Thailand 90-day report + TM.30 checklist for Myanmar workers (2026)
Thailand 90-day report + TM.30 checklist for Myanmar workers — deadlines, online TM.47, landlord duty. Verify Immigration.
Two different Immigration duties often get mixed up. This is a practical checklist for Myanmar workers and families in Thailand — not legal advice. Rules and fees can change; always re-check the official Immigration Bureau pages linked below before you go or pay anyone.
| Form | Who files? | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| 90-day report (TM.47) | You (the foreigner) — or someone you authorise / registered mail / online | Tell Immigration you are still staying, every 90 days |
| TM.30 | Landlord / house owner / hotel manager / employer dorm (not usually the worker alone) | Notify Immigration that a foreigner is living at that address — within 24 hours of arrival |
They are not a visa extension and not a work-permit renewal. Pair this with the e-WorkPermit renewals checklist when your permit window is open.
Part A — 90-day report (รายงานตัว 90 วัน / TM.47)
Who must report: Foreigners allowed to stay temporarily who stay over 90 days must notify Immigration every 90 days (Immigration Act B.E. 2522, section 37(5) — as stated on the Bureau site).
When (window on the official pages):
- You may notify from 15 days before the due date
- Or up to 7 days after the due date
- Late / missed: go in person; official pages state a fine of 2,000 THB if you report late yourself, or 5,000 THB if you are arrested without having reported
- Leaving Thailand and re-entering restarts the 90-day count from the latest entry
Ways to file (pick one):
- In person at the Immigration office for where you live
- Authorise someone else to file for you
- Registered mail (send early — official guidance says at least 15 days before due date)
- Online (TM.47 internet service)
Online (high level):
- Open Immigration’s Online Service for over-90-day notification (entry from immigration.go.th → Online Service / Over 90 day)
- Register with email + English name + phone; password is emailed
- Log in → New Application (TM.47) → fill required fields → Submit (status starts as Pending)
- Officer review: result emailed within about 3 working days; download the receipt when approved
- System may email a reminder ~15 days before the next due date
Online does not work if you changed to a new passport — file in person (or via authorised person) first at the Immigration office for your residence; later cycles can go online again.
Documents commonly listed for in-person / mail:
- Passport
- TM.6 departure card (if you still have one)
- Previous 90-day receipt (if any)
- Completed, signed TM.47 form
- For mail: copies of passport bio + last entry / stay stamp + stamped return envelope (check current stamp amount on the live Immigration page)
Where (examples from Immigration):
- Bangkok: 90 Days Report Section, Government Complex Building B (Chaeng Wattana / Lak Si) — or the Immigration Service Center for Myanmar / Lao / Cambodian legalised labour in Bangkok if you qualify
- Provinces: local Immigration office for your residence area
Remember: A 90-day stamp/receipt is not a new visa.
Part B — TM.30 (แจ้งที่พักอาศัย)
Who files: House owner, head of household, landlord, or hotel/apartment manager who accommodates a foreigner (Immigration Act section 38 — as stated on the TM.30 guide). Deadline: within 24 hours of the foreigner arriving at that address.
What workers should do (practical):
- When you move into a new room / dorm / apartment, ask the landlord or HR the same day: “Has TM.30 been filed for me?”
- Keep a photo / copy of the TM.30 receipt (or online confirmation). You often need proof of address for visa / work-permit / bank steps.
- If your employer houses you in a factory dorm, HR usually files — still ask for the receipt.
- Online TM.30 is for landlords / hosts registering on the official system: tm30.immigration.go.th (register → add address → notify stay). Helpdesk email listed on the register guide:
resident.helpdesk@police.go.th· Call Center 1178 (office hours).
Workers rarely file TM.30 alone; if a stranger asks you to pay a large “TM.30 agent fee,” stop and check with Immigration or your employer.
Worker checklist this week
- Find your next 90-day due date (last receipt / passport stamp / email reminder).
- If due within 15 days, prepare passport + prior receipt; try online TM.47 unless you just got a new passport.
- Confirm with landlord/HR that TM.30 matches your current address; re-notify when you move.
- Screenshot / photograph every receipt.
- Do not confuse 90-day / TM.30 with work-permit or visa extension — see the e-WorkPermit how-to.
