Missed 90 day report

[whereyougo]

Hi I understand the 2 k fine but is there a time limit or can I just pay it next 90 day visit 

[DrJack54]

There isn't time limit but you will need to attend in person for next report and pay fine 2k

 

[brewsterbudgen]

No limit.  You could even wait until you have to go to Immigration for a new extension and pay the fine then.

thanks guys!

I understand there is a grace period of 7 - 15 days. I was 10 days late on one, nothing was said about a fine. YMMV, I suppose it depends on which IO is attended.

I have not had to worry about them since going online, Immigration emails a reminder about a fortnight before the due date.

7 days is the official 'grace period' if reporting in person. 15 days before...

 

No grace period for online reporting.

okay let's sort out this "grace period " b/s There is NO grace period

The "window of opportunity" for you to file a 90 day report IN PERSON is from 2 weeks before the due date down until 1 week after the due date.

On the 8th day after your due date you get a 2000baht fine. That is a static fine that does not increase whether you're 8 days late OR 8 months late, you just pay it when you go file the next 90 day report

NOW on the rare chance you're arrested for something else and they find out you haven't filed a 90 day report on time you can be fined up to 5000baht and 200baht a day for every day you're been late. <- at least that's the posted fine but I've never heard of anyone EVER having that happen..

I know people who go to the immigration office once a year, just before they get their next yearly extension, file a late 90 day report, pay the 2000baht fine, get their yearly extension and then NEVER file another 90 day report the rest of the year. Their reasoning is the b/s 2000baht fine is nothing compared to having to go to the immigration office 4 times a year and file a 90 day report. ????

As people correctly pointed out, once you're 8 days late you might as well wait until you have to go back to the immigration office for something and file then, the fine isn't gonna change

No grace period for online reporting.

Hypothetically, if I miss the online report, but go to Immigration in the 7 day window after due date to report personally, what happens then?

Not even hypothetical ????...you are in the clear, having reported within the 15 days before/7 days after.

"b/s There is NO grace period"

 

"until 1 week after the due date."

 

Either you or I are being pedantic; however, that second phrase to me denotes a grace period.

It is not increased on daily basis. 

Perhaps you are thinking of overstay fines that increase daily at rate of 500baht per day

Now that the latest online reporting appears to be working fine, there is no need to go to Immigration at all.  I have now been using the online system for my past 3 reports.  With this latest system, they send me an email reminder when the next report is due.

Nothing, that is legal.

How do I get in to it? When I have tried the imm. police site takes me to online  instructions for online 90  day reporting which says to click on the link to the IP site. I do that, find apply on line yet again, click on that ......and round I go again. Where am I going wrong?

i went to CW back in september after missing a few 90 day reports. i told the IO in the 90 day report office that i missed a few and she said no problem, no fine.  i guess i got lucky.  

 

when i did my extension in early october, they did not ask to see my 90 day report slip.  it was not stapled in my passport but in a zipper pocket in my bag with my vaccine papers.  i forgot all about the 90 day slip.

 

so there is a chance you won't be fined.

I just do it online.  It takes about two minutes, and it works. You even get an email to remind you. The first online service in Thailand, that really works. And instead of a fine I invest in the yearly extension at a price of 1900 Baht. Good deal, eh? ????
