What steps do I need to take to complete my 90-day reports while staying in Phuket with a non-O retirement visa?

An alternative to consider if your immigration office in Isaan allows it is to simply do mail-in 90-Day Reports with that office, or online reports (if the server is back in service by that time). That way you completely avoid doing any business with Phuket Immigration while you are here.

Suggestions. It is a whole lot easier if your landlord takes care of the address registration (TM-30) for you. It's really their responsibility to do this. The process makes it easier for them to do this than for you to do this (for example, a power of attorney and tax stamps are not needed if the landlord acts for themselves rather than having you act for them).

But many landlords like to shirk this responsibility. In that case, you will need signed copies of documents from your landlord:

Signed Copy of Land owner ID card/passport

Signed copy of house book

Signed copy of rental agreement or land owner company paper if applicable.

If any of that is a problem for your landlord, seek another landlord. There are thousands of rental opportunities in Phuket, you don't need the hassle of dealing with a recalcitrant landlord. A landlord who doesn't assist a tenant with living in his rental legally is not someone you want to do business with.

At the moment this may not be possible because of server maintenance issues, but it would be in both you and your landlords' interests for him to register you online (explained at item 2 at

You can also do your 90-Day Report online (may currently not be able to because of the server being down). Barring that you can use the drive through at Phuket Town Immigration to do your 90-Day Report.

From the excellent website maintained by the Phuket Immigration Volunteers:

File a change of address for (TM28) AND either you or your land lord file a TM30 (notification of foreigner in residence) at the main immigration office in Phuket. That should get you registered in the system as residing in an area served by that office and you should be able to do your 90 day reporting there when it is due.

Once you get there, GO to the immigration office and see what you need to get those two things filed OR post on a f/b page dedicated to Phuket and ask there.
