents, but my landlord refuses to file TM30 or provide ID. Agencies I contacted say they can’t proceed without landlord documents.

I have:

- Passport & visa

- Signed lease (owner name + passport number)

I don’t have:

- TM30 from the condo

- Landlord ID copy

My school requires TM30 for immigration, and my deadline is 13 February.

Questions

- Has anyone solved TM30 without landlord cooperation?

- Can a condo juristic office file TM30 instead?

- Any agency in Bangkok that actually helped in this case?

- What happens if I explain this directly at immigration?

Any real experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏

URGENT HELP- DTV

I filled out the application form in the UK, travelled to Europe where I recieved this update. How would you interpret this? Are they saying I can’t travel from where I am (not uk) to Bangkok directly or that I have no choice but to stay where I am and apply at the embassy nearest to me all over again/ go back to the uk and apply from there?

Ideally I don’t want to cancel the application I’ve done but I’m not sure if this is a possibility. I’m very worried about this and would appreciate any help!

Can somone help me please. Should I get an agent or visa lawyer

How do you get a work permit or work visa to start a business?

Currently doing my DTV with workaction.

I got a request to send "employment letter with detail of describe how it is your job to be for remote worker".

Here is the thing, my work thinks i'm going to do remote work from somewhere in Europe. I don't want to mention Thailand, because of envy and other reasons that will complicate my position.

Do the visa workers usually call in to your work to confirm the remote work?

I just got my retirement extension at CW imm. I stayed in a hotel for 2 nights and they sent in the TM30 on me. So I’m at immigration and they asked if I stayed at the hotel. It turned out to be that that was the last entry. I said that I believed TM30 was for retuning from outside the country. They told me that it had changed and I have to report every single time. I believe this has something to do with some change in the system in September of this your. I believe that change erased my 11 year history staying at the exact same address, just from the way they talked. Not sure on that.

TM30. You have to do it if you will need any services from Thai Immigration or you are entering a renting agreement, then the landlord have to file TM30 for you, you do nothing.

Say, your cousin or friend come to visit you in Thailand, in a condo/house you already rent or own, no action, no TM30 for them.

I was just told by a long term Thai resident (an American), after an uporoar from the tourism industry, Thais scrapped the hotel obligations to fill in your TM30, 2 years ago.

Indeed, 40 million tourists a year, many stay in hotels for a night or two, change and travel further, what Thai workforce is needed to punch in all those TM30s.

Has anyone obtained Thai citizenship as a stateless person? I understand one of the exceptions to obtaining citizenship accommodates stateless people.

Long story short, I am of ethnic minority group born in rural Thailand. My family fled to the US post-war. None of us have Thai citizenship nor Thai birth certificates as most stateless people. My US passport and citizenship certificate state Thailand as country of birth.

Would this be sufficient documenttion for me to apply for Thai citizenship when I relocate? Based on my limited research, the only other requirements are to declare a current Thai citizen relative living there and to be able to write my name in Thai.

Thai embassy in Los Angeles does not assist with obtaining citizenship except for those who are of actual Thai ancestry blood.

I was wondering how much the new immigration law affects DTV visa holders.

Is there anything we should be aware of, and if so, when should we proceed?

If this topic has already been discussed, please feel free to point me to the relevant post.

Thanks in advance!
