Hello.

I had a none o visa that I extended by means of a re entry permit when I left Thailand 2 months ago.

That gave me to the original 90 day entry stamp 6th August.

Now I’m back in Thailand, my employer has changed my flight to leave after this date now.

Can I extend my stay at immigration?

I don’t want a 7 day overstay stamp TBH.

For Americans living in Thailand…how does $3000 USD/month equate in Thailand? Not conversion to bahts but $3k in America is like living on how much USD in Thailand? That make sense? Does it feel like I have $5-6k in Thailand? 🤷

We're here until October on a tourist visa will then complete DTV in australia before returning.

How have others transitioned their travel insurance? Do we need to cancel our normal policy and transition to expat insurance?

For context we are 31 and 32 with a 2.5 year old.

We've got a 12 month lease and car here. From australia.

⛔️⛔️90 Day Reporting (TM47) process⛔️⛔️

Yes, it is *compulsory* to have a TM30 form during the 90-day reporting (TM47). After completing TM47 reporting, the officer will give you a stamped paper confirming that the 90-day report was submitted on time. Please keep this paper safely along with your passport.

🍀🍀TM47 – 90-Day Reporting:

👉You can report 15 days before or up to 7 days after your 90-day period ends.

👉This gives you a 22-day window to report.

👉If you miss this period, you will have to pay a fine.

🍀🍀For DTV Holders:

You must go to the Chaeng Watthana Immigration Bureau for 90-day reporting. Here’s how to get there:

Option 1: By BTS + MRT (Train)

1. Take the BTS Green Line to Wat Phra Sri Mahathat station.

2. Interchange to the Pink Line and go to the Government Complex station.

3. Exit using the left-side staircase, and walk towards the area between National Telecom and the Government Complex.

4. On the way, you’ll see the entrance to the Government Complex (a large open, green area).

5. Ask the guard for the free shuttle bus to the Immigration Office — they will guide you to it.

6. Take the shuttle; it will drop you directly at the Immigration Bureau.

Option 2: Grab/Bolt

👉Take a Grab or Bolt for a faster, direct trip.

📍 Location on Google Maps: Chaeng Watthana Immigration Office

🍀🍀✨Best Time to Go:

👉The best time to go is around 7:00 AM, as queue tickets are distributed from 8:15 AM to 3:30 PM.

👉The earlier you arrive, the earlier you’ll get your queue number.

👉There are usually over 600 people per day reporting for 90-day check-ins.

👉The first thing you must do upon arrival is take a queue ticket.

🍀🍀TM47 Form (90-Day Reporting Form):

👉You need to fill out a TM47 form before your turn at the counter.

👉You can fill it after taking your queue ticket, or before you go.

👉TM47 forms are available at the information desk at the Immigration Office.

👉You can also download the TM47 form online and fill it in advance to save time.

🍀🍀Important Documents & Notes:🍀🍀

✅Your original passport is required.

✅You must appear in person for the first-time report.

✅If you’re sick, busy, or under special circumstances, your spouse can go on your behalf with an authorization letter.

🔈🔈The letter must include:🔈🔈

♦️Your full name

♦️Passport number

♦️Residence address (must match the TM30 form)

♦️Your spouse’s full name and passport number

♦️Your original signature

✅TM30 Form is required — ask your landlord or residence owner for it.

✋✋Final Note:✋✋

Well, this is exactly the process my spouse and I followed for our TM47 (90-day reporting). We are both on the Soft Skill Visa (Muay Thai Visa) — I as the main applicant and my spouse as a dependent.

Please note that procedures may vary slightly, so it’s always a good idea to double-check updated information online or with immigration based on your visa type and location.

“Just in case bring your passport, visa, residence address agreement letter photo copy, marriage certificate in case of spouse, spouse passport visa “ Photo copies of all important documents, this is not mandatory because in my case they just ask for original passport, TM 47 form, TM 30 form and because just because I have also done my spouse (vice-versa) I have to give the authorization letter as well.

I hope this post can help you 🙏

AteVChiang Mai border run to Chiang Khong/Huayxai completer. We found a private car service for about half the price of the organized Van trip. That way we could stop for snack and smoke breaks on the way. Fast exit and entry into Laos. We had Lao e-visas but still had to fill out an arrival and departure card. We waited about 20 minutes for the bus across the friendship bridge, ฿25 a person entering into Laos was smooth, but there was another ฿20 charge after we cleared immigration. We turned right back around and went back in. The Lao immigration person was very friendly, asked several times if we were sure we didn’t have to stay two days. We assured her that was not the case, hoping we were right, as we had been informed in this forum. It was a short wait for the bus back across the friendship, bridge, and our entry into Thailand was smooth and easy. The Thai immigration officer took our DTV’s, asked us where we lived, which was Chiang Mai, and stamped us back in through January 8, 2026. We had filled out the TDAC online and were prepared with the digital downloads I saved to my phone. However, just like the last time we came in at Chiang Mai airport, we were never asked for it. I imagine they just looked it up on the computer and saw that we had it, but no one ever mentioned it. thanks for all your help.

Further update regarding bank account. I have had an account with Bangkok bank for 3 years no problem....until 3 days ago. Logged in for online banking only to see account suspended...phone number and name don't match. Go into the bank to sort out, and to make it worse I couldn't find my bank book. I needed a receipt from the phone company to prove name and number belong to me and bank book...got neither !!

Anyway, bank staff very helpful and cooperative...cost 100 baht and we will make up new bank book...whilst we do that, go to AIS shop and change phone number in my name and get receipt. Did that , went back to the bank, signed a rain forest load of paper and job was done. ..and new bank book. Told it would be 7 days before reinstated....pleaded I need sooner because of bills to be paid, and 5 hours later back online. Brilliant service and relatively straightforward. Just saying....

Hi, does anyone know, does the new TDAC, have a time limit?, I read it's 30 days, on a 60 day+30 day on entry visa, that doesn't make sense. I'm assuming it's OK. Also if you're doing a border run (Cambodia), after your 90 days, do you still have to do another DTAC on line, beforehand, while you're still in Thailand?
