thaihome Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I am still convinced this 90 day rule is really just another small annoyance to inconvenience foreigners. Yeah right. TH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manfromoz Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Take away the cynicism and they may want you to report every 90 days to make sure you are still: 1. Here 2. Alive Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Conners Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 1) They get the TM6 when you leave the country 2) I don't think you failing to show up for your 90 days will trigger any searches for your body. A shrug at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Well Manfromoz, I hate to sound cynical (don't think I am too much so), but I have lived here for 15 years (the past 11 continuously on a one year extension) and have, until this past 12 months, never reported my whereabouts to my local immigration. Nor were they particularly concerned over the years where I was, nor, frankly, did they seem particularly concerned the other day. My impression was this was just another annoying piece of paper they had to fill out and file. The immigration officers know me well, know exactly where I live and aren't too interested in me reporting to them, only require it because Bangkok requires it.

Dickie Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 So the easiest way with the least hassle is to report every 90 days and be done with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manfromoz Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 sbk, What happens now is not necessarily what was intended when the 90 day reporting was introduced. Like most public servants they just do whatever is least hassle for them to get a paycheque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
