I believe that somewhere in the system there is a rule which states if you can prove the 90 day report was sent there is no penalty! Who cares if they do not want to issue a receipt?

Way back, when Korat immigration used to accept 90 day report by mail, I posted off my report notification. Then they changed the rule shortly after, they no longer accepted mail reporting. My post report was in limbo. I waited until until the final day of reporting and visited their office. All I got from them was a nonchalant 'if you go to the office adjacent to the main office and it's still there we won't fine you for failing to report'. What kind of attitude is that? Luckily my unopened report was there and I was let off. This place really p's me off sometimes. People in position of power really know how to abuse their positions.

You can access the site but the problem occurs when filling out the form. On a mac with Safari you can use an a user agent switcher to use IE.

Gary A Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 During my last 90 day report, I specifically asked if I could do the next report online. The answer was no, you have to come here in person. In addition, they have changed back to requiring a copy of every page in my passport as well as the form. It is a hundred kilometer one way trip for me. What a stupid waste !!

Perhaps report the office by calling 1178 since the are disobeying orders and the immigration act that states they can be done my mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The present lady, if you can call her a lady, made my life miserable by changing all the rules. Before she took over everything was easy and friendly. I don't want to get her started again.

Fookhaht Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 On the main webpage of www.immigration.go.th, the 90-day reporting option choice on the left panel is now only in Thai (using Google Chrome). When you click on that, and use Google Chrome to translate the resulting page, they have removed the option for reporting online. Secondly, note that if you use IE, only version 11 will work (when and if the option to report online comes back). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the mood of the officer you visit is the final say, regardless of the "rules." I tried the same as you, and when I was challenged later at the immigration office (because I could not produce the official receipt--only the EMS receipt, plus a copy of the officer's signature who received it), the $hit hit the fan, because I dared challenge the clerk. After much haggling, she finally relented and told me sternly that the next time I tried this shenanigan, I will have to pay a minimum 5,000B "overstay penalty" (terminology made no sense to me either). In the very same office, two other officers have accepted the EMS receipt. Luck of the draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce404 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Re: 90-day reporting As a convenience for myself and others, I have created a side-by-side Word® .docx translation of the new Thai-language Immigration page for online reporting, as it exists today: https://www.immigration.go.th/content/sv_90day (https://www.immigration.go.th/content/sv_90day) See attached .docx upload. Note regarding the current webpage: (1) It does not mention online reporting, which reportedly is now working for some, but does describe mail-in reporting. (2) It only works in Internet Explorer v. 11. (3) It only exists in Thai, despite the language option field at the top. (4) Many of its embedded URL hotlinks lead to "not found" error messages Finally, the link to the "Online_Services" web page is misspelled. It only works if you misspell it as "immigration.go.th/content/online_serivces", interchanging the "v" and the "i". On a separate subject regarding online TM.30-form reporting by house and condo owners and hotels of the arrival of foreign guests: During the many months that the online reporting service has been inoperative, at least two provincial Immigration offices I am aware of (Chiang Mai and Chonburi) have been accepting emailed reports of the official Excel .xls spreadsheets as attachments, if the Subject: line of the message is written precisely according to proper format, and the .xls spreadsheet similarly is named according to protocol. This is presumably to allow automated read-in to the Immigration database, as each day there must be tens of thousands of new arrivals to lodging establishments in these provinces. When I have some time, I can share the details of how to submit (but only if one has already signed up for and been given an account for online TM.30 reporting). https-www.immigration.go.th-content-sv_90day_2017-07-02.docx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be the first to apologise if it lasts longer than a few months, as I predicted that Thai immigration didn't want online reporting to work. My next report is 3 July but I'll have to do that in person as I find they won't accept it online if not done at least 7 days beforehand of due date. We wait and see.

NE1 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 That 7 day rule has always been there. No earlier than 15 days before the report date and not later than 7 days before the report date. So basically there has been a window of 8 days from the start of this online 90 day reporting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did manage one 90 days announcement last year. Another 90 days later Buriram immigration, after initially denying that this had been done and threatening me with an overstay penalty eventually found someone that knew how to use a computer and accepted it. They then told me not to do it again. I'll ask again on the fifth. They can change you into a wreck just by saying the magic word 'overstay' and they know it.

Bruce404 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 (edited) Mail-ins can be submitted up to 15 days BEFORE the 90-day time limit. So I wonder if online reporting would also be permitted 15 days beforehand. "Cooked" might try it today, at 87 days in country, and let us all know if the website accepts your report.
