In view of on-going Bangkok Bank problems, I am thinking of opening another account elsewhere. Despite having lived at the same address for over a decade, nothing is in my name. So, how do I prove my address? Is a Thai driving licence sufficient? Seem to recall something about a yellow book. Is that an answer? Something from Immigration, despite them never having visited?
We have many posts from people that have tried to do online 90 day reports that have been rejected. Many times the reason for the rejection isn’t clear or even stated.
The 90 day report system takes your request to file online and routes it to your local immigration office to approve or reject. Like many things in Thailand different offices have different policies.
The two main reasons for a rejection are that you are trying to do your first report online since entering Thailand. It doesn’t matter that you’ve been here for 20 years. If you’ve just returned from a trip abroad and are trying to file online it may be rejected as it’s your “first” report since entering.
The second and possibly the main reason is that the address you are using on your report doesn’t match the address that’s on file for your TM30. Many people I see coming in to the office state that “they’ve been in the same address for X years” so it shouldn’t be an issue. But forget that they stayed in a hotel (or even a hospital) 2 months ago in Samui or Bangkok or Nakon Si Nowhere. The hotel/hospital is obliged to file a TM30 for you and therefore updates your registered address to their location.
As stated its office specific, so one office may approve the filing whereas another will reject it. If rejected you can file a new TM30 online and try again. Perhaps you will need to go to your local office to resolve but almost certainly they will tell you the same thing. The address on file for the TM30 isn’t the same as the address used for the 90 day report.
I am in the process of filing mt DTV application and I have run into a few roadblocks and need some help
Address: I live in a remote part of Alaska and when I put in my Post Office box address and my postal code my town is not included in the list? No what?
Professional portfolio: I own 2 businesses so I want to upload enough proof of the online business. Box 5 (professional portfolio)only allowes me to attach 1 document. How do I attach more than one or attach a file?
Hiring an agent: My first trip to Thailand during covid including the 7+7 program. I hired a agent to do my visa and it was worth it. So has anyone hired an agen?
Sorry guys, I'm a bit confused about the "two addresses" situation.
When I say that my permanent address is not the same as my current one, it offers me add another one.
However they are both called "Home address", and I'm confused about which one should be the one back in my home country, and which one is my place of stay in Cambodia?
The Thai Consulate (e-visa) requested a utility bill or driver's license for address verification to process my DTV. My driver's license is from another state and all the utility bills are in my dad's name.
Does anyone have any experience using alternative documents for address verification?
This is an FYI, and not a question, about something that caught me off guard yesterday. I live in Prachuap Khiri Khan province (Hua Hin) on a non-imm O retirement VISA. Yesterday 2 immigration agents came to my home and said they needed photos of me standing inside and outside of my home. Also, they needed a picture of me standing by my post box. They said it was a new policy from Bangkok immigration. They are verifying addresses last reported on the TM30. I thought this was only done for marriage VISAs. They were pleasant and polite during their visit. Just surprised me.
I'll be going into Jomtien Immigration to apply for a 30 day extension of stay on my visa exempt arrival 6 days ago on a US passport and have the following to show:
1. TM7 Extension of Temporary Stay form -Must include the complete address of your hotel or apartment
1. A copy of your passport ID page
1. A copy of your entry stamp or a copy of your visa, if you entered with one.
1. A copy of your Thailand departure card or TM.6
1. Thai visa extension photo requirements:- 1 passport photo, 4x6cm
1. 1,900฿ fee for extension paid in cash
A.) Am I missing anything?
B.) With regard to #1 above. I went with her to Jomtien immigration to report my address on day 2 which is the condo we live in, and they stapled a piece of paper in the back with the name of the condo in it and an official red stamp. She brought the contract, her ID, etcetera because everything is in her name (contract, all bills and so forth, nothing in mine). Is that paper all I will need to verify my address and that I live there, in order to get the extension?
