How it works
From a passport photo to a filed TM30 in four steps. Your part takes about ten seconds. If your residence isn't registered on the portal yet, we register it with the Immigration Bureau first: you only upload the documents.
Step 1
Send us the passport
Take a photo of your guest's passport and upload it on the website. On Pro you can send it to our Telegram bot instead.
Step 2
Our AI reads it
We read the name, nationality, passport number and dates from the photo, so there's nothing to type.
Step 3
We file the TM30
We submit the form for you on the Immigration Bureau's portal, under your residence's account. When the portal is slow or down, we keep trying until the notification is accepted.
Step 4
You're done
You get a confirmation with exactly what Immigration received. On Pro you can print it from your dashboard whenever you need it.
Your dashboard
It shows every guest and the state of their TM30, keeps the confirmations and lets you add the next guest from any device.
Every guest of every residence in one list with the current state of the TM30: in queue, submitted, or waiting for the Immigration website to come back. Thai citizens need no TM30: we skip them.
For each filed form we keep the confirmation with exactly what Immigration received. On Pro you can print it any time: immigration offices may ask for it at visa extensions and residence certificates.
On Pro you can work from a chat: send the passport photo to our Telegram bot and get the confirmation back in the same chat.

Frequently asked questions
More about the form, deadlines and who has to file: TM30 explained. If your question isn't here, contact us.
What is TM30?
What is TM30?
TM30 is the notification a host files with Thai immigration when a foreigner stays at their property. Section 38 of the Immigration Act requires it within 24 hours of the foreigner's arrival. It can be filed online, on the Immigration Bureau's portal, or on paper at the local immigration office. TM30 explained.
Who has to file TM30?
Who has to file TM30?
The host, not the guest: the householder, the owner or the possessor of the place, or the hotel manager. If you rent out a condo, run a guest house or take short-term guests, the notification is yours. Who files in each case.
How long do I have to file?
How long do I have to file?
24 hours from the foreigner's arrival at your place. The online portal refuses a check-in date older than that. The deadline in detail.
What is the fine for not filing TM30?
What is the fine for not filing TM30?
Section 77 of the Immigration Act sets it: up to 2,000 baht for a householder, owner or possessor, and 2,000 to 10,000 baht for a hotel manager. The amounts reported in practice for a late notification run from 800 to 2,000 baht. TM30 fines.
If I am a tourist, do I have to fill out a TM30 form?
If I am a tourist, do I have to fill out a TM30 form?
No. A guest doesn't file TM30: the place where you stay does. An immigration office may ask you for the TM30 receipt when you extend your stay, so ask your host for it. If your landlord won't file, see what a tenant can do.
I own the property. Do I file TM30 myself?
I own the property. Do I file TM30 myself?
Yes. The owner, or whoever holds the place, files for every foreigner who stays there, tenants and guests alike. You can also authorize somebody to do it for you: an agent, a manager, or a service like TM30.io. To file online, the residence has to be registered on the Immigration Bureau's website first: we can do it for you, or you can follow our step-by-step guide.
Do I file again when the same guest comes back?
Do I file again when the same guest comes back?
One notification covers the whole stay. If the foreigner leaves for a while and comes back to the same place within the period of stay you notified, you don't have to notify again. A new stay, or a move to another address, is a new notification. Filing again after a trip or a visa extension.
Is TM30 still required in 2026?
Is TM30 still required in 2026?
Yes. Section 38 hasn't changed since 1979. The practice around it has: since June 2020 a guest who returns within the notified period isn't notified again, and since September 2023 online filing runs on a new portal, where every user had to register again. A bill before Parliament would keep the host's 24-hour duty; it isn't law yet. Is the law changing in 2026?
Where is the official TM30 online portal and its login?
Where is the official TM30 online portal and its login?
The Immigration Bureau's portal is tm30.immigration.go.th, "Notification of Residence for Foreigners". You log in with the email and the password of your own portal account; a new user registers there first. With TM30.io you don't log in to the portal: we file TM30 for you. Open the official portal, or see what to do when you can't log in.
How do I register for TM30 online?
How do I register for TM30 online?
Register on the Immigration Bureau's portal: first a user account, then the address of your residence, which has to show "Approved" before you can file. Or upload the owner's documents to TM30.io and we register the residence for you. The registration, screen by screen.
Can I do my own TM30 online?
Can I do my own TM30 online?
Yes. A host registers on the portal once and then files each guest in a short web form. A tenant can do it too, with the landlord's letter of authorization and documents. How to file on the portal; for tenants, doing TM30 yourself.
Where do I get the TM30 form?
Where do I get the TM30 form?
The paper form is needed only when you notify at an immigration office or by mail. Online there is nothing to print. The official form as a PDF, with a filled sample.
How can TM30.io help me?
How can TM30.io help me?
If your residence isn't registered yet, we register it with the Immigration Bureau: you upload the owner's passport or Thai ID card and the house registration book (blue book). If you already have an account on the Immigration Bureau portal, you can connect it instead. After that, you photograph each guest's passport; our system reads it and files the TM30 notification with the Immigration Bureau for you, retrying if their website is down. You get a confirmation for every guest; on Pro you can print it and use a Telegram bot at your front desk. There is also an API for your property management software.
