I’ve no idea on their actual policy, just from what others have posted.

In Phuket if you stay in a hotel or a hospital for one night then that overrides your TM30 and you need to file a new one.

Does my friend need to refile the TM30 every time he returns to Jomtien after internal travel in Thailand?

Stuart *********

It literally takes less than five minutes to file a TM30 online. If their landlord is going to charge you that then they need a new landlord.

Seemingly Jomtien don’t require a new TM30 if returning to your main address from within Thailand but do if you travel overseas.

Where can I apply for a DTV visa in person in Thailand?

Stuart *********

Jakarta, Taipei and Manila are walk-in, with no appointment needed.

For the moment Vientiane and Savannakhet and Yangon are walk-in but you’ll need an appointment.

Singapore for foreigners you apply online but physically get a visa stamp once approved.

Sorry but way out of my area of knowledge. I personally don’t see an import happening but there may be ways.

You can’t own land as a foreigner. There are quasi ways of making you the “owner” via a company or such but probably not reliable for the long term.

@Scott ********

I have no idea what one of those may be.

Used car imports are banned unless you are a diplomat.

There may be ways to do so “under the radar” or via bribes but for your average guy it’s not possible.

You have possibly known them for a few years. Since 2019 it’s not possible to import a used car into Thailand unless you are some form of diplomat.

You won’t be outrightly owning land, nor will you be importing cars.

Probably best to speak to a lawyer who is well versed in US options for doing stuff here.

Do I need to re-submit all documents to extend my marriage visa in Thailand?

Stuart *********

All the same documents again. And possibly a few more. Visit your immigration office and ask for the hand out for an extension based on marriage.
