Perhaps there is a solution after driving only one times in person to the immigration office. Just have a look at this topic: "90 Days Online" is working for me again

Please don't ask why or how, because I can't explain it, but after my "90 Days Online Report" was rejected three months ago with the inexplicable reason ("...Incorrect entry date upon entry into the kingdom/ Incorrect visa expiration date"), and I had to report it manually on site, it worked again yesterday. I had already prepared myself to have to drive to Jomtien again, because the usual email reminding me of the upcoming report didn't arrive this time. Nevertheless, I thought to myself: just give it a try. So I logged in 15 days before the appointment and submitted my report. The confirmation of receipt came as usual shortly afterwards and one day later the approved confirmation with the receipt for the passport actually came. 😊🙏

The only problem I have with this actually very interesting suggestion is the thought of having to give away my passport... into the hands of people I don't know. But it's probably just a very personal problem for people like me who are naturally rather suspicious. I'll have to think about it. Regardless: Thank you for the recommendation. 🙏

200 Baht is no big deal, of course. Which visa agency is that? And how does the service work? I assume you drive there, hand over your passport and the necessary copies so that someone from the agency can drive to Jomtien and get the 90 Days Report stamped. When it's done, you get notified and pick up your passport again... right?

Thank you for the very helpful translation. 👍 Should the note "Department 90 Days Report" be added to the address block under Jomtien Immigration Office so that it appears as proof on the registered letter receipt?

As my upcoming "90 Days Report" probably won't work online again, I'm already working on plan B and prepare an envelope with documents to do the whole thing by post for the first time (...there is a small thai-post-office in the Soi Siam Country Club). When I was looking for the official postal address of immigration in Jomtien, I discovered that there were two addresses circulating online: 🤔😬 Chonburi (Pattaya) Immigration Soi 5 Moo 12 Jomtien Beach Road Nongprue, Banglamung Chonburi 20150 and Chonburi Immigration Pattaya 75/265 Moo 12 Nongprue Banglamung Chonburi 20150 Has anyone had experience with sending documents to immigration in Jomtien and can tell me which address is the right one? Thanks in advance.

That explains a lot: My penultimate "90-Days-Notification" in January still worked without any problems because it was a month and a half BEFORE the update. My last "90-Days-Notification" in April stopped working because it was a month and a half AFTER the update. Conclusion: the update has obviously made a well-functioning system unusable for a large proportion of users.

Thank you for the helpful recommendations. 😊🙏

I have made my decision: If I receive another request for “90-Days-Online-Notification” in mid-July, I will try online again. If it fails again, I will try a second time. If it even doesn't work on the second try, “90-Days-Online" is finished for me. I will then switch to sending the documents via “ThailandPost” instead of driving to Jomtien again and looking for solutions that don’t exist.

You mean mailing with ThailandPost? Didn't even know that was possible. 😲 Definitely sounds very interesting, especially since I have a small post office in the neighborhood. 😊👍 Which documents need to be sent and which form of delivery do you choose? (registered mail?)

For affected foreigners who do not live within an acceptable distance of the responsible immigration office and have to travel long distances for each of the completely unnecessary 90-Days-Reports, it is probably important to know why the system does not work for them anymore and whether it will work again soon.

If that were the case, then it could also be justified as an “additional security check” and no one would have to worry that the system would no longer work.

I drove to immigration in Jomtien on last Wednesday to clarify the problem on site. However, at the "90-day desk" I was only informed that they couldn't help me and that I would probably have to come back for every report.

I was absolutely serious about the good relationships. I can still remember that ASEAN NOW used to ask some immigration officers for the forum-users about confusing topics (...increasing bank deposits and health insurance), which I found to be very helpful.

To be honest, I wonder whether "ASEAN NOW" can't use its good relations with the immigration authorities to point out the "90 Days Online" problem or. the dubious, unfounded rejections of applications after correct reporting ("Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected. Incorrect entry date upon entry into the kingdom/Incorrect visa expiration date."). After all, it is now being discussed in three topics and there seem to be dozens of forum users who are affected. I only ask because it is next to impossible for individual applicants to find a solution to the problem. For example, I tried to explain the problem to immigration and was immediately turned away on the grounds that they couldn't help me and that I should report from now on by visiting instead of online.
