Is there a grace period for the 90-day immigration report if I leave Thailand shortly after my 90-day period?

I understand that the 90 day (report) notification must be made either no earlier than 15

days before or no later than 7 days after the 90 day period expires.

If one leaves Thailand, let´s say 3 days after the end of the 90 day

period...and returns 4 weeks later to Thailand letting the 90 day period

restart from 0...is there then no need to make the notification before

the departure since it would be still within the 7 day period?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user asks whether they need to file a 90-day report before leaving Thailand if they depart just days after the 90-day reporting period ends and plan to return later. The comments clarify that there is no 'grace period' for the notification; the 90-day report must be filed during the designated window of 15 days before to 7 days after the 90-day period, regardless of any subsequent travel.

Nope, 😮 Doesn't work that way. 😕

That isn't a "grace period" where if you leave during that time you don't have to apply

The window of opportunity to file a 90 day report in person is from 2 weeks before the due date until 1 week after.

The rule is clear, spend 90 continuous days inside thailand (on a visa/extension that requires it) and you have to file a 90 day report.

Now after I parroted the way it is supposed to be I will say, IF you go to leave without having done a 90 day report NOTHING will happen to you when you stamp out of thailand or when you stamp back in 😮 those officers at passport control don't care in the least if you EVER filed a 90 day report or not, all they do is stamp you out and in

When you go for the next 90 day report (due 89 days from the date you stamp back in) there IS a small chance they see that you left AFTER your previous report was due and they could fine you, BUT the most that can ever be is 2000baht. So if they caught you left after a report was due they could fine you before they let you do the next report but it's a small chance

I will leave it to you to decide your course of action and please note I am not advocating that you don't file, just telling you how it works if you decide not to

What happens if I stay in Thailand for 96 days but leave within the 7-day reporting window?
