marshbags Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 (edited) Did my 90 day report yesterday and had no problems at all. Please note the actual 90 day office which was in a seperate building has now been moved to main office building. The office has been re arranged to accomodate this and for me feels more comfortable than before. They still use the old building for photo copying but it is very busy and time consuming so it,s best to take with you a complete set of all used pages in your passport. At this time they need one copy of your main page, one of your current visa and one of your departure card. I,m not sure if they will allow the current visa and departure card together on one A4 as mine were seperate, but don,t see why not. The staff were as always very friendly, courteous and helpful I always take two copies of every used page ( 50 satang a copy so not expensive ) just in case of changes on policy. Any copies you do not need can then be saved for future use marshbags Edited September 5, 2012 by marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 It was rather confusing last time considering they just changed to using that seperate building not long before.Maybe it was for a refurb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickBradford Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The only problem with Sriracha is the ratty old building they use, which is always standing room only. It's a sort of Suan Pluu in miniature, papers everywhere, chaos, applicants everywhere. But it has character, and I hope they keep it -- if not, they might close it and force us all to go to Banglamung (shudder ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The re arranged furniture has improved it IMHO while most importantly keeping same staff. I usually go first thing in the morning and there has always been seats free. I,ve used several Immigration offices and have to say the Sriracha"s processing at the present time comes out on top. marshbags Edited September 5, 2012 by marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Sri Racha Immigration Small room usually no seats often full of Burmese and other ASEAN factory workers, dock workers, etc. Helpful staff. Bonkers about photocopying everything often multiple times. Long waits (if behind 40 ASEAN factory workers). Preferable to some offices with more xenophobic staff (this info is in posts in this forum). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preferable to some offices with more xenophobic staff (this info is in posts in this forum). If you follow the advice I have offered in my OP you should be in and out before the rush of other applicants Briggsy highlights. As of my latest visit 2 days ago they usually turn up requiring photo copies and now they have seperated the photo copying and the actual 90 day registration it can be avoided. If you make sure you have two copies of every used page in your passport this should usually cover changes that are made from time to time regarding p.copy. requirements. I cannot recall in 20 years ever having to provide more than two copies. Even then it was for renewal of the actual visas. Regarding what Briggsy highlights again he isn,t exagerating re the multiples of Asian immigrants wanting visa,s ect. but it is easy to get in the main office with the new arrangement before the rush as most do not go with the correct paperwork and just turn up with their application form and passport only, The first couple of times I visited to (1) check the facility out, local requirements and service (2) check if my fixed deposit was acceptable for my Ret. visa 800K funding.( a resounding approval from me on this and yes i was allowed to use my fixed acc. but rightly advised to make sure I had the standard banking letter to go with it which was double checked on the day re date it was issued and bank locality. ) I also checked the joint photocopy / 90 day unit and it really was shocker, chaotic and the smell of stale whatever most had eaten was overpowering. Thank you Sriracha immigration for kindly seperating the actual reporting from the copying. marshbags Edited September 6, 2012 by marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 There is no photo copy required in Bangkok unless you are talking about mail reporting (and they are returned). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Never had to take any photo copies before for 90 days only proof of address and of course the form .is this new as i have to report next month Sri Racha started doing this about 3 or 4 90 day report periods ago. No idea why. Mines a Non-imm B and it looks like the OP's visa is a retirement one so obviously both those have to do it. As others have said as well, the staff at Sri Racha are very friendly and helpful. Nothing like reports of other offices staff you hear about on here.

Whenever I do a report I always take my personal Immigration folder with me, but leave it in the pick up just in case it,s needed for reference ect. or some change in proceedure. marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have some connection with the vast amount of Asian applicants, especially the Bumese ones, for whatever reasons. marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
