Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected

[daejung]

Hello,

 

I used for the first time the online application for 90 days application yesterday march 27 th and I received  an email this morning saying that ir was rejected without any explanation.

 

What can be the reason ? In january I made a trip to Laos and re-entered Thailand on january 10 th so I think I made my 90 days application in time. On January 17th I renewed my 1 year extension till february 2025

 

What can be wrong ? They wrote I should contact Immigration immediately ? Is is that urgent ? I will go to Chaengwattana netx week.

 

Thanks

Standard reply, but you still need to go within

the reporting window.

 

Think you may have applied a tad too early

When was the last time you filed a TM30?

 

When was the last time you filed a TM47?

 

I think there may be some requirement for filing in person for your first report.

 

If you go in person, consider making an appointment.

In Chiang Mai the first 90 day report has to be filed at immigration office. Subsequent can be completed online provided you haven't exited the country.

 

Same where you applied?

Can I re-apply then  ?

I thought due date was april 8th since I entered on january 10 th
I read I could apply 15 days before, therefore as from march 25th (-1 days) till april 14th (+8 days) and I applied on 27th

 

When they reject it would be helpful if they gave a motive.

Check your application option to provide visa end date,this will be your new permitted to stay until date stamped in your passport.

Your report must show your name as is written in your passport ie middle name is required

When I came back in July 2023, updated my TM30 and renewed my extension of stay in August 2023. My online report was rejected in Oct 2023.

 

They wanted me to update the TM30, so had to go home and get a paper copy and return. They told me the TM30 they had on record was from 5 years before.

I entered my new extension of stay date in february 2025

I don't have middle name... just one first name with "-" but "-" is not accepted... so 2 names in first name field

The usual insane reply. There is no rhyme or reason within Thai Immigration. They enjoy treating the farang as their whipping boy.   I have filed applications online which left boxes unchecked and several other errors and gotten approval. Your experience validates my theory that they just enjoy playing with us.

Give it a go at re-applying.

 

Now, as to asking immigration to explain

their motives.,..

Edited March 28 by dick turpin

I had the very same thing this morning.

Rejection was based on the fact that they didn’t have a T30 from me!

 Was told by the said Immigration a while back that I don’t need to do a T30 anymore.

There is a document in my passport confirming my residency.

But this could not be disclosed online!

I was asked to report to CM Immigration.

usually I do it on “the drive through “ service in CM.

Hope I don’t have to pay a fine.

My 90 days expires on 2 April!

There is no "online application for 90 days application"

It is online 90 day reporting.

I will try tomorrow since they rejected today.

 

When I donwloaded the TM47 after applying online, I noticed that none of the 2 checkboxes "Tourist" and "Non-Imm" were checked,but there is noway to check them when applying

Is it the reason why my application was rejected then ?😉

[Chongalulu]

After years of seamless 90 day reporting on line I too just had my application rejected. Strangely I didn’t get the usual reminder email . This is the first 90 day after retirement visa extension in January so everything was completely up to date and I was 13 days before due date so comfortably within the window. I always double check my information is correctly entered. There is obviously something amiss with the system at the moment. Korat office.

Most likely is that you missed the last scheduled due date as you had already left the country, and upon returning, first 90-day must be done in person.

 

But is it possible your 90-day clock was reset with your extension on Jan 17th....which would move your 15-day online reporting window?

Be sure to do as same thing happened to me yesterday for a Monday application and arriving at CW at 1124 got queue number 315 (processing 105).  Got out at 1630 - no issue with normal TM47 and last reporting receipt and passport all that checked.  Can think of no reason for rejection as have not even traveled in last decade and all information was copy of previous report using software copy icon.

Could be that they reset your reporting clock as part of that process without telling you. That certainly happened to me at Rayong last year!

 

EDIT: @NoDisplayName has already made this suggestion, I see!!

At Korat, previously, your final 90-day report expiry was timed to coincide with

the end date of your extension, when they reset the clock. Note this year the next

report due date ran past the extension renewal date, even so still had the

clock reset on my recent extension renewal.

 

And you guessed it, just had a reminder to renew my old report. 

Wondering what happens now when my current report is due.

This is the reason you cannot do it online.   The clock resets and your 90 day report is now due 90 days after you returned, but everything resets so that means that the first 90 day report has to be done in immigration and then the ones after that can be done online again.

Immediately is used to tell you it's kinda important.  If you applied at the earliest possible online, you were within two weeks of your reporting date.  Subtract three days or so for the denial email, subtract a weekend, and you've only got 4-5 working days until your report date.

 

I believe you have up to a week after the due date, but still.......don't dawdle.

About a year ago I re-entered Thailand from a trip to Egypt.  I was able to use the online reporting system for my first 90 day report after entering the country.  It may depend on the office.  I do my reporting in Chiang Rai.

 

I was also able to do my first 90 day report online after arriving back in Thailand last June.
