TM30 is the notification a property owner files when a foreigner stays overnight at their address. The duty comes from Section 38 of the Thai Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979)<\/strong> and falls on the owner, landlord or possessor of the dwelling, not on the foreign guest. Immigration offices routinely ask to see the TM30 receipt when a foreigner applies for a visa extension, a work permit or a \u0e23\u0e32\u0e22\u0e07\u0e32\u0e19 90 \u0e27\u0e31\u0e19<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The obligation is set by Section 38 of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979). For how the requirement was enforced, relaxed and amended between 2018 and 2020, see our detailed account of the TM30 history and regulation developments<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Property owners, landlords, and hosts bear legal responsibility for TM30 reporting. The requirement applies to all foreign nationals regardless of visa type or stay duration. Failure to comply results in fines for property owners, not foreign tenants.<\/p>\n

TM30 registration must occur within 24 hours of a foreigner’s arrival at the property. This applies to new arrivals and returning residents after travel abroad.<\/p>\n

      TM30 enforcement varies by location and circumstances. Bangkok and major tourist areas typically enforce more strictly than rural provinces. Immigration officers may request TM30 receipts during visa extensions and other procedures.<\/p>\n

A house master, owner or possessor of a dwelling who fails to comply with Section 38 is liable to a fine of not more than 2,000 THB<\/strong>. Where the person responsible is a hotel manager<\/strong>, the fine is from 2,000 to 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, not against the foreign tenant, but non-compliance can still affect tenants’ immigration procedures and future visa applications.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
