It's my own fault, I just didn't put it on the calendar as I usually do. I noticed that I was about a week late on my 90 day address confirmation so I grabbed my passport and went to immigration after work on Friday. They looked at the passport and told me I had overstayed! (My visa expires in late January) When I explained what I was actually there for, they asked for the receipt from my previous 90 day check in. I explained that I had lost it and was told to report the loss to my local police station and return to immigration with the official police report.

Somewhat shaken up by all this I went home and searched though my papers until I found the reciept from last September. I went back to immigration on Monday and was told that I had to pay a 2000 baht fine. I paid it and this time I stapled the recipt into my passport so I would be sure to have it next time.

My previous 90 day reports have all be routine and so I was really blindsided by this. I notice that the 2000 baht fine is the same as a 10 day overstay, is a late check in considered an overstay or is the 2000 baht a standard fine, whether you are one day late or ten? Has anybody else been late with their 90 day check in? If so, what did you have to pay?

You have a window of plus/minus 7 days but if more than that late the standard fine has been 2,000 baht (although by law it can be 5,000 now).

Just went through this 3 months ago and the fine was 2000 baht and I was 14 days late. Just did the 90 day report again and no problems was one day ahead.

Didnt I read something recently that you could now do your 90 registration on line/email.? :o

Wishful thinking AFAIK on the part of some posters from Pattaya. It can be done by mail but not e-mail yet.
