I entered Thailand visa exempt on 22/2/25

After that I got a NON-O retirement on 22/4/25 at the Immigration Office (visa change).

My 90 days are starting from which of the two?

 

Cheers

Are you planning on obtaining a 12 month extension

Read point 5 in attached link regarding very first 90 report after application for extension. 

 

For subsequent extensions the reporting has nothing to do with extension. However some immigration offices start the 90 count again when applying for extension. 

If that's the case the io should indicate that... Usually by placing report due date in passport.

Thanks for the replies.

 

So my 90 days count starts from 22/2 or 22/4?

 

Maybe I should just go to the Immigration office and ask!

It starts neither date.  Neither of those entries grants you more than 90 days, so there is no 90 day report required.  The date starts from when you get the 1-year extension.  The immigration officer will attach a slip of paper into your passport that includes when your next (first) 90-day report will be due.

Wrong info you are giving @BrandonJT

From the 22 Feb he has been here continuously and will continue to do so for the next year, therefore his 90 days is due on or before 22nd May.

Very few IO offices start a new 90 days when a Ret Visa or extension is given, so refer back to the above sentence.

 

Also he will need to do his first 90 days at the Imm Office wherever he is residing, and after that can do online.

It's not wrong.  I know that for a fact.  A stay that is not eligible to be over 90 days does not incur a 90-day report requirement.  The first 90-day report will be 90 days after the first stay that allows more than 90 days.  That would be 90 days after the first 1-year extension.  They will put a slip in the passport indicating when the first report will be.  @Tod Daniels would be happy to confirm what I'm saying.

The general rule is that a 90-day report (TM47) is due to be filed if/when one stays within Thailand for 90 consecutive days.  That general rule would not apply in 2 situations:

(1) When you converted in-country to a Non-O AND the immigration office when converting adds a TM47 Receipt of Notification (with reporting date) to your passport.  Obviously, just report by the new date given.

(2) If one believes the reports, apparently some (few?) immigration offices take the position that a new annual extension starts over a new 90-day time period....but I wouldn't buy that concept unless you're given a new TM47 Receipt of Notification at the time you get your annual extension.  I'd note that Chiangmai Immigration does not take this view (up here, 90-day time periods and annual extension dates are separate/independent).

My 90 day reports always states the date the next report is due, so read the 90day report. Nothing to do with long term visas

He hasn't yet done a 90 day report, therefore cannot read it,(tm47)

Some misinformation in this thread.

Posts from @BrandonJTare correct.

 

 

OP your count for first 90 report starts when you apply for your extension.

That's why I asked if you plan on obtaining a 12 month extension.

 

As mentioned in couple of posts some immigration offices do the 90 reports when folk apply for future extensions. 

In actual fact apart from first extension 90 day reports have nothing to do with annual extensions.

90-day report (TM47) is due when one PHYSICALLY STAYS in Thailand for 90 consecutive days

 

Day 1 is WHEN you pass immigration.  Most offices will allow you to do a TM-47 up to 5 days early.

 

ALL paperwork depends on LOCAL IO policy, ASK your LOCAL IO what their policy is, be safe.

Thanks everybody for the replies.

In my opinion, on May 23 it is going to be 91 consecutive days in Thailand, so I'd need a 90 day report before that date or else pay 2000 baht for being late!

I'm going to visit the Imm. Office (Chiang Mai) the next coming days to be sure.

Cheers

Be my guest but you are wasting your time.

The application for first extension starts the clock.

In any event here is link for 90 day report at CW.

https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/ 

 

It works a treat. The desk for queue ticket is far right side.

The io will check your form and printout of booking confirmation.

You will be seen straight away.

Technically, you can report in person up to 7 dats  (hmmm....consider that about 6 days as they may consider your due date as day 1 of the 7-day period) after the due date.

Regardless, just use the drive-thru window (or adjacent walk-up window) as that typically takes only a few minutes.  All they need there is your passport and a completed TM47.

Edit:  If the officer gives you a new TM47 Receipt of Notification, that would indicate you correctly and timely filed the report; alternatively, if the officer for some reason hands you back your passport and TM47 and tells you that you had no need to report, that'd be an answer too.  Come back to this thread and give us the lowdown.
