90 day reporting experience - Pai

I brought:

Passport

Tm30

Tm47

Waited 5 min, the officer asked for my passport, whipped out a tm47 with my information filled out somehow (?), didnโ€™t ask to see the two forms I brought. Super easy. Next up: residency certificate and Thai driver license๐Ÿ˜Ž

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user shares a positive experience with the 90-day reporting process in Pai, Thailand. They reported that the process was quick and easy, requiring only their passport and TM30, despite bringing additional documents like TM47. A commenter shared a similar swift experience in Hua Hin, stating that the immigration officer only needed their original passport and TM30 copy, without checking other documents. Another commenter expressed surprise that the TM47 was pre-filled for the original poster, highlighting an ease in the procedure.

Similar experience in Bluport Hua Hin today. I brought originals and photocopies of all these:

- passport and entry stamps

- TDAC

- DTV visa

- TM30

- rental contract

- filled out TM47

All the officer wanted is my original passport and copy of TM30. She didn't even look at the others documents or ask for anything. Not even TM47. (I want to add that I tried to do TM47 online last week but was rejected because of first 90 day report since entry, so maybe they had the TM47 data in their system already).

Everything took less than 5 minutes ๐Ÿ‘
