What documents are needed for immigration in Pattaya, Thailand?

Ken ********

Don't forget TM30 if staying with friends etc. It seems this should be completed within 24 hrs of arrival. Never heard of it before and my partner was 'fined' or surcharged 1600 baht for not completing it when I arrived.

Of course it is never a problem until you apply for an extension.
