Do I need to file a 90-day report (TM47) if I have a 60-day COVID extension in Thailand?

Okay, this is how it SEEMS to be working.

For people who have been here since BEFORE the lock down last March and who got amnesty, then embassy letter extensions then 60 day covid extensions it SEEMS like the immigration office is making people who have been here 90 days on an extension for the same REASON (ข้อ 5 <- clause 5) do 90 day reports.

CHECK WITH YOUR IMMIGRATION OFFICE when you get your next covid extension (and really check with the people who really do 90 day reporting at your office NOT the passport stamping paper pushing wingnut who just did your covid extension :O )

I was just looking in to this. KPNG immigration has been staffed from Surat Thani not Samui. Surat Thani is the primary office in that province. You need to report every 90 if in the Kingdom more than 90 days. Although they'll see you again in 60 days, you cant report 90 day report then as you can only do this 15 days before or 7 days after. Atleast you have a local immigration office now.

You do what your Thai immigration office requires.

First off whether you believe it to be redundant or not doesn't factor into the equation. :O

I stopped looking for logic here a LONG time ago and suggest you do the same. ;)

Second, whether an office requires or doesn't require a 90 day report seems to be totally up to that individual office

So I'd suggest that next time you go for a covid extension you ask the officer giving it to you whether you need to file a 90 day report or not.

Believe me that's not a cop out answer from me that's me telling you with over 70 immigration offices in the country it comes down to each offices policy :/
