Do I need to submit the TM30 certificate each time I enter Thailand if I own a condo but visit only occasionally?

@Gregor *********

Key word "maybe". You need to show me Thai LAW, not some random internet site

@Gregor *********

Unlikely they'd need that. There's actually no 90-day law in Thailand for IDP. But if they did want that, then yes they could do one 90-day report, and then forget about the rest for the next five years! 😆

@John *********

Correct. When I was on OA visa with second "free" year, I went almost four years without filing a single TM30 or 90-day report. Yep, I was "illegal" but realistically no-one gives a hoot! And worse case scenario - 2000 baht fine. Compare that to the money and time I saved not traipsing to an immigration office? ✅

Only if people are going to do 90-day reports.

A DTV holder who bounces within 180 days also doesn't need to do a 90-day report. Immigration at airports and land borders have zero interest in 90-dayers!

Correct. People on DTV who bounce within every 180 days are never going to need a TM30.

How long can you stay in Thailand per year using a Visa on Arrival or Visa Exempt Entry?

Jim ********

You cannot live in Thailand on tourist entry stamps. Immigration officers are not stupid. They see a pattern in your behaviour, you will be denied entry and a possible black mark on your immigration record

What are the requirements for a Non O Extension of Stay application at Bangkok Immigration and can I get an EXIT STAMP before leaving Thailand?

Jim ********

I think by EXIT stamp you mean RE-ENTRY PERMIT, which is something totally different. You can get these either at an immigration office or at the airport. 1000 Baht for single, 3800 Baht for multi.
