That's easy. Any time you're in Thailand for 90 consecutive days you report your address to Immigration. You can do this in person, online or by mail. Very simple process

@Cameron ********

What 90 day thing?

You can do it by mail! 😆😆

What's the small error? It may be irrelevant

@Greg *******

Yes. Once I've got mine, I'm making a five year pledge never to attend immigration. I know just how pedantic these people can get once they've got that uniform on!

@Greg *******

There was a report from guy in one of the other expat groups who got an extension I believe at CW, he said he had to provide TM30 and show his overseas bank account to ensure it was still 500k. I'll see if I can find it and post the link here

@Greg *******

There's a lot more DTVs might be looked at more closely, such as the dental appointments and cooking classes before they look at retirees. If someone has a business registration and a work contract, it's a lot more solid than a few fillings! One friend of mine has just secured his by becoming a "consultant" for his son-in-laws lawn mowing business. On paper, he will carry out the financial administration of the business. I don't see how the MFA can deny this, when they're dishing them out to Instagram "influencers" 😂

@Greg *******

Yes correct. It's all down to individual circumstances. I travel fairly extensively so it suits my travel patterns. A couple of buddies have switched because they have for several years been using visa agents and paying k each year for their extensions. They're happy now to be rid of that and will do the border bounce when required. The biggest plus of course for many is the elimination of visits to immigration and tolerating their pedantic nuances year in, year out. It will be interesting to see how the figures shake out and whether immigration actually bother to keep numbers on those switching

A lot of Australian retirees are switching from non-O to DTV, I think due to the simplicity of obtaining the DTV

You have to go to Chaengwattha. Put a day aside. Why would DTV holders not have to do a 90-day report?
