arfandy Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Non-Imm 0 marriage based visa, i missed my first report because the online reporting was down a while back. CW and MTT wouldnt accept my walk-in report and told me to drive up to wherever my IO is located. Then this month too, due to covid-19 travel restriction and mandatory 14-day quarantine upon arrival to my designated Immigration Office, so no go. I'm perfectly aware of 2000 baht fine per missed out 90-day report and okay with it because just to visit my local IO, gasoline roundtrip will cost me over 2.5k baht excluding other travel expenses and possible few layers of covid-19 check points on each passing province (i cant afford to show my 5-months expired driving license to them). So pay the fine at once when due is actually cost effective. Is there any other punishment/fine i should be aware of upon check out of the country and/or yearly non-imm O visa extension? I.e deportation? Years of Black listed? Jailed? Etc? Thanks 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ubonjoe Posted May 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2021 The only punishment for being late for a 90 day report or not doing them at all is 2000 baht. Immigration at airports do not check for or enforce 90 day reporting. It is not their responsibility to do it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends of the situation and immigration officers. Phuket immigration will often wave the fine in the current situation but it depends on the person and immigration officer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuchulainn Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) So say, for example, the online report doesn't work for you and the post(for me) is unreliable (as I am still waiting for my 90 days slip from MTT for 8 weeks now), would it be ok to ignore all 90 days reporting for a year until the day before your visa extension and then do it at MTT and pay B2,000? Just wondering! Edited May 21, 2021 by Cuchulainn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on your interpretation. Quote The Fine : In case of not notifying. – On condition that the foreigner comes to inform the officer on their own, the fine not be less than 2,000 Baht. – If fail to notify and be arrested the fine must be at least 4,000 Baht. And with an additional fine not exceeding 200 Baht for each day which passes until the law is complied with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay 2000 baht is way cheaper than i have to drive over 700km to my local office, do the math please. Price of gas per litter for 1400km roundtrip. I'm prepared to pay 2000 baht x 4 (assuming i will and am gonna miss 4 reports throughout the 12 months), still cheaper than price of gas or airplane tickets once in every 90 days. And doesnt seem i will get deported for not doing 90 day report throughout the entire year (sorry for dissapointing you). I take it i'll probably pay 8000 baht on my next extension?. No biggie as long as i dont get deported or black-listed. Edited May 21, 2021 by arfandy Typo 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my understanding. Obtained the extension through my local IO, had to wait 30 days for interview. I've told them i likely unable to visit my local IO in every 90 days and was told about a fine of 2000 baht which is fine for me. I didnt ask about harsher capital punishment and all (i forgot) hence this brought me to this post here. Maybe i'll do the report when i have business trip to the North, might as well pay up what's due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not feed the troll. 8000 baht isnt enough to pay the fine for misses? Did you even read anything? The purpose of this POST is to ask if there is any capital punishment other than monetery. Money is NOT a damn issue and i am not trying to whine like you running your keyboard warrior belt. You are being a bitch with zero knowledge. I said it clearly, i am aware of the fine, no biggie. I can even do you a favor and pay your full school tuition so you can have a little manner. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No biggie as long as i dont get deported or black-listed. Not so sure about that. When I was doing my last extension there was a couple & their young son also doing theirs. They had not done their 90 day report ( for each person ) for the 2 previous reporting dates and were fined accordingly, 2000 baht each for each report missed, total 12000 baht. The couple complained about being fined and said they didn't know they had to do 90 day reports. The IO checked further in the system and discovered that they had not done 3 reports prior to that either, for which they had been fined. So that was a total of 5 reports missed out of the last 6 due. No sympathy from the IO or from those of us waiting our turn when the wife turned away from the IO and started complaining to us. We all just ignored her. In clear english they were told that if they missed another 90 day report their extension would be cancelled and they would then have 7 days to leave the country. It's possible this could vary from Imm Office to Imm Office but there was no mistaking the situation for this couple and their son, and the IO said it loud enough for all those waiting in the immediate vicinity to hear.

Bradmeister Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 OP, Many don't check in ..... its such a waste of time, energy and effort. Needless to say: Blow them all off if you miss 1x for whatever reason..... Some have purposely "never checked in" for over 20 years now, and still to this day, do not. As they seem to be under the radar of the system now. The belief that we may be inter-continental criminals is an old law, seldom enforced except to be monetarily extorted by the corrupt. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
