OP, which immigration office? 

the maesot immigration office.

Hi....  I just tried to do my 90 day report and it was rejected. I had stamp transfered to new passport and i assumed the databased was updated. The reason for rejection is, first time 90 day report has to be done in person. my question is should i have used the old passport number ?  It is a USA passport and the number changes when renewed.      Thank you in advance.

Partly correct. Your re-entry permit protects your original permission to stay so if you are returning to the same address a new TM30 is not required, but when re-entering using a multi-entry visa you get a new permission of stay. When you leave Thailand your current permission of stay is cancelled (unless you have a re-entry permit) so your next entry, even if you have used the visa before, is a new permission of stay and a TM30 will need to be registered. Using the same visa for entry is not the same as using your re-entry permit.

This is exactly what the immi officer told me.

OP, as others have stated she has no issue.

Be aware that with Jetstar sometimes you need to request a senior staff member if there is an issue at check in.

The 6 month rule even for non Thai does not apply for Thailand. 

It's an airline thing. 

In any event she is Thai.  No problem.

 

BTW my thai gf had to renew her pp recently. 

She went to the office that deals with that here in Bangkok.  

The new pp arrived NEXT day ems ...I kid you not. 

The six month rule does not apply to Thailand ?

No offense but if you want to make an immigration officer really angry prove that he is wrong. 

Perhaps have a friendly chat with his boss without accusing anyone.

Just a suggestion. 

Yes... I agree with what your saying. It is better not to make trouble. I will just submit a tm.30 in person for now on everytime .....   it doesn't take up much time.

Thank you for the information.  I will print this and the next time i'm in town I will stop by and show this to them, 

I have an one-year multiple entry Non-O (marriage). After reading here on Asiannow I thought I did not  have to update a tm.30 each time I cross the border every 90 days as long as I am at the same residence.

I went to immigration today and they told me I MUST do a new tm.30 every time., That they have no record of a tm.30 in their database, they said it's a new visa every time I enter for 90 days. I disagreed saying it's the same visa.   Do I not understand how this works?   

So the wife had to pay the 800. baht fine.    Maesot immigration

that would be great if the renewal fee was still 1080.baht.  it is 130. usd now.  also fees are now paid online. usa and international credit or debit cards accepted , before no international cards. No bank drafts are accepted from what i have read.

You can't cross the border into Myanmar.

In my opinion ,the best pizza is at lotus frozen food section.

there is a border crossing in udon thani ? when was that built ?

You use the address you want your old & new passports mailed to. Thai Post will send this envelope to the US Embassy, which will be used to mail to you.

 

Some say, in those threads, I think, that you can buy this "package" at a Thai Post office. Thai Post will mail it to the embassy, but provide you with a receipt which you need to include in your mailer to the Embassy.

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you
