TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is concerned about a fine for their expired 90-day report, which was due on May 3. The grace period has expired, and they plan to visit immigration on Monday. Based on comments, it is confirmed that they will have to pay a fine of 2,000 baht regardless of how late they are, as the fine does not increase over time. Several commenters suggest that it's a waste of money and advise using online reporting in the future. Most agree that the best approach is to address the issue as soon as possible.

Well why did you wait . Probably when immigration thinks each time. Lack of focus or respect of the laws you deserve to pay a fine.

 No need to go soon as the fine doesn't increase like an overstay fine does, it's 2000B whenever it is paid

I was 20 days late with my 90 day report. I went 25th December ready to pay 2000 baht. I asked the immigration lady snd smiled "no discount for Christmas"? She gave me 1000 baht back.

Don't worry about it now. Deal with it when you need to use immigration next. If you happen to leave the country then come back in it will re set and they may not notice. It's not the end of the world.

If grace expires today, you'll be paying for sure. Doesn't matter if they're closed all 7 days in that grace period--once it ends, it ends.

 I'm guessing they've maybe had the pattern for 6 years, but you wouldn't be able to go 6 years without paying. It gets flagged on the extension (max of 1 year).

But I've wondered if you could possibly just not do 90-day reports and pay the 2k at extension time with no issues. 🤔

 yes, many people do it that way. They just consider it an extra expense each year.

It's only extensions that have the "holiday" grace period. 90-day reports already have a 7 day grace period built in. After that you pay.

But there's no point in going just to pay. The fine is the same 2000 baht whether it's 8 days late or 8 months late. Just wait until the next time you need to use immigration and pay then. You might save yourself a 90-day report or two.

 yep. 1 day late (after the Grace period) because I made a mistake counting the days : when you enter Thailand they don’t tell you which day you have to report : you have to compute yourself and I made a mistake by 1 day. Now I have this big red stamp in my passport !!

When you extend your visa in country , they want a copy of every stamp in your passport . Including this missed 90 DR stamp I guess .
