90 day reporting

[mmmarcus]

Hey

I have been looking trough some post here but still not 100% clear.

1.How do you recommend doing the 90 days reporting? By mail or in person?

2.If I go in person WHAT is needed? Do I need to bring my original passport then as well? Problem is that my passport is gonna be an embassy for visa. 
So I wanna take all the copies of the passport I need before going to the embassy?

3.If i entered Thailand 21 Mars, do I need to go to the office/send the letter 15 days before 21 june?

 

4.If I choose the mail option, I guess that the info here is correct: http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004/en/base.php?page=90days

 

Thanks alot!

1. It depends upon how far you live from the immigration office you report to and how busy the office is that your report to. Both are good.

2. You need your passport (copies will not be accepted) and completed TM47 form to do it in person.

3. If you entered on the March 21st your report would be due on the June 18th. You can report in person up to 15 days before the report date or 7 days after. By mail it has to received by immigration 7 days before the report date.

4. Correct if mailing it to Bangkok immigration.

Any particular reason as to why you need to produce your original passport when you apply in person but can use copies if you do the report by post?

The original passport is needed for anything you do at immigration.

They would not expect you to mail your passport for a report since you are required to have it with you.

Thanks a lot! I'll buy you a beer if I ever get a chance hehe. Persons like you deserve all respect. 

1.If I mail it in today or tomorrow I should be all right then. Even if you mean working days, mail only takes 2-3 days within Bangkok I guess.

 

2. Just saw that there is no form here: http://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/download/tm47.doc

(From http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004/en/base.php?page=90days) 

 

But found it here: http://www.immigration.go.th/nov2004/download/tm47.doc
 

I guess that's the one? But how the h*ck am I gonna fill that one in, looks super weird in Microsoft Doc.

Found that one, is that one OK?

 

3.ubonjoe: I saw in another thread that you said you add stamps at a value of 40 baht because instead of a 10 baht stamp? Is that recommended? I figure its better to put like 50 baht to be safe?

 

4. In the form it asks for "arrival card #" now can I know what one? I only have the depature card left obviously.

4. I can't see where their post mailing address is? Anyone knows?

1. If you send it registered mail it might take more than 2 or 3 days but it is the postmark date on it that counts. It is 15 calendar days before.

2. You could also use this one. TM47 Form Fillable.pdf

3. I put 40 baht to have it sent back by EMS. The base fee for a EMS is 37 baht. I do that because I don't like waiting for it to show up. A also send it by EMS instead of registered mail (not worried about the 20 baht extra to do it).
