Hello all I am a bit confused please help my upcoming trip.

When entering for the first time do we have to report to immigration before 90 days then do a border run or do we have to do a boarder run before 90days then report when we re-enter?
Answer summary
When entering Thailand with a DTV visa, you are not required to report to immigration if your stay is less than 90 days. If you remain in Thailand for 90 consecutive days, you must report to immigration at the office where your TM30 registration is filed. You can choose to leave before the 90-day mark without a report, and each departure resets your stay. After the initial report, the requirement for stamping every 180 days or additional 90-day reporting may depend on future stays.

If you stay 90 consecutive days in Thailand on your DTV then you will be required to report that fact to the immigration office that your TM30 is filed at.

If your stay is less than 90 days, you are not required to report.

The TM30 is the registration of a foreigner in residence at whatever property you’re staying at, and is required to be filed within 24 hours of your arrival at that property.

Only do 90 days report if you've stayed for 90 days

If you leave before 90 days you don’t need to report.

Each time you leave it re sets.

But you can do a 90 day report , then stay another 90days before you need to do a border run or stamp extension
