| What immigration wants | What the lease must do |
|---|---|
| Proof of current address | Name the tenant, the unit and a term that covers the period |
| TM30 on file | The landlord — not you — must file it |
| A term that fits the stay | Standard Bangkok leases are 12 months; the entry is 180 days |
| Re-filing after a move | A new address restarts the landlord's obligation |

Not immigration or legal advice. This page explains what a landlord and a lease need to do. For the application itself, use a licensed agent or the official channels. We rent condos — that is the part we know.
