What should I do if I wasn't given a TM 6 arrival card and need it for my 90-day extension in Thailand?

May 25, 2024

I just re-entered the country from a trip to the UK. On my way out no one asked for my TM 6 departure card and on the way back I wasn't given an arrival card. When I apply for my next 90 day extension if it is like previous ones I will need to quote the TM 6 number. Any advice on what to do?

TLDR : Answer Summary
After re-entering Thailand, the user is concerned about not receiving a TM 6 arrival card, which they typically need to quote for their 90-day extension application. Community comments clarify that the TM 6 form is no longer required for foreign travelers arriving by air since July 2022. Users advise leaving that field blank on any forms related to the 90-day report or extension applications, and emphasize the importance of reporting arrivals through TM 30. There is some discussion about whether the user meant a 90-day report or an extension, with confirmation that many non-immigrant visas do require reports every three months.

"applying for my next 90 days extension" . . . . . what kind of visa or extension of stay are you on, that you need to apply for "90-days extensions"? Did you mean 90-days reports?

I believe they meant 90 day report too, BUT remember many people on ED visas here only get extensions every 3 months

TM 60 stopped last year.

But you must report your arrival to immigration and present a TM 30 in person or ask your reception to do within 24 hrs of arrival

They dont use them currently . Nothing to be concerned about.

The TM6 form was permanently cancelled for foreign travelers arriving by air since July 2022.

Leave the field blank on the 90 day report form, on the 90 day online or on the TM7 application for extension

Thanks Tod. It was my first trip abroad since before Covid so I was out of the loop.
