Last week, I received practical advice from a couple of members here, so I thought I would share my experience with my first in-person 90-day report at Chiang Mai Immigration. I hope this information helps anyone who may need it in the future.

You only need to pull up your car to the drive-thru window, submit a completed TM47, a TM30 issued by your landlord (if you are a tenant), and your passport. It's free of charge, and it only took me two minutes. I drove away with my passport and a receipt of notification.

Before going, I didn't have a TM47 form with me, so the officer gave me a blank TM47 during the first round and told me to drive out, fill in the form, and come back to the line. The 90-day report drive-thru at Chiang Mai Immigration Office has two windows: one for drivers in automobiles and another for applicants on foot.

I’ll be coming to Thailand in the 90 day visa with plans to then apply for the non-o retirement visa.

I’ll need to open a bank account and deposit the 800,000 Baht.

How do I open a bank account without a permanent Thailand address?

Questions regarding non o thai spouse yearly extension at Changwatanna office.

Last time I collected extension after consideration period, proof of 400k in bank wasn't required, is this still correct?

Can letter from Bank showing balance and statement bè processed the day before applying? I know bankbook must be updated same day.

Have switched to condo lease and have tm30 from owner. Does wife still need tabien bahn shown + copy? Don't live there now. And is original lease need to be shown or just copy?

Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently in Chiang Mai and have two months left on my Non-O retirement visa. Two months ago, I moved to a new condo, and my landlord provided me with a new TM30 already.

Do I need to take any action regarding my visa due to this change of address? My 90-day report is also due next week, and I'm wondering if not reporting my change of address before my 90-day reporting or Non-O renewal will cause any issues with the Chiang Mai office.

Thank you very much for your input!

Hello everyone!

My dad, after hiring an agent, he has just returned to Thailand from Vietnam and was stamped with a non-o visa. His plan is to do the retirement extensions every year.

I'd love to hear about other's experiences with getting the residence certificate to sign up for a thai bank account and the process of applying for the retirement extension. Was the process easy? I'm looking for advice from people that didn't use an agent.

For the 90 day report, what do you do/what address do you report if you don’t really have one? I’m traveling around not really staying put anywhere long term until after the new year. I’ll likely be in Pattaya when my 90 days comes up…

For 90 day report, do we need the printed TM30 form? Or is it enough that our landlord filed it?

Hey everyone. I'm doing my retirement visa renewal this Tuesday at the Jontiem office. I have all the documents but here is the question. My leasing agent gave me a copy of the owners passport for the condo. Now should there be lines on it and his signature? This copy is just the passport photo page no lines or signature. Thanks

Hello. I wanted to ask about extending a DTV visa.

I understood that you need to present ALL the documents that were initially presented when first got the visa,

only now the updated ones. So I wanted to ask:

1. Do you need to bring everything printed there (pay slips, bank balance, employment letter from the employer, etc.) including the translation of the documents into Thai ?!

It's at least 40 pages for me...

2. Some people said that you most present them a place of permanent residence or a house contract ?!

I travel and move from place to place, can I present just the TM30 from the hotel where I am staying at the time ?

3. When is the optimal time to do the extension ? 1 week before DTV expires, ok ?

Thank you all, have a nice day !

First time online 90 day report questions. The date on my slip is 25 July. What are the window of dates when I can submit my online [what is the website address] reporting? Additionally I've read here and elsewhere it's a bit tricky to do the first time. Can anyone please provide any tips or suggestions to make this initial attempt happen smoothly and efficiently? Thanking all in advance for your support and sharing of previous experiences. Sincerely, MG
