I did my first one online, so try it 14 days in advance. If not approved you have plenty of time to go in person.

@Alan *******
okay. Some IO insist and others don't, so it seems like you are unlucky and I was lucky simply based on where we are located.

@Glenn ****
apologies, I misunderstood. As Brandon said, just try it online then, hopefully should be okay.

@Brandon ***********
to be honest Brandon I have never encountered that problem here, but I think your logic is what I would assume also. This is Thailand, so we might both be wrong!

@Brandon ***********
that's true, there are few if any in Khao Takiab also.

The other problem I have had is that if the machine is in direct sunlight, the phone app will not read the QR code, but I just go find another machine if that happens.

I scan sometimes, but I find it a hassle and small places sometimes don't take it, so I still use cash. I try to use my Starling bank card to pau for things as much as possible because that's the cheapest option for me.

@Tony ********
that's possibly why they discourage you from transferring accounts as it makes no difference 🤔

@Tony ********
yes. I have used cardless in Krabi, Phuket, Bangkok, Hua Hin and Chonburi, all free.

I don't understand why not putting your card in the machine makes such a difference, but it does. Give it a try.

I think it's worth checking with your new immigration office first. I had to complete a form when I moved, before doing the 90 day report. I am the same as you in that I use the online system before and after the move, so it should be okay.
