August 4, 20232 yr Hi I recently forgot to do my 90 day check-in report Can you tell me if this is issue when I leave the country? I dont want a mark against me in the system Thanks
August 4, 20232 yr Popular Post Do your 90 day report in person, at a IO and pay a fine (1,900)? and you be ok.
August 4, 20232 yr I doubt that they will even check. If some IO decides to check your computer record, unlikely, but possible, you may get a warning, but I even doubt that. Different situation if you were staying,, in which case you would get a fine. It's more common than you think, the odd forgetfulness, so long as it doesn't become a habit.

I finally could go to immigration and they waived the fine, but said next time I will have to pay if reporting late again. However YMMV

Max fine for 90 day late reporting is: 2000 THB if you go yourself to immigration 4000 THB if you get stopped by immigration and they notice it.

It allows immigration to have more updated contact information for you than the old arrival cards: in case they or your embassy needs to do so.

I did my report yesterday. So if I move tomorrow, they won't know where I am until I report my address again in another 90 days. A sensible rule would be: "If you move to a new address, you must report the new address to us within seven days. Until then, we will assume that you are still at the last address that you reported to us." But since they don't do that, I think it is safe to assume that the whole point of the exercise is to generate some easy revenue. The fine for being late with this report is more than the cost of the visa renewal for an entire year. It's totally out of proportion to the "crime".

I had applied online before my due date, but when I didn't hear from them by the time of my due date, I went in to the Immigration Bureau as soon as I could, which was yesterday, after a six day holiday. Unfortunately they didn't waive my fine. It's all about the money, because there is no rational point to the exercise.

Two weeks before the due date and one week after, right? In that case it's not a 90-day report. It's a 75-day report if I report my address two weeks before the due date every time.

It's a 75-day report if I report my address two weeks before the due date every time. I understand that but now that can be done online not that much of an issue for most. And I have only been able to take advantage of online last several years as entry date was too old previously. Foreigners should be reported by owners of housing so if that were 100% there should be no need for these 90 day extra reports (other than the original law). But as we know many owners of apartments/rooms and such fail to report - so we get the stick with this extra check.

If you are registered to do your 90 day online, Immigration send a reminder on e mail. it couldn't be easier. I have no idea why people still go to immigration to do that report. The new online system seems to be very good and reliable.

It's a 75-day report if I report my address two weeks before the due date every time. That would make it one 75-day report followed by a series of consecutive 90 day reports if you do it two weeks early every time. That's providing the next due date doesn't change when you report early, which I am relatively sure is the case. (Edit.... I was apparently wrong about this. Sorry!)

The next due date shifts if you do the report early or later for example if your report is due today and you go today, next report is November 1st. But if you went yesterday (due date again today) your next report date would be October 31st. so if you go tomorrow (hypothetically as tmrw is a Saturday) the next report due date will be November 2nd.

Nope for that (change of address) immigration uses the TM30 which AFAIK must be filed within 24 hours of moving to a new address. They (immigration) is AFAIK stricter with the TM30 enforcement then the 90 day report.
