Hi

I did all my immigration in udon and am on a years visa now. I have to check in at udon immigration every three months.

I am in rawai Phuket now and don’t really want to go back for the 13th May check in.

Can this check be done at Phuket immigration and if so what do I need to take with me. (No longer have support of Thai to come with me and sort out)

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently in Phuket and seeks to know if they can complete their 90-day immigration check-in at Phuket immigration instead of returning to Udon, where their initial immigration was processed. Comments suggest that as long as the user's TM30 form indicates a Phuket address, they are able to file in person at Phuket immigration or online, provided they have completed at least one in-person check-in before. There's a reminder that checks should occur every 90 days, not every three months.

Out of the curiosity; what was the reason you’ve done that n Udonthani at the first place? As of the other’s answers; your first must be in person. I’ve done it myself; yes. I am a Thai but need to do this as the consequences of entering the country with a foreigner’s passport when my Thai’s expired. Long stories but oh well.

BTW; Udonthani is a lovely city, I love my home town.

Ya can't file a 90-days report online unless you have done at least ONE first 90-days report in person.

Only after a first report in person, your data will be in the system.

Some people in FB-groups claim they were able to report their very first 90-days report online.

They obviously missed the small detail that on their last visit on Immigration, their details were entered into the system, and that's why their online report went through

I’ve never been to lang suan, what is there to do in that area

@Eric *********
that's where my Thai brother of another mother is from, he was born in Lang Suan. Which is near Chumpon. Google "Wat Kaeo Prasert" and the surrounding "Scenic Highway". It a pretty nice place

I know that information, I didn’t read in his post that it was his first 90 day report. I just saw he was on a year’s visa.

@Eric *********
him quoting "am on a years visa now" is a strong indication that he has just been issued a fresh 1-year extension of stay 🙂 Isn't English your first language?

@Andreas ********
actually English isn’t my first language. Thanks for your insight

@Eric *********
it's funny, as some very rude guy in this group ran over my mouth for English not being my first language. Afterwards I found out that my command of English is better than his 🤣😂 P.S.: I have by now blocked him

AGREED Paul doesn't indicate this is his first report

@Phil *****
he wrote "I am on a years visa now" . . the wording "now" strongly indicates that his 1-year extension of stay is brandishing new 😎

every 90 days, not 3 months.

I can't share your laughing smiley, because some months have only 28 days, or 29, or 30, or 31 days. Immigration does NOT count in months, they never did. They count by rolling the stamp wheel . . .

You can file in person in Phuket if you have a TM30 that shows a Phuket address. You can also file online.
