JoseThailand Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 I read on some websites that the first 90 day report has to be done in person, not online. Is it true? Or is this outdated information?

Not sure which immigration office you deal with however CW like the mail option posted 15 days prior to due date. 1
Foxx Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 9 minutes ago, JoseThailand said: What if I try to do the first report online - will the electronic system allow it? It will allow it, but you'll later get an email rejecting the report stating that it has to be done in person. By that time it's too late to do it by mail, and you may not be able to get an appointment (at least at Chaengwattana) and be condemned to waiting hours to do so in person. 2
JoseThailand Posted September 26, 2024 Author Posted September 26, 2024 What is considered "the first 90 day report"? The first report after entering the country? Or the very first report for a particular person?

I think "the first 90-day report" can be... your first 90-day report EVER your first 90-day report after returning to Thailand after an international trip your first 90-day report after getting a new passport your first 90-day report after moving to a new address (and filing a TM30) {and maybe a few other situations} Have you filed a TM30 for your address? I think you should file in person, but that's just my best guess. 5

Will it be the first report or not?

You mean 75 - 90 days after you return? It could be, if you hadn't filed one previously. You still have to file in person after reentering Thailand.

Popular Post connda Posted September 26, 2024 Popular Post Posted September 26, 2024 And after you first 90 day in person, your second (and future) 90 days may still be rejected online. It's convenient when it works, but it totally sucks when it doesn't. 1 1 1
Dirk Z Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 I tried twice online after entering and got rejected. Had to show up at CW in person. Most annoying. 1

As I read the page, you have three options, in person, email, or online; thus, it should not be mandatory to report in person or mail the first time.
black tabby12345 Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 First 90 day report - does it have to be done in person, not online? ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー Try Online only if it works now. I have tried it before, but never worked. So I do it in person Every Time. If they can't properly maintain standard service like this, how can they expect they can do better with ETA? Just doesn't make any sense. 1

I returned from abroad in February and did the first report my mail. No problem. Tried to do the 2 nd one online was was rejected. I went to Chaeng Wattana and the officer made it quite clear to me that you can only report online after a personal visit.

dallen52 Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Just use the TM47 app. About 5 lines of information. Too easy. Response within 24 hours. 1

Zillion posts in so many threads of online not working for unknown reasons. And no it's not down to not providing correct information. As we know using magnifying glass after pp # and name it's auto fill. You do not need 5 lines. Yet MANY receive rejection. 1
Lorry Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 13 hours ago, DrJack54 said: Read it carefully regarding mail option. Nothing to do with email. Thanks for posting. The immigration website says: The above mentioned documents (1-5) must be sent by registered mail before the renewal date 15 days to Immigration Office in local area where the foreigner resides. I don't fully understand this. When should I send my letter to CW? If due date is Oct 15, I send on Oct 1? Or is that too late?

You will get a rejection Your application for "STAYING LONGER THAN 90 DAYS" has been rejected. Please contact the nearest Immigration Office in person immediately.

The Section 38 mobile app was retired a few years ago. And replaced with a website. https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/login accessible with a browser (on a PC, phone, tablet, etc.) 11 hours ago, dallen52 said: Response within 24 hours. Depends on reporting office, and other unknown variables. For me, CW, this week, three full days. 11 hours ago, dallen52 said: I've left and returning several times and doing the 1st 90 report on line using the app. What is your reporting office? The requirement to file a 90-day report in person after returning from an international trip, is well documented. As with any immigration rule, some offices may not enforce this. 1

rhodie Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 23 minutes ago, JoseThailand said: Will find out in 2 months, thanks Jomtien require an in person visit after you enter the country for a 90 day report. After that you can do it online. You used to be able to do the report online after returning from abroad, but that has changed in the last year. Extract from email below: 2 Have a great day
