TheVagabond Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I'm filling out form TM7 and am unclear whether I would put my departure flight location from home country (Los Angeles) or do I put Singapore as my Singapore air flight connected through there? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) I've always put the originating place not the connecting airport place. Never questioned. Really doubt it would ever matter either way! Edited November 26, 2013 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaiyenyen Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I've always answered it, Air. As I didn't arrive by sea or land. To give the answer as a place, I would have thought the question would have been Arrived via. But as you say, it doesn't seem to matter either way.

KhaoNiaw Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Me too. Always put "air". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 No, on the TM 7 form there is a specific blank space for FROM. That demands putting a PLACE. There is ALSO a specific blank space for ARRIVED BY, which you would put air if it was air, or whatever mode of transport that it was. You should not keep the space labeled FROM blank.

Maestro Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 In the topic title, the OP asks about "arrived by" and also I was thinking it is about the mode of transport, ie by air, land or sea, but looking at the current arrival card, in use already for many years, I see that there is no question about "arrived by" (see attachments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisY1 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I also always put "Air" .... But have been thinking of using "Buffalo cart"!...doubt they'de notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 You know what? no one will ever read or notice what you going to put there, you can put I arrived from the moon and that will be ok by them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I think they would notice if you put something nutty on the form. For my past 6 extensions I have put. Arrived by: Bus From: Savannakhet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 The OP states TM7 and very specifically states Arrived By (Mode of transportation). Always used Air unless a land crossing. There is a separate place for the From which I use the city the flight departed from to BKK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nana Cowboy Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I was corrected once by an immi official in Ranong as he told me to change it to "boat" as I was arriving by boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy B Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I have put "airplane" and "banana boat" before. It was never questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
