Read in Thai against the Immigration Act B.E. 2522, sections 4 (the definition of house master), 38 and 77, and checked in the government&#8217;s central law register that none of the Act&#8217;s recorded versions converts the section 77 fine under the Administrative Fines Act B.E. 2565. Not verified in this review: the Director-General&#8217;s regulation on how the notice is lodged (the online and postal routes), the document lists, and the enforcement practice described, which varies by office. Re-checked on 5 October 2026: section 38 re-read in Thai (24 hours, the immigration office for the area or the police station where there is none, the Immigration Division in Bangkok, lodging under the Director-General&#8217;s regulation); no change made.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/tm30\/\">TM30<\/a> is the notification a property owner files when a foreigner stays overnight at their address. The duty comes from <strong>Article 38 de la loi tha\u00eflandaise sur l'immigration de B.E. 2522 (1979)<\/strong> and falls on whoever takes in a foreigner who is permitted to stay in Thailand temporarily: the house master, the owner or possessor of the dwelling, or the hotel manager. The Act defines the house master as the head of the household in occupation, whether as owner, as tenant or in any other capacity (section 4), so a tenant who puts up a foreign guest, even a foreign tenant, can be the person who must file. Immigration offices routinely ask to see the TM30 receipt when a foreigner applies for a visa extension, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/work-permit\/\">permis de travail<\/a> ou un <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/90-day-report-thailand\/\">D\u00e9claration de 90 jours (TM.47)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-rank-math-toc-block\" id=\"rank-math-toc\"><h2>Table des mati\u00e8res<\/h2><nav><ul><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#legal-framework\">Cadre juridique<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#required-documentation\">Documents requis<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#submission-methods\">M\u00e9thodes de soumission<\/a><\/li><li class=\"\"><a href=\"#compliance-and-penalties\">Conformit\u00e9 et sanctions<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"legal-framework\">Cadre juridique<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">L'obligation est fix\u00e9e par l'article 38 de la loi sur l'immigration de 2522 (1979).

It applies only where the foreigner is permitted to stay in the Kingdom temporarily, so a foreigner holding permanent residence is outside it; within that group, the type of visa makes no difference. The fine falls on whoever owed the notification: usually the landlord, but the tenant where the tenant is the house master who took the foreigner in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reporting-timeline\">Calendrier de rapport<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">TM30 registration must occur within 24 hours of a foreigner\u2019s arrival at the property. This applies to new arrivals and returning residents after travel abroad. The notice goes to the immigration office for the area, or to the local police station where there is none; in Bangkok it goes to the Immigration Division (section 38).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"required-documentation\">Documents requis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tenant-documentation\">Documentation du locataire<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Les locataires \u00e9trangers doivent fournir aux propri\u00e9taires des photocopies de leur passeport, notamment\u00a0:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>page d&#039;informations personnelles<\/li>\n\n<li>Page de visa actuelle<\/li>\n\n<li>dernier timbre d&#039;entr\u00e9e<\/li>\n\n<li>Prolongations pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes (le cas \u00e9ch\u00e9ant)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"landlord-documentation\">Documents du propri\u00e9taire<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Les propri\u00e9taires doivent remplir les documents suivants\u00a0:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Formulaires de demande TM30 remplis<\/li>\n\n<li>Copies de la carte d&#039;identit\u00e9 ou du passeport du propri\u00e9taire<\/li>\n\n<li>copies du livret d&#039;enregistrement des m\u00e9nages<\/li>\n\n<li>copies du contrat de location<\/li>\n\n<li>Documents de propri\u00e9t\u00e9<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"submission-methods\">M\u00e9thodes de soumission<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"online-registration\">Inscription en ligne<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Le <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thailawonline.com\/fr\/glossary\/immigration-bureau\/\">Bureau de l&#039;immigration<\/a>\u2019s TM30 online system streamlines registration for tech-savvy landlords.

Les agents de l'immigration peuvent demander les re\u00e7us du TM30 lors des extensions de visa et d'autres proc\u00e9dures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"penalty-structure\">Structure des sanctions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La p\u00e9nalit\u00e9 est fix\u00e9e par <strong>Article 77<\/strong> of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979).

Lorsque la personne responsable est un <strong>directeur d'h\u00f4tel<\/strong>, l'amende est <strong>de 2 000 \u00e0 10 000 THB<\/strong>. There is no statutory minimum in the first case, so the amount is set within that ceiling. The fine is assessed against whoever owed the notification, which is not the foreign guest as such, but non-compliance can still affect tenants\u2019 immigration procedures and future visa applications.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last reviewed: 25 September 2026.
