Why do receipts cost so much?

IO asks “with receipt 2000, no receipt 1000”.

It's the same in Australia when you call a plumber to fix the blocked dunny. 

 

It's cheaper for cash, you want a receipt you pay extra.

I already acknowledged the mishap in a previous post. I cannot amend my original post because it is now frozen. And yes, reporting by post is a viable option. 

I don't know what SAE is. So far (in two years with a retirement VISA), I only did my 90 days report either in person or online.

What is SAE?

Thank you in advance for your clarification.

My online 90-day is being rejected with no reason, just saying "contact immigration immediately". This is second 90-day report, first was done in person. I have TM30 done as well. What could be the reason why the 90-day online report is being rejected? How can I find out the reason?

Are you using your latest "entry" date as it will be different from your last online report .

You can find out by, "contact immigration immediately"

The point is, that you are encouraging corruption.

 

The fine is the same if you are 2 days, 2 months or almost 1 year late in reporting.

 

The law is there and has been for many years. You don't have to like it, and you can even do it online from home, and it is free as @ukrukes has already said.

Agree. But don't rely on getting a Reminder from Immigration to reapply. After years of doing it online. Not checking the expiry date as I usually do, I went seven days over. My fault and it cost me Bt2000.

Well, you could always try contacting Immigration as they suggest.

 

That is the simplest and easiest thing to do.

 

Nobody here will have any idea why your 90 day report was rejected.

That happened to me once except that I went more than a month overdue.

 

An expensive and very stupid mistake on my part.

Are reminders still being sent?

Numpty.

That would be you.

 

Once in 23 years is not a bad track record.

 

OTOH I have never claimed to be perfect.

 

Most posters on this thread are sensible and offer advice.

 

You, OTOH don't.

Yes, I get them when I do the 90 report online, don't forget to check your spam folder on your PC for the receipt.

I checked Spam. No go. Anyway. Time to move on.😉

Yes I am using my latest entry date. This is my first online report (previous report was done in person at immigration).

How to do that? Do you have some contact? Or you mean going to the local immigration?

You can do an online search for the Thai Immigration service, and ask for the contact details for the Immigration office you normally use. The only contact details that I have are for the Kamphaeng Phet Immigration office which is about 70km from where I live.

 

I would suggest that you visit your local office (if it not too far) to get their contact details. 

 

I believe that they are also un the "Line" app but I have never used it.

Because you were late doing it weren't you?
 

You know you don't need to do these 90 day reports in person, you can send anyone to sit there and do it on your behalf.

Or just do them online.

Thanks but it is solved. I submitted second time exactly the same details as first time and suddenly it was approved.

Couple of days late for 90 day reporting. IO asks “with receipt 2000, no receipt 1000”. I chose the latter. Makes you wonder is it the cost of the paper or the time to write it up that makes up the 1k? Please advise🫢

Yeah, right.   

 

There is no fine for being two days late with the 90-day report.

No "receipt"...you'll likely be fined the full B2000 next time for failing to report, for a total of B3000.

How could that happen when the IO would have provided him with a slip advising of the next reporting date?
