Good news for expats in Thailand.
After being offline for much of this year, Thai Immigration’s online 90 day reporting service is now back up and running.
According to a post on the Immigration Bureau’s Facebook Page, the 90 day online reporting and TM30 reporting services “have now resumed normal operations”.
The online service allows long term expats to submit their 90 day report via the Immigration website rather than having to submit the report in person at their local immigration office.
During the pandemic, Immigration has actually recommended that certain groups submit their 90 day online in order to reduce queuing in offices.
The online service also allows a householder, owner or possessor of a dwelling, place or hotel manager to submit a so-called TM30 report, or a notification of residence under Section 38 of Immigration Act. This is the requirement that a property owner needs to report to immigration if they have a foreigner residing at their property.
To submit a 90 day report online, go to: https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn90online/online/tm47/TM47Action.do
Expats can also submit a 90 day report by post or via Immigration’s mobile app.
The requirements to submit a 90 day report by post are as follows:
he requirements for 90 day reporting by post are:
- Photocopy of passport pages with following pages
- front page showing name / surname / Passport No., etc.
