khunerik Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 When you get a new passport at your embassy in Bangkok, is there any way to do 90 day reporting online without first leaving the country? I went to my immigration office in Bangkok and the told me that they connected my new passport with my departure card so I should be able to do it online. But it's not working. I have done it online a couple of years before I got my new passport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotsak Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 From past experience the 90 days online reporting won't work if you get a new passport while in the country because of the passport number mismatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The database only has info for your last entry to the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do a border hop using a re-entry permit to get a new entry. I was advised to do a border hop by immigration back in 2015 if I wanted to do 90 day reports online due to having an entry prior to 2013 and a new passport since then. I have not bothered doing it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the same position after a passport change inside thailand, cannot do online until a re-entry (new TM6). The weird thing is you can still report online using your old passport number etc, but I imagine that would open a can of worms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The local immigration office would not approve the online application if you used your old passport number to do it if you had your stamps transferred there.
