Hi all. Iโ€™m in a long term rental in Chiang Rai and will be traveling to Bangkok next week. Iโ€™m sure the hotel will submit a TM-30. When I return, will I need to submit another TM-30?

TIA

TLDR : Answer Summary
When traveling from your rental in Chiang Rai to a hotel in Bangkok, the hotel will submit a TM-30 form to immigration. However, upon returning to your rental, you will need to submit another TM-30 form to ensure your address registration matches, especially important for visa extensions or 90-day reports. It's advisable to check with your local Thai Immigration office for specific requirements regarding address registrations during travel within Thailand.

Hey everyone, in the near future, I am moving to Thailand. I find a lot of these laws very confusing. Why do you need to submit a TM30 form, if you stay overnight in hotel in general? I feel like, its checking in with a parole officer.

As already suggested, it's best to file another TM30 address registration with your local Thai Immigration office.

While you do, Ask them for their requirements for filing when you are traveling inside Thailand.

Please report back their reply to your question.

Yes almost certainly because your hotel TM30 will be logged with immigration and won't match your rental place when you go to do an extension or even a 90 day report.
