Counting the Days Before 90 Days Reporting

[Southsealad]

Went to my local Immigration Office yesterday, 12 Sep, wanting to do 90 Day  Report.

I re-entered Thailand on 28 June this year.  I had calculated the 90 days this way:

28 - 30 June  = 3 Days

1 - 31 July       = 31 Days

1-31 August    = 31 days

1 - 25 Sep       = 25 days

A total of 90 days, so 90 day reporting date from 26 Sep or 15 days before (11 Sep)  or 7 days after (1 Oct)

 

No said the IO.  Reporting date is 28 Sep using:

28 Jun to 27 July 30 days

28 July to 27 August 31 Days

28 August to 27 September 31 Days

A total of 92 Days

 

Then said upto 7 days after 25 September so last days is 2 Oct.

 

I told her I was leaving Thailand on 3 October and was told 'don't bother to report 90 days  because you will actually be leaving the country on the days you should report.

 

Is she right?

No. (about her arithmetic: why do it easy if you can do it a hard way )

 

The due date is 25 September.

The grace period for reporting in person would end Oct 1st (a Sunday). So effectively Sep 29th.

 

Have you tried online reporting yet?

I would stubbornly apply online NOW.

No, enter ONE DAY before your entry date as that is classed as Day 1 not, as logic would allow, Day 0.

i typed in two search windows and got two answers.  one said 90th day was 25th the other said it was 26th.   So if 25th the last day of 7 days after is 2nd Oct.   If its 26th then last day is 3rd October.   As I am leaving permanently on 3rd October, she was partly correct in saying 'don't bother to report.  (I think!)

Leaving Permanently?

Yes she is correct. 

 

Why even start a thread.

TM47 report is not looked at by immigration at exit. 

 

Even if you are returning very unlikely it would cause an issue.
