What is the best time to visit the immigration office in Bangkok for my first 90-day report?

Best time is to pay an agent, leave the country, or go before 8 am. You'll be done before 12.

Midweek. 8am or when it opens.

Never on a Monday and also not on a Friday!

everything you need to know is described in detail on this Immigration website:

If you're still at least 15 days out from due date do it by mail. Absolutely best way to do it in Bangkok. CW is a bloody day's hike!

1 hour before they close

I like to go in the afternoon since I’m not a morning person

1300-1600 is the best time for me

You can't do it by mail on your first report. You have to go in person. Do it as early as possible and hope to get lucky and be done by noon.

In Bangkok do it by mail. So easy from your local post office. Don't waste a day trekking out to Chaengwatthana just for the 90-dayer
