Tried to do my 90 day check in online, it was rejected due to me leaving the country. It said I must go in person. I've booked an appointment to try to save some time (its a 2 hour round trip from my house). The earliest appointment is 7 days after my 90th day - 23 September, appointment 29th September. Will I be ok? Or will I be fined? Would it be better to suck it up and go there to queue a few days earlier? What would you do? Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual is concerned about submitting their 90-day report one week late after traveling outside of Thailand, as their online submission was rejected due to the requirement to report in person after leaving the country. Comments from others suggest that as long as they report within a week after the due date, they should not be penalized. They recommend attempting to submit the report on the actual due date or arriving early to avoid fines and ensure all necessary documents are prepared.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Service to get your in-person report done and mailed to you for as low as 375 THB (even if the online system doesn't work for you).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
and I think that the O/P has enough information right now to show up and do her 90 day report 🙂 Thanx one and all for the comments

Why making an appointment just front up after the welcome just say 90 day report, never done online the 5 years I have lived here always front up takes about 10 minutes usually.
is you sure must not use an immigration office that has a lot of people 😮
Many times there are over 100 people in the queue at some offices at 9 in the morning to do 90 day reporting, and the O/P said it's a 2 hour round trip there/back to the immigration office they use) so any way you slice it not all that fun of a day
he'll that's a lot, the only time we have waited longer is when the bus loads of Chinese students are there, I'm not sure how many foreigners are in our area, but the immigration office seems to have it Sussex. Last week there were a few there waiting, lady asked me said 90 day report,gave my passport sat down, immigration officer called me over looked at me said, see you after Oct 05 for new visa application, asked.if any conditions changed since last time , no was the answer. Finished.
When i returned from an overseas trip earlier in the year.. i made sure i noted the revised date for my next 90-day report.. when the date neared i attempted to do it online (about 5 days early) but it was rejected.. so i ended up going in to the immigration office at Central Festival (CM) to do it in person.. upon questioning the officer about my online experience he informed me that if it was the first report after an overseas trip.. then i could only do it online if i submitted it on the actual date it fell due.. and any attempt to file it early or late would be rejected by the system.. so if you are in this situation it may be worth trying to file it online on the actual due date before making a road trip to immigration.. especially if you live a fair distance away from the nearest reporting centre 😉

Don't be late, you will be fined even if only one day late. Be early, report on day 81-90, best early in case need other paper.
Bring everything, including house papers and/or landlord papers (owner I'd, etc), original eVisa, everything. Keep two folders/envelopes, one with papers you think you need, one with everything from first Entry to Thailand. Never know what each immigration person might ask for.
Have photocopies of everything, not all immigration offices will make copies.
Have lots of cash, just in case.
You're lucky, mine is an 8hour round trip by car, at least the small office is pretty fast.

I always register tm30 just prior to doing 90 day report to make sure addresses match up. I have not been rejected in over 2 years.

One other option is to skip 90 day reporting and pay the 2000B fine annually when you get your extension as many do
That’s odd then. When I have had unexplained rejections in the past I just keep resubmitting and it goes through. The only time that I have had repeated rejections is when it’s my first report after an overseas trip

More and more people are getting rejected after returning to the country with the reason; "first report needs to be done in person".
You are allowed to apply in person from two weeks before the due date until one week after the due date without a penalty.
So if you have an appointment on the 7th day after the due date you would be able to file the 90-day report that day and not be fined.
Whether you should slog over there before your appt and wait it out in the queue with the zombie horde is something only you can decide.
