Every single time you leave the country and return, you need to resubmit the TM30. This is with the Bangkok offices. It doesn’t matter if your rental contact is for 1, 5 or 10 years. You leave the country, you resubmit the TM30.
Bangkok will ask for the TM30. I’ve been to both offices in Bangkok a lot over the past two + years and they have been asking for it. I was actually charged 800฿ for not filing it.
I wasn’t called into anywhere. I was the first person at the check documents desk when they opened at 8:30am. I made the appointment knowing I was going to be there well ahead of time. All I wanted to do was to find out if I had the wait in that queue when I had an appointment.
being first in line is what got me in and out so fast. Like I mentioned to you, they didn’t care about my appointment in the slightest. I’ll take your advice about making the appointment at a different time in the future. Thanks again for your input, it’s always appreciated.
yes, I’m aware of the ETA that’s supposedly starting in December. I would assume anyone traveling would do their due diligence, to find out what’s required of them to enter the country.
you can do it yourself. Either online, which is a bit more of a pain in the ass as you’ll need all the information and permission from the owner/landlord. Or, you can go to your location immigration office and do it there. You’ll need the information from the owner/landlord. Copy of ID card, copy of house book and copy of contract.
