I visited Koh Chang immigration to confirm my 90 days. Officer told me that my 90 d runs from the date I renewed my visa (Jan 30) and not from my last arrival in Thailand (Jan 15). In the past trigger was always based on last arrival date. Is there a change of rule? Thanks for advise.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about the 90-day reporting rule after visiting an immigration office in Koh Chang, where they were informed that the 90 days would start from the date of their visa renewal (January 30) rather than their last entry into Thailand (January 15). This raised questions about potential changes in immigration rules. Responses from the community clarified that when a yearly visa extension is granted, the 90-day reporting date can be reset if a new 90-day report receipt is issued. Users emphasized the importance of checking for this receipt when applying for extensions and mentioned that some immigration offices may have different practices.
