DickThrust Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hi, I have registered with the app and my email address has been confirmed. Now I have been informed that they will send me a password and user name. I am still waiting, any idea how long it takes to receive them and what do I do if the information is not sent?

mtls2005 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 There have been reports of two hours, two days, two weeks, two months and never. I think there are some dependencies based on location. Personally, having been involved in four (4) separate registrations in Bangkok, the range was six days up to six weeks. Some recommend contacting your local serving Immigraiton office, and/or the contact number on the primary page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinL Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Mine took 10 working days, Khon Kaen Immigration in June. As usual, different immigration offices, different response times - I've read on here of waits of as little as a couple of days or still no response some weeks later.

Digitalbanana Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Mine took 6 weeks in Bangkok, and then only when/because(?) I did a 90 day report on the same day the TM30 password was issued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DickThrust Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Well I guess I shouldn't be surprised but having registered on the app and having my e mail address confirmed, one week on, no password or username supplied. Tried phoning helpline and local immigration, no one is picking up. Guess I'll have to drive 70 km to immigration after every out of province trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HampiK Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I registered in Bangkok, about 2 months ago and nothing yet. Someone told (wrote) if Bangkok you have to go there in person to receive a password... not sure this is true. But it seems Bangkok is very slow now or not give the Information online anymore... I will wait about 1 more month... then look if want go Chaeng Wattana in person. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkidlad Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I just applied for mine today. Do they send an email confirming your information is being processed or do you just have to wait and see if they send you a username and password? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DickThrust Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 You should get an email - almost immediately in my case asking you to confirm your email address. Upon confirming, you get a pop up that says a password and username will be sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I have been informed that they will send me a password and user name. I am still waiting, any idea how long it takes to receive them and what do I do if the information is not sent?My guess is that depends in which province you are, I'm in Phuket and it took 3 days.

I need to do my 1 year extension early August so will enquire at Chaeng Wattana then if still nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singhajim Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 It was 2 to 3 weeks before the rush, my guess is 2 to 3 months now. I also do my yearly extension in early August, intend to present my fine receipt and copy of my email address verification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell a lie - it says a verification link has been sent to my account. I can't find it in any of my email folders.

Tbone999 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I must be lucky, applied on Sunday evening, got my password on Monday morning. Still had to go to Immigration though as I arrived Saturday and it wouldn't let me register as it was over 24hrs....last time though. Less I have to go there the better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouse123 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 2 months not here. Called the hotline today listed on the webpage,and true to form, nobody picked up. We phoned on the mobile number of Police immigration in Kalasin, he [picked up and is out of office. He says he is aware of the problem and suggests we call back tomorrow when he is in the office.

captpkapoor Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I also received the email confirmation almost immediately, but no user name or password yet after over a month. I id get an email from them asking me to submit my wife's passport too, as she is co-owner on our condo, which I did. I've had Thai friends at my condo call up the nr on the website, to check for me, no use. Now, when I go on the Login page, there is an option to "check status", where you enter the passport nr and email ID. It says "Not Approved". So, God knows. I think I have to personally go to CW and maybe they can give me a user ID and password. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkdriller Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I registered a condo in Bangkok and one in Cha-am (Petchaburi), both more than two months ago. In both cases received the e-mail confirmation immediately. Petchaburi responded with login and password with a few hrs. Still waiting for Bangkok (CW) immigration login and password, now more than 2 month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure it says not approved or ' waiting for approval ' ??? That is what mine has been saying for the last 2 months now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less I have to go there the better You can use the default (current/today's) date, regardless of "arrival" date. There should be zero repurcussions, for a "late" filing, which may or may not include a weekend/holiday, IME. We use the spreadsheet upload option - pre-filled with everyone's info, just needing the TM6 number. No field for "arrival date". If using the mobile app, your only "Check-in Date" option is yesterday or today; just use today. For "Date of Arrival" use today's (filing date) if you can't choose a prior date.
