Can my wife submit my 90-day report at immigration on my behalf?

90-day report visa regulations Non O visa Thailand immigration TM47 form TM30 passport submission

ORIGINAL POSTER

My first 90 day report after returning from a trip overseas on 31 December 2024 is due on 30th March. I have tried to submit online but as expected every submission online has been rejected with the reason “For first-time requests of a 90-day notification in each country visit, in-person presentation at the immigration office is required.”

My question is can my wife take my passport, completed and signed TM47 form, TM30 copy, copy of passport pages ( photo page, entry stamp, stay extension stamp and original Non O visa copy) and submit on my behalf or do I need to attend in person? I made an appointment for 27th March anticipating rejection of online submission but I would prefer not to go myself as my mobility isn’t great.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is inquiring if their wife can submit their 90-day report to the immigration office in Thailand on their behalf due to mobility issues. The consensus from commenters is that it is permissible for the wife to submit the necessary documents (TM47 form, passport, etc.). No Power of Attorney is required, and the original passport along with the completed TM47 form is sufficient for the submission.

What office do you use, because in Bangkok you just need the passport and TM47 (the TM30 should be in your passport anyway)

You don't need any of those copies of anything else

There is no issue at all doing 90 day reports for someone else or having someone do yours for you

Passport filled out TM47 is all you need

I've always struggled with this interpretation.. because having someone else deliver documentation to immigration on your behalf is clearly not 'reporting in person' at all.. and given Thai immigration has such rigid antiquated procedures for just about everything else.. I'm surprised they allow it.. but then again TiT as they say!

Yes, a 90-day report can be done by your wife with your original passport and required documents at your local immigration office. No problem. No POA is required.

Do I need to apply for the 90-day report in person, or can I apply online?
