90 day reports with a DTV. I want to share my experience so that others may learn from it.

1. You must do your 90 day report in the province that your TM-30 address is located.

2. You have to do your report in person if you hold a DTV. There are no options for online filing, unless you have done the 6 month extension in country without leaving to reset the visa. I will explain this more below.

I recently needed to do my 2nd 90 day report while holding a DTV in Thailand. I read that after the first report in person you may submit the following reports online. This is true, however the count of reports submitted resets after every new arrival in the country. As a DTV holder, I leave every 6 months for a period of time so I will never have a 2nd 90 day report on one visit into Thailand. The 7 day grace period covers any "tight" timelines on having to do a 2nd 90 day report in 6 months.

I was traveling visiting some friends during my last reporting window and submitted online, only to be rejected. I visited the local immigration facility and it was explained to me that I needed to do the report where I live only. They were very nice and calmed my fears of problems with immigration by helping me understand the 7 day grace period after the 90 days in country that you have to file. I was home before that time was expired so everything worked out fine.

I just wanted to help anyone else that might not have gone through the 90 report process yet. Because of the slight pain of the process in my busy area now that it is high season, I might consider one of those do it for you visa services to file my next 90 day report, if they don't charge too much.

I know for the first 90 days report, you’re supposed to go physically to immigration.

HI. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I tried 90-day check-in online for the first time, and immediately got an e-mail saying: “We have received your information successfully” along with completed form for alien to report staying beyond 90 days. (O retirement.) So my question is: Is this process is now instant? (In the past I’ve seen people in this group saying they are waiting for approval.) Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using the IMM eService App to do my 90 day report. So far it’s always been approved within 24 hours and i was able to print ouf a PDF with the next appointment date but I keep seeing people using a *new* website, so now I’m confused, should I keep using the app or should I switch to the website? Thanks!

Online report for staying more than 90 days is not working for me. I flew to the US and returned July 10. Therefore I have a new TM6. Will I need to apply in person at immigration???

For those of you in Phuket wanting to do a 90 day report, the online system is down so you have to go in person. Because the system is down the drive through window is closed. You need to go to room 101 to report (left hand side behind the stairs). Be aware that they will want you to fill in the TM47 form and have copies of your passport data page, visa stamp, last entry stamp and the TM6 departure card. No idea how long the system will be down for.

Hi, guys.

For many years I have done my 90-day reporting by post but this month I missed the deadline for sending.

I tried the online reporting which was quite easy.

My question is, after 24 hours my

application still says pending.

Is this normal and how long does it take to clear?

Cheers!
