TLDR : Answer Summary

The one year reporting process at OSOS for the Long Term Resident visa (LTR) is generally considered straightforward. Most users report that it involves simply visiting the local immigration office and informing them of the reporting. However, challenges may arise if the office is unfamiliar with the visa type. Additionally, it is noted that if the holder has left the country and re-entered, their reporting year resets.

You walk into your local immigration office and tell them you’re doing your one year report. If, like me, they’ve never seen that visa before it’ll take a few extra minutes. Done. Of course if you’ve left the country and returned your year resets so you may never set foot in an immigration office again.

Although to be clear, I’ve never stayed in Thailand for a year consecutively. I’ve always taken vacations to neighboring countries so I guess I’ve never actually done a one-year report. But local immigration put a date card in the back of my passport so I showed up before that date and all they did was give me a new date card, one year out from my latest entry which rendered the previous date card out of date.

Sorry..., to be clearer: LTR - (Long Term Resident visa). Established by the BOI at the OSOS office in Bangkok. Thanks for your feedback, Guys.

So you have an LTR visa but didn't do your year check in at the LTR office? You did it at your local office?

That had to be a comedy of errors seeing as immigrations doesn't fool with LTR's as they're run by the BOI 🙁

Long Term Retirment Visa. Same acronym.

no, it is retirement visa. Not long term retirement visa (Non-O or OA) ...or long term visa (Non-O/A/X). LTR is completely didifferent.That is the problem with calling it something other than what it is.

Do I only need to do 90-day reporting after obtaining a Non OA 1-year visa in Thailand?
