fulhamster Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Today I dutifully queued for 30 minutes to get into the building at Jomtien, upon asking for a 90-day ticket I was asked if I had "the photocopies" Now it seems they want a copy of your passport photo and info pages, also a copy of the reporting form that they had stapled into your passport. The photocopy shop was busy !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lelapin Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 The form I have stapled in my passport is from the online report I did last time. Would I need a copy of that. Also how many days after the reporting date is one allowed to be when visiting Jomtien immigration before incurring a fine.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be up to 7 days late that includes the day your report is due without being fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetchy Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Maybe something to do with the whole Immigration website having problems. I went to Jomtien last Friday and to my delight it was queueless. I had to go to the shop next door and get the photocopies you refer to. All told, in and out in 5 minutes. As far as the slip for the date of your next 90 day visit, the IO merely crossed out the relevant dates on my previous (on line) slip and wrote in the new date on the same slip.

davidill Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I was there myself this morning and was told the the computer was down hence the need for photo copies to record visit manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 So no need to complete a TM47, just two photocopies of the passport ID page and the last reporting slip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wuvu2 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 It's a problem with their computer so this scene is temporary - yet somehow they still managed to ding me for late reporting ???? I was due to report in early Feb - during covid lockdown #2 - and while online system wasn't working. I thought/hoped they were being forgiving of visa issues during Covid lockdown. I was wrong about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrec Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Like to see an annual outage report for IM's 90 day reporting system like other Internet service providers offer. Assume it's down now because of security certificate issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem strange, (like so many things here), that the computer system is still 'down'. It's been 'down' for 3 weeks already that I know of!! Does RTP not have a decent IT Dept who should have been able to fix the problem some time ago??!! Ok! Sorry!! Stupid question!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piston broke Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Bloke down our way uses one of them Agents .....

thailand49 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Whatever the real reason as noted it has been like this over a month I though by now it would have been taken care giving them the benefit of the doubt instead of just bashing them to death. I was criticized by an Anal Aussie ( you know who you are )???? giving them the benefit of the doubt since the problem has existed for a while even stupid could fix this problem? Meantime, if you don't want to stand in line, have copy of your picture page passport and your last 90 report slip and sign them. They will gather everything bring it into the office and do it manually and return them to you outside. All they do is cross off your staple 90 slip on your passport and write in a new date. ????

Had to supply photocopies at smaut prakan for several years, nothing to do with computer saying no.

I assumed I'd have time for breakfast at Simple Simon's, but burger me, the IO process was too quick and I made do with a couple pies from Tinnies Gourmet Pie Boutique - Beef, cheese and bacon - 150 ฿, melts in your mouth - yummy.

cnx355 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I am glad that now that Chiang Mai Immigration require only the completed form, your passport and the previous 90 days receipt. They even have a drive-in window for 90 days. . Car and motorcycle accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orchidfan Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Have marriage extension due 26th this month. So after reading the above posts will do the 90days report (usually done online) at the same time even though its scheduled date is April 19th. Ubonjoe, this shouldn't be a problem?

The earliest you can do a 90 day report is 15 days before the report date that includes that day in the count. Best to wait until later since online reporting will hopefully be working by then.

I'll take the papers for the 90 days report anyway as it's no problem to stuff them in with the rest. Then try it on. If they say yes, great, if not I'll try online later or if still not working just go back the their office around the 19th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
