ORIGINAL POSTER

For your information Monday July 22nd and Monday July 29th are public holidays so immigration offices will be closed. 

This usually means that on the following Tuesday many offices will be super busy. Avoid going then if you can. 

Land borders and airports are not affected by these closures. 

Plan accordingly.

Truth is nobody knows. It’s all been left in limbo. The media picked up on the fact the cabinet approved the package and portrayed it as being a done deal to go ahead on June 1st. Except that isn’t how stuff works here in Thailand.

The proposals have to pass parliament, then get signed off by the King and are then published in the Royal Gazette.

Until details are published there then they aren’t law and won’t be enacted upon.

There’s a big fat silence from any government department or even press speculation regarding this so it may be one of those hype things that has been swept under the carpet, or it may become law soon.

I’m sorry if this is a repeat question.

Are all retiree visas required to check in every 90 days ?

Next time it will be much better to ask a question in a new thread, to get more and better answers, than if the question is asked in a thread about something completely different.

After you've done your FIRST 90 day Report at your Immigration office, you are then allowed to do it Online for the following reports. I believe each time you leave Thailand and return, it's back to the Immigration office once again for the FIRST 90 day Report. Someone, please correct me if I'm wrong 😀
