What should I do if my 90-day report is getting rejected online and do I need a TM30 for in-person filing?

Simpler to pay the 2000 baht fine on renewal of visa I'm starting to think?

The 90 day report system is linked in with the TM30 system. Depending on the office your report gets sent to it could be rejected as an “address mismatch”. Many people say that “I’ve been here for X years and have never changed address”. That could be true but the TM30 system always has your latest filing and that could be the issue. If you’ve stayed in a hotel for a night the hotel would have filed a TM30 for you that supersedes your home address, a night in a hospital would do the same.

Some offices don’t care and will see the previous filing of your actual address and accept the 90 day report. Others will reference the last filing and if it differs from what you submitted on your 90 day report will reject it.

To mitigate the chances of a rejection then always make sure you do a “fresh” TM30 filing before you file your 90 day report.

My last 90 day online report got rejected. I had to do it in person. They told me my TM30 wasn't up to date (seeing as I hadn't done one in a number of years). They still allowed the 90 day report but told me I needed the TM30 done for next time. (@ Bangkok imm)

A TM30 receipt is not mandatory in Bangkok when you submit 90-day report in person.

But bringing current TM30 receipt can help you to check what's the problem to report online.

You need: your passport, the last 90-day report receipt if you haven't left Thailand since then, TM6 if you have. Fill TM.47 form there.
