Do you get a fine if you don't submit your 90 days report with a DT visa? And if yes, where do you pay it?

Which immigration office is best to go to for 90 day notification in Bangkok? Thanks!

Hi, my first 90 report is due end September based on TM30 showing rented apartments in BKK.

I bought a villa in Hua Hin and should have the yellow book mid August.

I aim to wait until I have the yellow book then re apply the TM30 showing HH address for the 90 day report.

Am I missing anything for this simple move to make it easy at immigration

So I left Thailand and reentered on my DTV back in April. Today I went to report my address for the 90 day report.

Had all my documents in order (or so I thought).

I did not know you needed a TM30 for each time you exit and reenter Thailand. Immigration official’s smile immediately fades when she looks me up in the system and asks why my TM30 is dated for July and not April.

Well, “There was a typo in my name”, I said.

She said, “No, where is your TM30 for April. You only have two TM30s. Where is owner. Charge ฿1600. Contact owner right now. Do not leave. You call I speak to owner.”

Condo Owner: not responding to texts or calls

Me: the genius who left his wallet back at the condo, because, “Oh, immigration is just a short stroll to the beach, I’ll be in and out.”

Currently sitting here hoping they’ll let me return with the money. Each time they ask for owner, they just get angrier and angrier. Dear God

Update: They let me come back with the money. Got my receipt and I swear to God I’ll never make that mistake again 🤣

Hi all, I’m on a retirement visa and my first renewal date is 22nd Sept 2025. I’ve been doing my 90 reporting online but my next one I’d due 15th Sept only a week before my visa renewal. Can I just renew my non O visa early instead of doing the 90 day report?

Also, do I need the same documents for the renewal as when I first applied for my retirment visa, including the bank document showing the 800k came from the UK or is that not necessary anymore just 12 months statements? TIA

90 days report discoveries that cost me 4,000 baht and many wasted hours:

1. Even if you have yearly rental contract and the owner filled up TM.30 when you moved with expire date all the way to the next 12 months IF you get out of the country it’s not valid anymore. Every time you enter Thailand you need to do TM.30 address report again. Ignore that the existing TM.30 “check out date: 30.12.2025” - they don’t accept it and treat as non existent.

The punishment: 1600 baht and need to bring them copies of full rental contract + id of owner + house book.

(collecting rent documents is much bigger punishment).

2. You can do the 90 days report 14 days before the date and 7 days after. Each late day is 500 baht, maximum 2000 baht.

If you will come on the 8th day they treat it as you late 8 days and not 1 days late. Even if you have Documentation of ER stay due to a car accident on these weeks - won’t help. Punishment: 2000 baht, very long queue to pay it and airport officers asking extra questions due to fine stamp on the passport.

In short: every time you fly into Thailand, you need to ask for TM30 even if you’re on yearly contact and even if you left Thailand only for 24 hours. Don’t wait for last moment to do the 90 days report, you never know maybe a pickup truck will crash into you in the exact day you planned to do the report.

Yikes 😬

I was late submitting the 90-day report, overdue by just 7 days. Will I be fined?

When is the "best" time to go to the immigration office for my first 90 day report, with the understanding that there is never actually a good time to go? 😂 Weekday morning, I presume? I'm in Bangkok.

How does the 90 day work while you constant on the move - so basically - every day or week stay in another hotel/place?

Does the reception need to give me the tm30 or something else?

We have a dtv already for a year and it works easy with a rentalcontract. Now, we are moving soon for the rest of the 4 year that is left from place to place.

Thanks.

How long to wait after a 90 day report to Chaengwattana by post before worrying?

It's now been a month since they received my report. No confirmation yet.

And does the online 90 day report system update for postal reports to show the report has been approved?

I really, really don't want to spend a day to/from Immigration to sort this out.
