90 Days by Post to Changwattana

[Finlaco]

My 90-day online report has been rejected. I have about a 50% success rate. I already reserved a booking to do it in person, as their online system is not reliable.

 

 

I am thinking that maybe next time I will do via the post.

 

Has anyone recently done the report via post?  How long does it take?   Any advice/suggestions?

 

Their website says 15 days before and mine is due Nov 24 - Does this mean I cant do postal this time.

90 day report via mail is pretty much bullet proof.

You have the correct information posted in your OP.

Yes needs to be done 15 days prior to due date so for current one stick with in person appointment.

With appointment print out hard copy of appointment and filled out TM47.

At que desk it's the window to far right.

The lady at desk will communicate directly with the immigration officer and you will be seen straight away..

 

With mail I use 2 B4 envelopes.

Post ems etc according to guidelines in your OP.

Do not panic when it takes a long time for return approval (perhaps 4 weeks up) 

The good thing with mail option is that the new count starts from renewal date and not from when it's processed (unlike online reporting). 

Here is link to instructions from immigration:
