TM30 residence notification for landlords and house owners
Landlords, house owners and accommodation managers must notify Immigration within 24 hours when a foreigner stays. A missing TM30 often blocks visa extensions and 90-day reports — we register, file and fix late notifications.
What TM30 is
TM30 is the notification that tells Immigration where a foreign national is staying. The duty sits with the owner or manager of the accommodation, yet the foreigner usually feels the consequences: Immigration officers commonly ask for the TM30 receipt before approving an extension of stay or a 90-day report.

Frequently asked questions
Who is responsible for filing TM30?
The house owner, landlord, hotel or accommodation manager — not the foreign tenant. In practice many foreigners end up chasing it themselves because Immigration asks for the TM30 receipt when they extend a visa or file a 90-day report.
How soon must TM30 be filed?
Within 24 hours of the foreigner starting to stay at the address. Some local immigration offices also expect a new notification after the foreigner returns from abroad, so we confirm the practice of your local office.
What happens if TM30 was never filed?
The owner may be fined at the rate set by law, and the foreigner's extension or 90-day report can be delayed until a receipt is produced. We help file late notifications and prepare the explanation the local office asks for.
Can TM30 be filed online?
Yes. Owners can register for the Immigration Bureau's online notification system and file there. Registration needs the owner's ID, house registration or title deed and, for agents, a power of attorney.
Do condo buildings file TM30 for all residents?
Many juristic persons and building managers file on behalf of owners, but it varies by building. If yours does not, the unit owner or landlord must file. We can handle filing for multiple tenants.
How much does it cost?
Our service fee is quoted per case. Any fine for late notification is paid at the official rate set by the authorities.
