ORIGINAL POSTER

Good afternoon. All of a sudden I'm getting nervous. I returned from a holiday to the UK 10th October, my 90 day  report was on the 12th October. I'm under the impression I have 90 days from my return date before I need to do a 90 day report. Please tell my assumption is correct. Otherwise I'm in for one heck of a fine. Many thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

When returning to Thailand after a holiday, your 90-day reporting period resets. You need to count 90 consecutive days from your return date for the next report. The fine for late reporting is not as severe as initially feared, generally around 500 baht per day.

Thank you so much. I thought that was the case, but I was having a moment. I thought the fine was 500 baht per day.

are you certain about that because the on line system has recorded my status normal even though I have been in the UK for 4 months.

the online system has no idea where you are. It's not linked to any other systems.

exactly, because it had no idea where you are. The system is set to send an email after a certain number of days. It doesn't know if you're inside or outside of Thailand, it just knows xx days have passed since your last report.

A 90 day report is to report when you've been in Thailand for 90 consecutive days. If you leave Thailand you're not in Thailand for 90 days.

When you return your start counting from day 1 again because it's only consecutive days.

What should I do about my 90-day report for my retirement visa if I return to Thailand later?
