eyecatcher Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I don't recall there being queues for an admin task like transferring visas from book to book (only your standard retirement/tourists/teachers/marriage etc) Isn't that task handled at a desk somewhere? The Tm 30 now has a separate office, next door to the marriage/teachers extensions and thats unlikely to attract queues, a 10 minute job? ..and 90 day report, ok it seems most people are still not just turning up at a random time but after 2 or 3pm and you are usually done in less than 45 minutes. really no need to be there before the sun comes up. I wouldnt have wasted that money on those tasks but at 8 furlongs from home I understand where you're trotting from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberfarang Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I have been using the services of G4T since the very beginning. I don`t even bother trying the direct immigration department method and as for the other agencies are concerned, my new years resolution is that I will not give any money to charity in the future. I know the Chiang Mai immigration procedures stink, so just for an easy life I go with what I consider is the best of the worse option, the G4T.

naboo Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 The one thing G4T know is that there is one born every minute. 1600B fine? How about a slice of chocolate brownie? Paying for those other services? Do I look like I'm fresh off the boat? They can be sorted right now, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Saw another one coming! Perpetuating the problem that has seen the end of online appointment booking, probably the end of online 90 days reporting- well done. And yes, it is supposed to be an English forum, not drivel.

muskoka Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I went in to do my 90 day renewal a couple weeks back or so, and one look at the huge lines everywhere and I headed right up to G4T without hesitation. Glad they are there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be sorted right now, I'm sure. 1600 baht is the standard fine for late TM30 reporting, it's not a G4T imposed fine. Try doing it directly at immigration and not paying it sherlock.

Sparkles Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Using the post office fast track, EMS method for 90 day reporting , is possibly the most efficient system in the whole country. You can track your mailing over the net,yes it works,shows the arrival date and dispatch date. Unless your postman is kidnapped during delivery to you its 100 % safe and my costs never exceeds 47 baht. Re this TM 30 nonsense I have never had one, did my retirement visa 3 weeks ago, didnt get a fine ,a yellow book does help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
