First 90 day report question: I just arrived in BKK, My tm30 is registered to my apartment in BKK. Can I do my 90 day report in person at Immigration in Chiang Mai? Or do I have to show up at immigration in BKK? I won’t be able to get an appointment In BKK before I go to Chiang Mai and i sure as hek don’t want to be there without an appointment. Can I do it in Chiang Mai? Or should I just take the 2k fine next time I have to file? Of course I want to respect all rules, but sometimes there are circumstances where you have to find a solution. Thank you. 🙏

Just renewed my passport to a new one. My retirement visa (Non-IMM O) also need to be extended next month.

Can I do these two tasks at the same time

1. transfer visa to new passport, and

2. extend visa in the new passport

Or I have to do it in two trips to immigration office.

Thanks to advise and share your experience

Can somebody clarify - I have only been here for 70 days and cannot file a 90 day report.

In order to get a Thai drivers license am I required to have a 90 day report?

My research shows that I need

1. Residency certificate.

2. Valid IDP and US drivers license

3. Medical Certificate

4. TM 30

I want to get it done ASAP and I was planning on leaving prior to my 90 day report anyway for a weekend Vietnam trip.

Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me if, after extending a marriage visa, the next 90-day report date is recalculated from the date the extension was granted?

I tried submitting my 90 day report online, but it was rejected. At first, I read that it might be because I recently extended my visa, so the next 90 day report should be counted from that new date.

Later, I received an email from Immigration saying the rejection was due to “missing information.” So now I’m not sure whether to try submitting it again or just wait and count a new 90 day period from the visa extension date.

Hi .. I have been coming in to Thailand on a visa exempt ( 60 days) . Each time , my stay duration is from a week to 45 days . Never overstayed . I will be applying for a non O ( 3 months + 12 ) and bank account using an agency in Bangkok the next time I fly into Thailand . However , that would be my 7 visa exempt entry this year , and slightly less than 180 days in total . I was told I would not be allowed in . Can anyone confirm this? I have also bought return tickets which i won’t be using once my non O is finalized . Can someone who has experienced going into Thailand more than 6 times in a year , tell me their experience and how I should deal with it .

Stamp on DTV visa looks incorrect.

I arrived on July 16, 2025 on a DTV visa. The stamp expiry in my passport is November 11, 2026?

With a DTV it’s 180 days at a time and the DTV visa is valid 5 years, so the stamp confuses me and I’m concerned it will affect my 90 day reporting.

Also, if there are any agencies that offer 90-day reporting service, let me know. Might be smoother if stamp is incorrect.

I am currently in Thailand on a non o-a visa through Jan 2026. Instead of renewing that in January I would like to get a non o visa. I was told at immigration that my options are to leave the country and return on a tourist visa and then apply for the non o, or leave the country and get the non o while out of the country. How difficult/quick would it be to get the non o in one of the nearby countries? I suspect it wouldn't be very quick. I got my non o-a visa totally online prior to coming to Thailand so maybe that's an option? The reason I'd like to come in on the non o is that I was told that the 800k bank funding has to be from an international transfer if I get the visa in country but if I come in with the visa already the bank funding can be from any source (existing money for example. That's not too big of a deal but wanted to see if you guys had any suggestions. Thanks!

I submitted the TM30 online a month ago. However, the website says you can only pull up the forms for 7 days after submission. How does one get a copy for 90 day reporting?

Can someone who has been through the process explain more about the soft visa activities?

Where would I find more information about them and the courses? Would it apply to children as well or can they be attached to the parent visa?
