  1. You could presume that the office serving the Kingdom's capital should be more efficient than ours out in the boondocks? I appreciate that there are substantially more "aliens" who use CW but surely it is staffed accordingly. Or am I dreaming?
  2. I'm obviously one of the lucky ones. Submitted 09:50 this morning, approved 14:17 this afternoon. Surin Immigration. 😃😃
  3. I have done that twice in the last 3 years although a number of local expats thought it was risky (or even illegal). I had a passport issued in November 2019 and left it until June 2020 (expiry date of old passport and one year extension) to have the information transferred. Then I had a passport issued in December 2022 and left it until June 2023 to have the data transferred. Immigration (Surin) didn't even comment.
  4. Not for everyone. I still report on-line even though a new Immigration Office is now only 10 minutes drive away (it was over an hour). However, DoHome, Makro, ThaiWatsadu, Big 'C', Lotus's, Robinson's and HomePro are all less than 5 minutes drive.
  5. I would suggest that you don't just rely on an email notification. Check the website also before you leave.
  6. I can't remember what normally happens but I note that the 90 day period resets from the date of application, not the date of approval.
  7. Accepted. However, in my experience with Surin Immigration, when you apply for the extension of stay they update your 90 day report whether you like it or not.
  8. Submitted on-line TM47 on 10th August (10:27), approved today (10:17) - Surin Immigration.
  9. I received a replacement passport (for one that was issued with an error) which I took to Immigration (Surin) to have data transferred at the time I needed to extend my stay (May 2023). Immigration effected a 90 day report at the same time (without being asked) so my next report date is 22nd August 2023. I submitted the TM47 on-line last Thirstday (10th) morning and have only received an acknowledgement to date. As has been reported, the site is currently down.
  10. You will need to visit Immigration in person to have the data transferred to the new passport. Wait until your 90 day report is due (assuming your old passport doesn't expire in the meantime) and kill two birds with one stone.
  11. I had a red stamp back in 2001 from Aranyapratet office (2 days late for a multiple entry border crossing). Next time leaving at the airport I was pulled by Immigration about it and "reprimanded". There was no further penalty but as I was holding two passports at the time I returned back on the other one.
  12. I've always received the "approved" email when my application has been approved within the new system.
  13. A couple of weeks ago when I had my visa/extension information transferred to my replacement passport, Immigration removed the TM6 (2017) from my old passport and stapled it into my replacement passport. I didn't ask why.
  14. I don't carry my passport with me at all times - only when I leave the province overnight. I keep a copy of my passport main pages, latest extension page and latest TM47 receipt behind the sun visor in the truck. For that reason I need to print them out.
  15. Today I received the reminder email from Immigration that my 90 day report will be due on 6th June 2023.
