What is the process and required paperwork for the 90-day check-in for DTV holders in Thailand?

Greg ********

If you state the office you will be attending you will get more accurate info as they often have different requirements. Most are pretty easy as it is as much a chore for them as it is for us and they just want to get them out of the way

Different offices have different requirement. Not all need a photo. Waiting time at Jomtien is 20 to 30 mins. The form you mention is TM47 for 90 Day report

You can only extend it one time per entry. So after 360 days you woukd have to leave Thailand. You cannot just extend it in country.

@Markus *******

It usually signifies a passport where visas have to be applied ahead of a visit. Often these visas are hard to get. As an example Singapore is a very strong passport as they have visa free entry very extensively. Indian passport is weak as they mostly need visas and are hard to obtain for say USA, Schengen etc
