Hi I'm on a 1year extension to my marriage visa and due to report after the first 90 days. I live near Sawankhalok, Sukhothai and for my visa runs went to Mae Sot. Can anyone tell me if this is still my nearest Immigration Office to report to or are there other options.

If anyone can advise I'd be grateful. Holidaybob

Is Mae Sot in Sukothai province? Each province should have it's own office - usuallt in the provincial capital.

No Mae Sot is in Tak, Its about 190 km from Sawankhalok To Mae Sot.

I did mine by post to Bangkok (it is nearly 400 km from where I live) and it cost me less than 20 baht plus a visit to the post office. It took about 3 weeks.

Its 400km + to Bangkok from here so posting seem a good Idea. You say it took about 3 weeks so how long before the 90 days were up did you send it.

In their guide lines they state your posted report should be registered (EMS). A smart move only costs 32 Baht and you have proof that you sent the documents. Takes less than a week to receive the 90 day report receipt from Nong Khai Immigration.

It was due about December 12th and I sent it off on December 4th, but the delay was due to the amount of holidays in December. I usually send it about 10 days before the expiry date along with the information supplied by lopburi 3 and bdenner.

My next one is due 11th March so I will send it to Suan Phlu on 2 or 3 March so that it arrives during the week before the expiry.

From bdenner post

In their guide lines they state your posted report should be registered (EMS). A smart move only costs 32 Baht and you have proof that you sent the documents.

bdenner is correct it is just that I couldn't remember the price but I knew it was not much. 32 baht for the EMS and 6 baht for the return postage.

Because it was taking a while I called the office on all of the numbers and eventually got an answer from one of the ladies who checked and gave me the number of the entry in I suppose the record book.
