Got a mate who is 4 weeks late on his 90 day reporting. He's going tomorrow. What might he expect? EDIT: This is 90 day reporting as stated before. Not overstay. Read that again. :)

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about their friend's situation regarding being 4 weeks late for their 90-day reporting in Thailand, emphasizing that it is not an overstay. The main response indicates that there is a standard fine of 2000 baht for late reporting, regardless of how long overdue it is. Users also noted the importance of having the address notification confirmed to avoid complications.

Make sure that your buddy's notification of address is confirmed properly and he can prove it.

Last time I went, the officer didn't do his job and I wasn't recorded as reported and I still had to pay the 2000 baht fine. It counted as 3 months of not reporting.

If its for a genuine reason, Ok, if its just cant be arsed then it creates a climate that just makes it difficult for the rest of us who do obey the rules.

His visa did not expire 🤦‍♂️. Shows how much folks pay attention before they open there traps and give inaccurate information for this situation 🤦‍♂️.

What the heck is going on today? OP talks about 90 day reporting and many people comment doomsday scenarios based on overstay. Read. Then comment. Cheers.

something weird going on with Facebook really. I've denied 3 posts today of people that have been in the group for months or years just posting stupid meaningless gifs. Highly unusual

2000 baht fine for late 90 day reporting

Some of you guys need to reread, this isn't an overstay, it's being late for a 90 day report.

its a 2,000 THB fine at immigration

If he has no other business at immigration tell him not to go tomorrow. The fine for being late is 2000 baht whether it's one week late or 6 months late. Just wait until the next time he needs to use immigration and he can pay the fine then.

good idea it's 1900 to get visa extension and a lot of hassle better just pay 2000 when you leave ,only drawback is you might have trouble if you want to return later

@Christopher ******
extension has nothing to do with 90 day report. You should never overstay your visa or extension.

@René *********
you are in Thailand not in Europe! Remember

remember what?

what's done is done. It's already late. Now it's about efficiency.

@Brandon ***********
never to late to show good behavior, 6 months overstay shows only disrespect to Thai law.

@René *********
it's not an overstay... It's a 2000B fine for failing to report, he's incurred it regardless, the penalty doesn't increase. Paying it today or 6 months from now has absolutely zero impact on what immigration think of him.

@Alistair *********
Overstay or not...it is not lawfull. And they stamp in his passport. People like you make a example about bad behaviors of "farangs".
Alistair **********
@René *********
I mean you're comparing overstaying a visa to missing a 90 day report... Which are nothing alike, overstaying can have far worse ramifications, missing his report is a 2000B fine. It's very clearly stated. You pay it when you next report to immigration.

Unless you want to go back in time 4 weeks, he's already missed it. So, all there is to do is pay the fine when he next visits immigration.

@Alistair *********
but he know he is to late and show a lack off responsibility.
Alistair **********
@René *********
going and paying today, doesn't show responsibility. There's isn't a due date listed for the fine. You pay it when you next visit immigration. This is Thailand, not some Western country, they don't care.

90 day report has nothing to do with overstay.
