When is the due date for my 90-day report after re-entering Thailand on a Non-O retirement visa?

@Michael *******

Yep I said it’s nice but not very helpful.

Who can use a calendar can count the weeks or days too ;)

@Robert *******

What office? Sounds like one of the rogue South Island ones that are known to be a bit “creative” with rules.

@Stuart ********

Sorry but I know what happened.

I had a reminder for the extension 5 days ahead. Went there and the officer said I had not done the 90 days, pointed to the paper at the end of my passport and said 17 days, 8500 baht. After that he asked me the remaining papers.

And I don’t wonder. It was the boss of the office. After I didn’t send 65k every month but sometimes more sometimes less, he said he could manage the 800k, he could do that for me for 25k.

@Robert *******

1900 baht is for an extension. The 8500 baht would be because you were late applying for the extension, not that you were late for doing a 90 day report.

@Stuart ********

Ok. Then that officer got me.

About 2 years ago I totally forgot about the 90 days and had only a reminder for the extension. When I went there the officer counted 17 days and asked for 8500. (I got a receipt for only 1900 now that I looked in my papers, yes).

@Robert *******

You’re confusing overstating a visa/entry stamp with a late filing of a 90 day report.

Overstay is 500 baht per day. Late filing of a a 90 day report is 2,000 baht regardless of when you next file.

@Stuart ********

1. Has that changed? When I ran into it I had to pay 500 per day.

2. There still is the odd officer telling ppl that they have to pay more. ;)
