Not a bad idea to do it by mail or online, to avoid the madness of reporting with everyone else after 31 July!

[ubonjoe]

Ninety day reporting has not been required since April 7th. It is for all extensions of stay.

I have already skipped a report that was due last month.

Immigration will announce the dates for 90 day reporting as soon as it is decided there is no need for another extension of it.

They will certainly not want everybody to report on the same date. It could be done by the month your report was due or 90 days from when you last report will be due.

It is apparently not crowded and people will do what they feel they have to, despite having been told it is not necessary.

Probably because they do not know it is not required or just don't believe the info posted on the immigration website.

It would not be possible to have everyone report just after July 31.

Your report would be 90 days from the date you missed. Only a guess but nothing else makes sense.

Just typical Thai mismanagement of not outlining what will be required.

Totally incompetent.

Because they are over-cautious/know better/stupid.

 

 

I actually blame Immigration; having introduced this sensible amnesty they should have refused to do any 90 day reports and turn people away. Concentrate as well on a staggered period after 31 July to avoid congestion from the backlog. Better still, just cancel any 90 day reports in the 2 months to 31 July so those affected report 180 days after their last one.

Was in Phuket immigration yesterday. Those on extensions MUST continue with 90 day reporting. Heard it from the horse's mouth.

Why would they do it so early. Most people would of forgotten about it over 3 months later.

Also there is a chance it could be extended again.They will make an announcement after they decide it will not be extended again.

My horse in Buriram Immigration spoke differently  -  he was consistent with the Thai Immigration Bureau's advice.........  the horse in Phuket is not.

Just the normal false info from Phuket immigration.

Doesn't surprise me, but, as we have a drive-thru that takes a couple of minutes (no paperwork needed), I'll continue doing them. We are not in a lock-down situation anymore.

[IvorBiggun2]

Did my 90 day report online 3 days ago. It was approved within 24 hours. Covers my ass for the rush come 31 July. I live Buriram Province

[PBob]

My report was due on the 10th, reported online on the 1st.

 

This morning checked and application was still pending. Phoned Pathumthani immigration and was told to come in and report. Immigration office was very quiet so was done in 20 minutes, which included query about my extension later this month.

I know it's an island, but ... is the Phuket Immigration office totally unable to communicate with "the mainland"? They do have telephones and internet service in Phuket, right? ????

Thanks Joe. Mine was due on the 26th April. I didn't do it as they had suspended them. I have to go to Immigration next Monday on another matter. Whilst there I also go into the office that deals with 90 Day Reports and see if they want me to do it as I'm there already.

 

I will report update next week.

Hi Joe and any other guys that know about extensions on TVF,

 

Sorry to disturb anybody, but need advice..

 

As many are aware, I am in Kalasin.

 

My actual annual extension date is July 17th, how soon before that date may I apply to get it done and dusted PLEASE?

 

I have loads to do as soon as planes are flying but I would love to get this done ASAP.

There are no crowds at Jomtien right now. Very very quiet.

1st August may be a different matter....

Up to 30 days early at many offices and 45 days at others.

Hi Joe, I did know about the amnesty and my 90 day was due on 22 April. However, I decided to go to see how things were at Jomtiem IO on 6 May. No crowd, seen in 5 mins. Then the officer told me not to be late reporting next time. Go figure....??

Do you really think everybody have to do their 90 days reports the day after the amnesty is lifted?

Probably for the same reason people does it online. You can still do it if you want. Everybody doesn't stay out in the sticks far from their immigration office.

I skipped mine last month. I did that because it was not required and the advice was to stay at home unless you had to do something important.

Not sure what that means. Thing is if amnesty ends July 31 (or later if extended) logic would suggest everyone needs to do 90 day report asap. 

In this thread along there are 2 posts re need to do 90 day report. Think that was Jomtien and Phuket. 2 of the most rogue imm offices in a country that cannot control imm offices having their say. 

Which I guess it does mean it's fluid. I would prefer to describe as crazy.
