ForumUsername Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I stupidly just realised that I have missed my 90 day reporting by a month. I got things confused with my education visa renewal and thought it wasn't due until mid-August. Anyways, I usually report in Chiang Mai but now I would like to report in Hua Hin where I will be staying (and studying). Is this okay or do I have to report in Chiang Mai? I do understand if I'm polite and offer no hassle I'll probably get "only" a 2,000 baht fine for forgetting to report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Late reporting is not an overstay. Overstay is being here without a valid permit to stay. You can do your report anywhere as long as you have a local address to put on your permit to stay, You may need to prove that address. But I do not know if they will do it if you are late. All you can do is try and if not do it when you go back to Chiang Mai since you are already late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Since you will be staying in Hua Hin I would report your stay at Hua Hin immigration and do your 90 day report there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosk Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I did the same last year, forgot to report 90 days with more then one month, had to pay 2000bht fine in immigration jomtien, pattaya (have retirement visa), normally you can report every immigration office you want, but have to ask to be sure, its still Thailand after all....

Suradit69 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 (edited) If you've taken up residence in Hua Hin you should also bear in mind the information posted in another thread: Hua Hin Immigration is from today also enforcing the requirements that you and your landlord (condominium owner, house owner etc) must report to Immigration within 24 hours of moving in to a new address. On your arrival card you already reported your place of stay, and if that changes you need to visit Immigration and report your new address. This applies to both tourists and expats. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/747147-immigration-foreigners-must-now-carry-valid-id-at-all-times-report-within-24-hours/?utm_source=newsletter-20140729-1734&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=breaking You might otherwise have a failure to report issue for both the 90 day report and the more current 24 hour report for change of address. I do understand if I'm polite ... Why is being polite considered some special tactic? Why would you not be polite?

Mario2008 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 The rule is to report your current address. That is why many immigration offices allow you to report at their office, if you at that time stay in their area of responsibility and can show some proof of that, like a hotel bill. In that case they would be the right office to report to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardandtubs Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I didn't have to prove my address last time I did that in Samui. They just wanted me to write it on a piece of notepaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I had to go to Pattaya. Sent from my Galaxy S4 4G LTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
