Hi All member's , I want a advice regarding 90 days reporting. I entered in the kingdom on 05 April with sticker visa single entry of 60 days . In between i change my visa in Thailand to Non B and recently got entry till 2 July. So i want to know my 90 days count from 05 April or from the date of Non B visa .

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The 90 days reporting period for a Non-B visa in Thailand does not start until you receive your first extension of stay on that visa. In this case, since the individual entered Thailand on a tourist visa and switched to a Non-B visa, their countdown for the 90-day reporting will begin after their first extension is granted for the Non-B visa.

, your 90 day count down hasn't even started yet, it doesn't count on tourist visas or extensions and only starts AFTER you get the first extension on a Non-Immigrant Type visa <- which you don't have yet.

I think once you get your extension they will put a paper in your passport like this telling you when your first 90 day report is due

IF you are unsure, stop by the immigration office that you use and ask them BUT I believe the information I gave you is correct..

Just curious, why didn't you ask them at the Chonburi immigration office when you went in and applied for the Non-B visa, OR two weeks later when you went back and got the 90 day Non-B inked into your passport?

Nope in my passport only a 1900 B visa change fee is attached only.

You are not on any extension of stay yet and your first extension counts as "starting" the 90 day report clock. <- that's why it's only when you get your FIRST extension that they put that paper in your passport that states when your first 90 day report is actually due
