Topic: Transfer from old to new passport + 90 days
Good evening ladies and gents,
* I recently (Friday 8 March) transferred my visa extension from my old passport to my new passport at Chaengwattana Immigration.
* I got told to head to my local immigration in April with the TM47 document to renew my 90 days.
*My days 90 expires on 16 April.
My eventual problem:
* I am flying out on Sun 7 April and returning to Thailand on Fri 19 April.
My questions:
* Do I need to head to my local immigration before flying?
* What is the correct procedure to do this?
* How to avoid penalties?
I know it is maximum 14 days prior or 7 days after due date but feel like this process might be slightly different from what I am used to. I feel like I might have to go twice. Once before flying, and once after flying. Or is this not necessary? I don't wanna end up paying a 2k fine.
Thank you in advance for your wise and helpful comments!
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user recently transferred their visa extension to a new passport and is concerned about their upcoming travel plans. They need to report their 90-day stay before a scheduled flight out of Thailand and want to avoid penalties. Comments clarify that since the user is departing before the 90-day report due date, there is no need to visit immigration before leaving, and they can complete the report upon returning to Thailand.
