Guys what documents does Jomtien want for 90 day reports, apart from passport and TM47.

I'm on a non o retirement extension and have already submitted a TM30 

Thanks

I just handed my passport and 500B to an agent of Chang and sat in a seat for ten minutes.

Not bad, 3,000 baht an hour for the agent.

Not bad work if they can get it. 

My question was about what documents immigration need, if you want to spend 500 baht for a free service that's your choice but I hope that someone who actually has the answer will reply

And a great convenience that I'll take every time.

 

Now looking forward to free and online 90-day reports far, far into the horizon.

The service may be free but the documentary requirements, as your post ably demonstrates, still send people running to TV for an answer.

 

Easier to just show up, play the dumb farang, and avoid any and all drama.

No documents are required other than your passport and new TM 45 application.

At Jomtien Immigration,  there is a separate 90 day report area on the right side immediately as you enter from Soi 5.  No need to wait in the Immigration line.

When I last did my 90 day at Jomtien 2 weeks ago, no documents were required. Just hand them your pp and they give you a number.  You then wait 15-20 minutes, they call that number and you are on your way.

Perhaps the TM45 mentioned is required for the 1st report? 

The copy shops next to Immigration on soi 5 can give you any form for B5.

That shouldn't be necessary as he says a TM30 has been submitted.

Over a dozen 90 day reports at Jomtien over the last several years and I have never been asked for any document besides my passport. 

When handed the passport they do a cursory check for the notice from the last 90 day report to make sure you are within the due date frame.  I have never noticed them checking the TM 30 at that point however the passport is out of sight when the stamping is done so maybe checked at that time.

Must be nice to have money to waste or is it pure laziness? 

The Pattaya City Expats Club website notes the requirements for the first (initial) report requires the following documents at Jomtien Immigration:

 

Quote

Initial Filing

You present your passport with the Form TM.47

Documents Required: a signed photocopy of evidence of your address, e.g., telephone bill in your name, rent receipt showing address, copy of lease, etc. The Immigration Officer will enter the information into the computer database and print out a receipt showing the due date for your next report, and staple it into your passport. The receipt will have a "bar code"

For subsequent reports, all you need is your passport and the receipt with bar code.  You can also use online reporting - the PCEC page describing the online reporting is at: https://pcec.club/online-90-day

Pure laziness.  Does that drive you nuts?

Thanks very much, as it's my first report at Pattaya I will take my significant other with me. I don't have any bills in my name or lease.

That's all you need! Been doing 90 day reports at Soi 5 in Jomtien for 7 years, first time say after going overseas TM47 after that just your passport with bar code slip from last time!

Best to be armed with a flask of coffee and sandwiches looking at the horrendous queues when I went past yesterday!  ????

Thanks to everyone for the information given. I arrived at the immigration office about 10am and there was a queue of about 20 in front of me for 90 day reports. When it was my turn I informed the one and only staff member that it was my first report at Jomtien. She checked that I'd submitted at TM30 already, then gave me a queue number with waiting time of about 40 minutes. 35 minutes later collected my  passport with a new reporting date in March. No forms or copies of anything were asked for.

What I found disturbing was the fact that several foreigners were having stand up arguments with this unfortunate member of staff who was doing her best to deal with dozens of people on her own. It's seemed to me that some of the arguments were from foreigners who think they know better than than the immigration staff.

That's nice and easy, no pesky TM47 form to fill in and presumably a faster clearance rate.

Yes. Let's all keep in mind that the IOs have to put up with these idiots day after day. What a job. Have some understanding if they seem a bit curt sometimes.

So you didn't have to fill out a form?  How lucky for you.

Absolutely agree, the IO staff explain to the 'tourist' they need to fill out a certain form, instead of saying OK, thanks, they starts asking why? Plus many of them cannot speak English and even though I am a native English speaker, even I cant understand what they are saying. How on Earth the IO staff can put up with this is mind boggling! Its no wonder some of them get frustrated and upset?
