Hi. I entered Thailand on an OA e-visa from the UK in 5 Sept. I don’t know if I needed to but I registered a TM30 for the year at my house in Samui. I am trying to find out: (a) do I need to do 90-day address reports at Immigration? (b) what can I renew this OA for next year? I am diligently moving > THB65k each month to my Bangkok Bank account from the UK using Swift so I will meet any financial requirements in Thailand. Thanks for the advice.

The new Koh Phangan Immigration Office opened today!

But it seems, for limited services only:

- extensions of short-term visas incl. 60-day covid extensions, but apparently not for long-term visas incl. ED visas, Smart visas (I heard about both cases) and I guess not for Non-O, Non-OA and Business visas neither (no confirmation yet)

- 90-day address reporting, but a completed TM47 is required (available there), not just the passport like in Koh Samui

- notification of residence (I guess that's address changes, but not sure)

Also, they seem to enforce the "dress politely" rule a bit more than in Koh Samui Immigration, which basically means no tank tops (showing shoulders) and no shorts. I heard of one lady who was sent home to dress up, but I also saw others in tank tops and very short shorts there.

There is a photocopy service on-site, but no option to take passport photos. Different TM forms are freely available and can be taken from drawers.

There is a strange confusion that people who went there for 60-day covid extensions were apparently told that they would need to do 90-day address reportings as well (everyone knows that it doesn't make sense, no need to point it out any further), the first time in person with a TM47 form and from then on possible to do online. I guess it comes back to "things in Thailand don't need to make sense, every Immigration Office invents their own rules". 😆

All in all, good to have this office open now, but not that useful for everyone. I fear that I still need to do Koh Samui trips for my own Non-O retirement extensions in the future. Oh boy... ⛴️
