Popular Post StevieAus Posted May 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 8, 2021 On 5/3/2021 at 9:52 AM, kingofthemountain said: Do you really think the criminals bother to do their 90 days reporting? How many criminals have been arrested so far because of the 90 days reporting? Honestly i am speechless seeing 40% are happy to be treated like criminals i presume a lot of people have been abused in different ways all their life long, so they are used to it and at the end they love it “Treated like criminals” “ have been abused” you really do have a vivid imagination. When I filed my last ninety day report a couple of months ago it took me four minutes from when I left the car to when I returned, the Immigration staff are always very polite and friendly. I felt more abused and treated like a criminal when I lived in Sydney, when returning to a parking meter, that had expired by a few minutes and being handed a not unsubstantial fine by an officious council employee. Of course if it it is such a problem there is always the option of returning to the Land of Utopia from where one came. For me “No Thanks” it’s a small price to pay for living here. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it takes a few minutes and it is done. I combine it with a visit at Makro.... I just wonder what some people have so busy and urgent to do that one visit at immigration in 3 months would be a problem..... When I first came to Thailand to stay, I only had to do a pleasant 180k drive to the border every 90 days. If I was told I must report to immigration every 90 days, I would never have stayed in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I lived in Pathum Thani just the passport was sufficient while now in Ayutthaya a TM 47 and the usual passport copies are required every time. Just another case of IOs making up their own rules. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its simply not an issue. It may be minor for you, but I don't think it is minor for most people. Have a look at the poll. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanuman2547 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I really dislike the 90 day reporting. They know where we are when they issued us a visa and the requirement that the landlord or hotel report that a foreigner is staying there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightfox Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I have never went to immigration to do a 90 report. As my immigration is 80 km away, I pay my agent 1,000 bht for them to send my 90 day receipt slip to my address every 90 days for one year. Don't need to step outside my house for that as It would cost me 1,000 bht just to drive there and back on fuel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff are certainly not friendly in Khon Kaen, rude and corrupt. I was given a traffic ticket in Melbourne when going in to a shop to buy a pint of milk. it was amazing, I never even saw a warden. It said I was facing the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I have been lucky over the years with Immigration both at offices, airports, and border crossings only one guy at Masai in Chiang Rai was a bit rude but I had put the wrong details on the form. In Australia I think parking, speeding etc fines are just a massive revenue earner. I understand that in Sydney now the local councils have people who photograph your number plate and you get the infringement through the mail. You don’t get the chance to confront your accuser. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still you haven't been able to find only 1 example of one of these criminals being busted thanks to the 90 days reporting Also you seem confused about the process of travelling and borders AFAIK the only one allowing convicted criminals to enter in Thailand are the Thai authorities, and particularly the immigration. They are suposed to be in charge of the control of the borders of their country and they are in charge to according a visa or not to enter and stay in Thailand. So to sum up your thinking about it you are ok to keep going forever a useless system being a hassle for thousands of innocent people every 90 days, just in case in the future it could maybe help to bust a criminal (Even if it's likely unlikely to happen) and all of this just because the Thai immigration isn't doing the right verifications on the people entering the country?

Nope renewing your visa or your extension of stay and a TM 30 if you change your location are the only events wich give to the authorities an up to date information on your location, as you have to give a proof of your actual location. I have never been asked where i was staying nor having to give any proof of my location when i do my 90 days report Edited May 10, 2021 by kingofthemountain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A poll of Thai Visa Forum activists will naturally create negative results. There is zero evidence that the respondents are in Thailand, have ever been to Thailand or have had any dealings with immigration. Moreover, there does seem to be a rump of people here who complain about every single aspect of living in Thailand and would no doubt complain if they were given financial rewards for attending government offices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
