I arrived on 12/28 under 60 day tourist visa, and got my education visa stamp on 2/4. Is my 90 day reporting from 12/28 or 2/4? Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The 90-day reporting period starts from the date you receive your first visa that allows you to stay in Thailand for more than 90 days. Since you're currently on a 60-day tourist visa, you don't need to do a 90-day report until you receive your first extension or a visa that permits longer stays, such as an education visa extension.

Like Charles said, you so far have not had a visa that lets you stay in Thailand more than 90 days, so you haven't needed to do a 90 day report. When you get your first ED extension is when it starts as that will be the first chance you'll have had to officially be in the country on an extension over 90 days. They will give you the slip of paper then that will tell you when your next 90 day report is.

Possibly neither... Did you get the slip telling you when to report?

I came in visa visa exempt and then inked ED in at div 1. I did not start the 90 day reporting period until my first extension of the ED. This is when I got the white slip of paper from. Immigration telling me when first report was due.

This was confirm with Todd too, as it confused me.

yes. Wait until the slip! That's your date!

No, 90 days is for long term non immigrant visas only.

my stamp is for less than 90 days and I need to go back in may 4th. So I assume every time I go to immigration to get a new stamp, it's resetting the 90 days as well?
