Upnotover Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 If they only gave a one month entry maybe they missed your re-entry permit? (did you make it clear on your arrival form?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovethailandelite Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Did you actually purchase a rentry permit before you left the country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retirementenquiry Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Thanks for coming back to me on this one yes i did buy the multi re entry permit its a stamp on my passport valid till aug/17 so maybe its a mistake by airport immigration will go jomtiem tomorrow question is if you have a multi re entry do you still have to do a report on before or after trip?

If you had a re-entry permit it is a mistake by Immigration who missed it. Some people put there rentry permit number on there TM6 card in place of the visa number in order the I/O at the airport notices it. I am not entirely sure it can be corrected at any immigration office but somebody who knows for sure will confirm if it can be done at Jomtien or if you need to go back to airport immigration. It's not something I have ever had to do myself so cannot say exactly. Your 90 day report will be due 90 days from when you entered the country this time. The day you entered being day 1 of the 90 days. It can be done up to 15 days early or up to 7 days late.

There is no fee for it. Leaving the country ends the need for a report until 90 days from the date you enter the country. Were you up to date on on your 90 day reporting when you left the country.

I have a feeling the 2k fine was for a failure to lodge a TM30 within 24hrs of returning to his address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave on or before the 90th day there is no requirement to report. Jomtien is making up rules to fine people. The 20k baht fine would be for a overstay. The max fine for late 90 day reporting is 5000 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retirementenquiry Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 yes i quite agree they are making up rules to fine people but they are enforcing the 15 before 7 days after 90day report even if you take a trip using the re entry permit I just spoke to another friend he did the 15/7 after returning from a short trip to the uk the other case 20k was not over stay he did not do the 90 day had a trip out thought it was a 90 day report he reported 90 days after arriving in the country and was hit for 20k I don't know when they started this scam but it is extortion as i said in my last post i have never being turned over before like this year by these leeches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
