I need to renew my US passport this month. While passport is in the process my next 90 day report may be due. Is there a workaround for immigration?

Answer summary
When renewing your US passport while your 90-day report is due, you have several options. If you're worried about timing, some expats report receiving their passports back quickly, while others suggest using the online TM47 reporting system or mailing in your report if your local immigration office allows it. If neither option works out, you can skip the report and file it late after receiving your new passport, paying a 2000 baht fine for the delay. Planning your passport renewal ahead of time might help avoid these complications.

Why did you wait until the last minute is the biggest question.

You put yourself into this position.

With that said..... you can 'skip' your 90 day until you get the new passport and pay the 2k baht fine.

Or.... go to IO and see if they can help.

All of this precludes you doing the 90 day check-in online and bypassing any issues.

I got my US passport back in 21 days door to door. No guarantee yours will be that quick, but if you time it right you may have it before your 90 days is due.

Sadly not really any "work arounds" 😕

You could try the online 90 day reporting web-portal..

OR

If you use an immigration office that allows mail in 90 day reporting (many do, some don't) you could mail in your 90 day report (you need to send it EMS tracked Thai Post, along with a filled out TM47, copies of the data page of your passport, your most recent entry stamp, your current extension, a TM30 receipt, the 90 day report receipt from your last report AND a self addressed stamped envelope so they can mail the new 90 day report receipt back to you..

Other than those two choices (which may or may not work) you just don't do the 90 day report and once you get your new passport back you take both passports to the immigration office to get the extension stamps moved then file a late 90 day report at that time and pay the 2000baht failure to file on time fine..

isn't there a way you can time it so you can do the 90 day report and THEN renew the passport?
