They should focus on motorists <deleted> of waiting for traffic lights to turn green.

No worries, Tourism minister will come up will another magic number tomorrow for lottery.

Instead of making daily statements asking for sympathy why not close down this ministry and transfer them to the public works or education ministry to solve the local issues instead of begging for international tourists.

Hopefully foreigners are SMART enough not to fall into this trap.

As I wrote before I have no answer to that question. 

Best to do it this week. I think it would be best to in person if they consider it late but waive the fine they could insist it has to be done in person.

I went this morning to Muang Thong Thani. I was supposed to report again in June, but they locked down immigration. I wasn't fined. I'd go asap this week.  

Thanks both of you. I will try to get there to do it myself.

Just to confirm the place is still Muang Thong Thani, not CW ?

No

 

No fine can be charged for late reporting that was due before between March 26 and October 26th.

You still will need to do your report in person. You should of done it as soon as you got the reply.

Does that mean i'm safe as long as I do the report by 26th Oct? I plan to get a messenger to do it, do I need to prepare a LOA for him to do the report on my behalf?

Could anyone confirm the 90 day report amnesty is also extended until end of Oct?

I sent mine via mail end of Aug but got a reply asking me to do it in person and pay 2000B fine?

My Non O extension is due early Nov so if 90 day report is also extended, I would just skip it. 

Or anyone could confirm if I can escape the 2k B fine if I do it within this week.

Mine took about a month.  I guess if you have proof of ems tracking that you have sent, that would be fine.

Not sure what is your computer specifications but if you are running Windows 7 or newer, the driver should auto install and you dont need to install any softwares. Most wifi adapters nowdays are plug and play.

For those who had paid 1,900THB, dont expect any refund as the Imm is short of funds due to 0 income for arrival visas.

Also, I expect a lot more last minute flip flops to squeeze out foreigners stuck here.

Tomorrow the 26th is the last day but they should not fine you if you do it within the 7 days allowed under the existing rules.

Ok, so I presume I can do it within 3 Oct. Could they still fine me if I failed to do my previous 90 day before end of March? 

I still dont understand why they still need this to be done in person.

You can do it yourself or have somebody do it for you. They would need your passport and TM47 form signed by you.

Is the amnesty period still on or already over?

I purposely sent it end of last month but just only got the reply today.

I dont see any point to send someone or go in person if the amnesty period is already over since I still need to pay the fine. 

Online report never worked for me all these while.

That was before the ministerial notice (aka amnesty) was extended to September 26th.

Bangkok immigration was refusing mailed in reports with a note they had to be done in person.

Ok so I need to get someone to do it on my behalf and bring my passport along?

What they wrote is wrong, the person who wrote it just has no idea what they are doing. The Cabinet said no 90 day reports required until 26th, see the last section (3) of this document: http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2563/E/172/T_0005.PDF

If somebody tries to fine you (in case you do it until tomorrow), refuse it and show them this document. If they still have problems, tell them to call Prayut, he is the one who signed the document ????

 

Chiang Mai immigration confirmed that they grant this 7 day window, so there this is possible. But at other immigration offices people might run into problems insisting on this 7 day window.

Thanks. I guess they are short of funds due to drying revenues from tourists so trying whatever they can with us...

90 report for those that skipped during amnesty due 27. 

You have a window of 7 days so early next week is good idea and no fine

I did not do any 90 day report since end of March and just sent by registered end of August but they asked me to pay 2k B fine now.

Actually they wrote somewhere that if you skipped a 90 day report, the next one would have to be done in person.

 

You could go there in person today (or tomorrow if they are open), then you don't have to pay a fine, because everybody is exempt from 90 day reports until 26th.

They wrote in my application letter that I did not do the report between 26 march and 31 july, so I need to pay 2k B fine. I'm foreigner but not foreigner in their perspective. ????

Anyway my time is worth much more than 2k so I wont be wasting time for this.

I sent my 90 day report end of Aug to CW and just got reply letter mentioning that I did not do 90 day report from 26 march to 31 july during the amnesty period and they requested me to contact imm office to pay fine 2k B.

I'm on Non O family visa now. So only tourists visa holders are exempted for the 90 day report during the amnesty period or that includes all non immigrant visa holders.

The online report never worked for me and I travelled regularly in the past so I never bothered to do this all these while.

My visa renewal is up next month, should I try my luck without paying the 2k B fine?

From the pics, looks like its the Altis 2 generations back. Most probably the needle was stuck at max 240km/h.

Only the 2,000cc model is capable of doing over 200km/h stock, most are 1,600 or 1,800 out there.

Its suicide over the curves with a C seg Japanese car. The thin tires would not make it.

As usual, only talk no action. 

They are really desperate for inbound tourists lol!
