Just a quick question: Can the Immigration desk at the Bumrungrad Hospital be used for 90-day reporting, or is it mainly meant for emergency visas, extensions, etc? I have a non-immigrant O visa and am due to report for my 90-day stamp in July. As I am currently a regular at the hospital anyway (pre-natal) I was wondering if I could make use of their service and save myself and my husband the trip to the immigration office. Does anyone know?

Why not pop in ask them.

Why not pop in ask them.

I know, I know... Will do that next time I'm there - just thought someone here might know and I could find out before my next appointment.

FYI

Still better to drop by and check.

Bumrungrad opens visa-extension centre ( Bangkok Post 2005-08-18)

BANGKOK: -- Bumrungrad Hospital, in co-operation with the Immigration Bureau, opened yesterday a visa-extension centre at its facility, the first to be based at a Bangkok hospital, to better meet the need of its foreign patients whose number is expected to surge to 400,000 this year.

``We've seen 100-150 international patients every month who need to extend their visas for longer stay in Thailand. Established in co-operation with the Immigration Bureau, the centre offers real benefits and conveniences not only to our patients but also to their family members,'' said Mack Banner, chief executive of Bumrungrad International, the operator of Bumrungrad Hospital.
