popshirt Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I renewed my retirement visa yesterday but still have the piece of paper stapled to my passport that instructs me to report address on Sept. 10. This seems a bit redundant to me after filing all the papers for visa renewal yesterday. My question is: do I begin counting the 90 days from yesterday or is the reporting process on a separate time clock and I need to report on Sept. 10?

Just to keep things going I have always gone by the last 90day report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 You use the paper date. The only time a TM.7 counts as an address report is the initial extension of stay. Renewals do not count. You could have reported your address with a new TM.47 yesterday as it would have been within the allowed plus/minus 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctormann Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) I renewed my retirement visa yesterday but still have the piece of paper stapled to my passport that instructs me to report address on Sept. 10.This seems a bit redundant to me after filing all the papers for visa renewal yesterday. My question is: do I begin counting the 90 days from yesterday or is the reporting process on a separate time clock and I need to report on Sept. 10? The visa extension date and the 90-day reporting date are not related. You should report 90 days after your last reporting date or 90 days after your last entry into LoS if this gives a later date. For example, say your last report was on 01 July - your 90 day date would be around the end of September. However, if you took a trip out of LoS and returned on 01 August your reporting date would be around the end of October. You are allowed +/- 7 days on the due date (unless this has changed recently) so it is probably a good idea to do it slightly early to make sure that you don't fall foul of public holidays when, of course, Immigration officies are closed. If you miss your date I believe that it's a 2000 Baht fine! DM Seems that Lopburi has pre-empted what I was saying here. Mai pen rai!
