thanks for the informationguys and the reminder of what a tart i was last year i did ok this year so hopefully redeemed myself a little mr bear
i assume that my last 90 day report slip is now defunct and can be removed and continued with the 90 days from the beginning of my new extension ??
No.
You report on the date shown in the 90 day report receipt. Your new extension does not reset the 90 day reporting period. The 90 day report period is only reset if you leave the country and starts when you re-enter Thailand. The date you enter is day 1.

I'm not so sure on that one, as for the last few years the 90day  has just rolled on its up to you to make sure they align when you do your yearly extension.

nookie is pretty much correct on this. 90 day report and renewal are two separate things and its up to you to coordinate them. That said some immigration office have been known to to sink them at  renewal time. Remember KCI lets you apply for a renewal of your marriage extension up to 45 days before it expires.

So you should try to do your renewal one or two days before the 90 day stamp indicates? interesting.

90 day reporting you have a window of 15 days before to 7 days after to report so that gives you an added window.

true not, i don't know.


Police Colonel Rutjapong Saravanangkool said officials had mooted plans that would allow foreigners to use a keycard or something similar when checking in at convenience stores. He would push this idea over the next year and hoped to make it a reality, he added.

He was speaking at a meeting organised by the Chiang Mai Expats Club at Le Meridien hotel this morning. A panel of immigration officers answered questions about the new visa rules that came into effect at the end of August. The new rules focus on retirement visas and 90 day check-in protocols.

Retirement O-A visas

Visas are still valid for a maximum of one year and are restricted to people aged 50 and over. Police Colonel Rutjapong hinted at an attempt to extend the maximum retirement visa length to three or five years, but this is still uncertain.

Applicants must have an income of 65,000 baht per month or have more than 800,000 baht in a single bank account over three months prior to application.

Joint bank accounts are no longer accepted. Retirement visas are now issued solely on an individual basis, and the earnings or other assets of a spouse or family member cannot be taken into account. Health certificates no more than six months old are required upon application.

Retirees can receive a one-year stamp while dependents receive three months that must then be extended at the Immigration office. Children are considered dependents up to the age of 20, or older if they have disabilities.


The panel also listed some key points in the new regulations:

1. If a change in the reason for residency occurs, the original permit is invalidated immediately. People on retirement visas are not allowed to work or volunteer, as these require a work permit issued on a business visa.

2. If the retiree dies, any dependents must immediately leave the country and apply for a personal visa such as a retirement or business visa.

3. Re-entry permits are still available, at a cost of 1,000 baht for single entry and 3,800 baht for multiple entry.

90-day check-ins

All foreigners in Thailand must check-in with Immigration every 90 days. They can do so in person at the Immigration office, or submit the forms by registered mail or via a third party. Police Colonel Rutjapong said the Chiang Mai Immigration office is almost at capacity, and encouraged people not to report there in person if possible.

Changing visa status

Under the new rules, changing one's visa status – for example, from a tourist visa to a retirement visa – can no longer be done in one day. The process will now take up to 21 days.


Immigration officers encourage people who wish to change their visas to apply as soon as possible. If someone enters the country on a 30-day tourist visa, for example, they should apply for a new visa within nine days to ensure they can remain in the country legally.

'Life certificates'

Police Colonel Rutjapong also said that Thai immigration authorities can no longer issue 'Life Certificates' for foreigners to use when applying for pensions. Any foreigner who requires one must now visit their respective embassy.

Looks like CNX Immigration may have joined Pattaya and Phuket as a NO GO Zone.

90 day reporting now available at all 7-Eleven outlets in Thailand



BANGKOK:-- A spokesperson for the Immigration Bureau has announced that from today, foreigners will be able to complete their 90 day report at any 7-Eleven outlet in Thailand.
 
This follows the recent announcement from Immigration that foreigners can also now complete their 90 day report online.
 
Speaking at the launch event held at the immigration offices in Chaengwattana, Bangkok, Immigration chief Pol Col Somchai Wittiporn said: “this new service is being launched in preparation to Thailand’s integration with the ASEAN community”.
 
“We also want to make it easier for the aliens who stay in Thailand for a long time”.
 
“We know that many foreigners like to buy their cheap beer and bread and also collect the stamps from 7-Eleven, so it was our idea that they can also do their 90 day reporting when they visit their favourite store”.
 
Pol Col Somchai explained that in order to complete their 90 day report at 7-Eleven, foreigners will need to hand their passport, 4 passport photos and the TM47 form to 7-Eleven staff who will then scan the relevant information into the new system.
 
Pol Col Somchai also confirmed that due to some minor technical issues 7-Eleven staff are currently unable to issue a confirmation receipt for any 90 day report completed in store.
 
However, whilst the problem is being rectified and as a gesture of goodwill, Pol Col Somchai has instructed staff to issue any foreigner who completes their day 90 report at 7-Eleven during the month of April with twenty complimentary 7-Eleven stamps courtesy of the Immigration Bureau.

Scroll down on the Visa Forum, you'll find a thread about on-line reporting.   Because not only should you start trying to do the on-line 14 days before, as I think I understand it if you get within 6 days (maybe 7) they will not accept on-line, you will have to do in person.

I have an O-A Visa and first entered Thailand on 29/5/2018, but due to the number of times I have been in and out of the country, next month will be the first time I have had to do a 90 day report. I have had to go to Immigration three times, once to have my new passport sorted out, transfer stamps and twice to get Proof of Address letters, so all my details would be in the system. All of my TM30 reports have been done on line as well. My question, can the first 90 day report be done onine, or does it have to be done in person.

Your recent posts show that you are changing address. I believe you will need to report to Buriram immigration in person for your first report.

You need to go there for a TM30 anyway so you could check while you are there.

Thanks Starman, but my 90 day report is due before I relocate permanently to Satuk.

In regard to the TM30, my Thai Wife has already registered on line and recieved her User Name and Password. We submitted a TM30 report on line last week when we arrived in Satuk for a short visit.
