90 day reporting - can I go before the date?

[mja1906]

I'm due for my next 90day report in CM, on 19th June. Can I go a few days before this? I presume I just go there and fill out one of their TM forms and thats it?

nothing else required?

You can go up to 15 days early and 7 days late.

Fill out the form and they might want a couple of pages of your Passport copied.

[MJCM]

You can go 15 days before and 7 days after.

Docs required

Tm47 (available at Desk in Immigration)

Copy Passport Face Page

Copy Current Visa / Extension of Stay

Copy Departure Card (stapled in your passport Tm 6)

Proof of Residence, like for example Lease, Electricity Bill, Phone Bill

(Some immigration offices have other requirements)

As you see different offices, different rules. In Jomtien it's required.

"nothing else required?"

Just an awful lot of patience and loads of time to kill if you have the misfortune to find yourself stuck at the back of a lengthy queue for a solitary window consisting mainly of agents/couriers seeking multiple reports on behalf of whole armies of local Burmese, Cambodian and Laotian workers

And some have no requirements, except passport and completed Tm 47 of course. I refer to Mae Sot. I did my 90 day last Wednesday 12 June, the whole office was completely empty of customers, thus instant service. Long may the situation there remain.

I always report a few days early just in-case the rules change and I need to get other documents in which case I have the extra days in hand to get them.

I also avoid Mondays and Fridays as allegedly these are the busiest days.

Just remember when you do report early, your next 90 days report is 90 days from the day that you do your report, not 90 days from the report date on your form. I always do mine by mail about 10 days early and accept the new date. The ems, 37 baht, and the 10 baht stamp, total 47 baht, is a lot better than driving 200 kilometers and going in person. It also saves me a lot of baht since immigration in Nakhon Sawan is close to Big C and my wife always wants to tag along!

I've done 90 reports for the last year in CM, never asked for proof of address. Including my 90 day report this morning.

I use Nakhon Sawan immigration as well. I live about 70k East but enjoy getting out of the Village and into the big city. However, if I had to use the mail in can you give me some details please?

What paperwork do you send?

Do they have a special mail envelope available at immigration?

What do you get in the return mail?

Thank you.
