Immigration just stamped my passport for 12 months.

[GinBoy2]

I'm writing this as I wait for my onward flight to KKC, so jetlag may be a factor here...but. Immigration just stamped my passport for an exit date of March 2016, the expiry date of my retirement extension. This is new, when do I have to do 90 day reports, or has there been some stealthy change??

You have to do your 90 day report 90 days after you entered Thailand.

And nothing new as you had a Re-Entry permit and that is the reason why you got stamped with the expiry date of your extension.

If you left Thailand with an extension based on retirement expiring in march 2016 and with a valid re-entry permit they are right.

Your 90 day report would be due in 90 days since entry, simply add 89 days to today.

March isn't 12 months from now.

May would be 12 months from now.

So what do you have in your passport?

An annual extension based on retirement obtained in Thailand or an O-A visa from your home country?

Assuming the former, I'm assuming you had a REENTRY permit in there.

If you did not have a reentry permit then they made a mistake ... you would have only got 30 days.

If you did have the permit, they stamped you correctly.

Your next 90 day report is due 90 days from your last entry.

In the very unlikely event that you did NOT have reentry permit then I think you have a problem and the mistake in stamping would eventually be discovered. If that is the case, I suppose you need to take action to fix that at a Thai immigration office.

OK, now I get it. For some reason I always thought they still stamped for 90 days regardless of my re-entry permit....I sooooo need a nap

The 90 reporting has nothing to do with your entry. You were stamped to the date your extension ends which is normal.

Your next 90 day report of staying longer than 90 days in the country will be due 90 days from the date you entered the country including that date.

I think George should "invent" the ThaiVisa Gift card

So many surprises. So many clueless people.

It's amazing how many people have no idea what they are doing and assume they've experienced some new thing with immigrations. And these people go on and on about all the changes in immigrations rules. And of course it's usually down to the nefarious immigrations officers.

Try to keep up.
