90-Day Reporting

If you're a foreigner in Thailand for over 90 days, you must report your address to the Immigration Bureau. This applies to long-term visa holders to maintain legal status.

What Is 90-Day Reporting?

90-day reporting requires you to inform Thai Immigration of your address every 90 days, as per Section 37(5) of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522. It’s important to note that this is just an address update, not a visa extension, and the 90-day count resets once you leave and re-enter Thailand.

Who Needs To Report

You must report if you:

  • Hold a Non-Immigrant Visa (e.g., Business, Retirement, Marriage)

  • Have stayed over 90 consecutive days in Thailand

You do not need to report if you:

  • Are a tourist under 90 days

  • Hold an LTR Visa (annual report)

  • Are an Elite Visa holder (reporting handled for you)

Deadlines & Penalties

  • Late Report (within 7 days): 2,000 THB fine

  • Report post-catch: 5,000 THB fine

  • No fine if reported within the 15 days before or 7 days after the due date.

Required Documents

Prepare:

  1. Completed TM.47 Form

  2. Passport copies (info page, last entry stamp, current visa)

  3. TM.6 Departure Card (if issued)

  4. Previous 90-day report receipt (if applicable)

  5. TM.30 Form

  6. Self-addressed envelope with 10-baht stamp (for mail reports)

How To Report

  1. Online: Via tm47.immigration.go.th (you must have made a prior in-person report).

  2. In Person: Visit a local Immigration Office; bring required documents.

  3. By Mail: Send documents 15 days before due date to the Immigration Division.

  4. Via Representative / Visa Agent: Authorized agents can report for you.

What If You Miss It?

Failure to report on time results in fines (2,000–5,000 THB) and may affect visa renewals or lead to deportation.

Long-Term Visa Exceptions

  • LTR Visa: Once per year

  • Elite Visa: Every 90 days (handled by concierge)

  • Non-Immigrant Visas: Every 90 days (self or representative)

Summary Checklist

  • TM.47 Form signed

  • Passport + TM.6 + TM.30 copies

  • Self-addressed envelope (for mail)

  • Submit within reporting window

  • Keep TM.47 receipt safe

Pro Tips

  • Don’t confuse with visa extensions.

  • Keep digital copies of all documents.

  • Set reminders every 85 days.

  • Report changes in passport, address, or visa.

  • Consider hiring a visa agent for convenience.

Final Thoughts

The 90-day report process is straightforward once understood. Staying compliant helps avoid fines and ensures smooth residency in Thailand.
