Lawfully, If you stay even 1 night at a family place , your family should do the TM30 yes. If you don't need immigration service, then up to you I guess.

But the rule is that any hotel, or head of household is required to do a TM30 for any foreigner residing at their place within 24h

You might get refused extension for that reason yes. I did see it first hand. Cheap option to make sure you're covered. Book a bed in a cheap hostel for a few hundred bahts and they will file the TM30 for you. Fill in the hostel address on your TM7 under place of residence.

And now you know the immigration place. Take the 800thb as an expensive guided tour 😁

Well if you got a receipt from IO for the 1300b, then the fine was no scam 👍🏻

@Rolf ********
if you didn't get a receipt for the fine from immigration (which should have been 1600b ?) then you were scammed

@David ******
but TIT, someone has to pay 😁 he was probably just scammed by the guy from the condo office... Paying him 800 says a lot. The fine being 1600b and not 1300b, I'm pretty sure something is fishy

Yes. Every time you enter the country (unless multiple entry visa, reentry permit)

At each place you stay. If you go for example for a weekend to Pattaya, when coming back to your wife's rental property you should file a new TM30 again. You can do it within a few minutes online. My advice would be to ask your wife to register online on behalf of her landlord if he's ok. TM30's will be necessary for many dealings with immigration such as extensions or certificate of residence.

That was unfortunate that you did overthink the requirements for funds :(

Why on earth would it take 4 days to transfer the money , that seems utterly crazy 🤯 It takes seconds in most countries.

You didn't need one in the first place.
