Line for 90 day at new location, near Airport.

[SamSanuk]

Just curious since I usually had no trouble at Promenanda. Showed up around 7am and usually got out during the morning.

 

If others have tried the new place, would you please give me an idea of “show up” time? 7 am too late?

 

Thanks much, Sam

[namatjira]

Sam, 

you can do it by mail, no need to even go there.

works like clockwork....once you have done it once you will never look back, except perhaps to wonder why everyone doesn’t do it by this method......

Second that !
If more post, less will que, leaving shorter lines for those who "need" to conduct their business, without post being an option...………...

Online, even easier, you don't even have to leave the house.

Yes, I’ve tried it once on my iPad, then a friends computer. Couldn’t get past the first page. Told me to contact Immigration. I’m not giving up, but gosh, wish it was easier to do. 

 

So....might have to take the usual route.

Should be easy to roll up currently with BJ on the case alternatively mail in or go across the road to the agent and they will be happy to it for you - for a consideration!

On mailing, my date is Nov 12th. Is it too late if I send something in on Oct 31st? I read 15 days is needed, but the writing is vague on that matter.

Send between 15  to 7 days before due date so in time. Register out  (So you can check receipt at immigration -  http://track.thailandpost.co.th/tracking/default.aspx?lang=en ) about 18 baht. 

 

SAE with 3 baht return stamp is all you need.

I had the same problem as you but it's because the software is inflexible.

 

If you type something wrongly or key in an extra space or two, it won't accept.

 

I tried several times and it went through to second page after correcting the errors on first page.

 

Make sure you type everything correctly.

Why would you need to leave the house to do it by post?

Even more so like a Farmer!  A man out standing in his field! ????

[amexpat]

For those who can't work out how to do it online there is the post (mail) option.

 

Fot those who can't work out how to do it by mail, there is the in-person stand in line, clog up the queue option.

 

For those who can't work out the online, post, or clog up the queue option, there are agents. 

 

For those who can't work out any of the above, leave the country every three months before the 90 days is due. 

 

Anyone else, hide in the mountains or rice fields of Issan.

You are welcome.

I got my approval from online reporting today. It's easy once you figure out how to do it.

 

The problem with the system is that it is unforgiving to typo errors, wrong dates or putting an extra space. Eg. when I put my flight number as PK 999, it won't accept but when I removed the space PK999, it went through. 

 

Once we figure out how to put what info in each field, then it's better than wasting money to mail or go there personally.

Me too.  Once I put O instead of zero in my flight number.  But someone on this forum pointed out it is not a required field.

Maybe just enter data in the *fields.

It may be helpful to those reading this thread if someone could point to a post or pages detailing how to do 90 day reports online and by mail.

Twice, now, I've opted for reporting online.  Both times I'd been unable to print my receipt after my report had been approved.  So I still had to show up at immigration with a screen print in hand.  No waiting was necessary other than a very brief time for the clerk to finish with the person at her desk.  A receipt was quickly printed and initialed, and I was on my way again.

 

I'll continue to use the online method, hoping that one of these times I'll be able to print my receipt.

That defeats the purpose of doing online.

 

I had no problem printing my receipt.

 

1. Key in reference number

2. Click on 'View' button

3. Click on 'The Next Appointment (Print)' button

4. Click on 'Print' on top right corner of screen.

When you get to the page that says "APPROVED". look at the bottom of the page and you will see "The Next Appointment (Print)" ... click on that to get a .pdf of the receipt to put in your passport - It also tells you the next appointment date...

LOL, I buy enough stamps to last a year (or more) once a year and never have to go to the Post to send the 90-day. You can get your rong tabilen stickers too.

I send mine in with only three or four days to go because otherwise you are losing too many days of your 90 each time.  Never had a problem in several years.

Good for you but with the new broom upsetting the routine at Chiangmai immigration the staff may be somewhat pissed and rigidly enforce their rules.

If you are just starting to use the mail in the letter should arrive between 15-7 days of due date,stick with that and it should run smoothly. Better still, regularly try online, more and more people seem to be able to do it.
