90-day report (notification of staying over 90 days, form TM.47)

Who this is for

  • This applies if you're on a temporary stay and you've been in Thailand more than 90 days. Including on a DTV.

  • You only need to report after 90 consecutive days on your current entry. If you leave and re-enter, the count restarts from your latest entry date, every time.

  • Several visa guides agree.

  • Your entry day counts as day 1.

  • You don't need to report if your stay ends before day 90, or if this is your first extension application. That counts as your 90-day notification too.

When

  • Your due date is your entry date plus 90 days, counting entry day as day 1. Once you've reported, your receipt's date always wins over the app's calculated date.

  • You can report from 15 days before your due date to 7 days after it.

  • You can submit online up to 15 days early. By post, send it at least 15 days before your due date.

  • This repeats every 90 days while you stay in Thailand without leaving. Leaving and re-entering resets the count.

  • If you've extended your DTV (up to 360 days on one entry), later reports fall roughly at days 180 and 270. But the exact dates for a DTV aren't confirmed yet, so use your receipt date.

Before you start

  • A TM30 on file for your current address.

    Chiang Mai requires it. Field-verified there; for other offices this is not confirmed yet. Check in person.

  • Report at the immigration office for the area where you live.

Ways to do it

Steps

  1. Confirm your TM30 is on filedone by someone else

    Ask your landlord or condo office whether your TM30 has been filed, and ask for a copy of the TM30 receipt slip. There's no tenant-facing self-service online check. This is the only reliable way to confirm it.

  2. Get form TM.47, fill it in and sign it yourselfonline

    Download the PDF from Bangkok Immigration's site (also linked from Chiang Mai's). The form must be signed by the applicant, not another person.

  3. Prepare copiesby post

    In person you need the originals plus TM.6 and previous receipts if you have them; by post you send copies. Chiang Mai's own copy practice for in-person visits isn't confirmed yet. Bring the passport copy set anyway.

  4. Submit, by one of the allowed methodsin person

    In person or by representative at the office covering your address (Chiang Mai: 71 Moo 3, Airport Rd, Mon–Fri 08:30–16:30); by registered mail at least 15 days before the due date; or online up to 15 days early (not after a new passport).

  5. Keep the receipt, and log itdone by someone else

    The lower part of TM.47 (“KEEP IN PASSPORT”) shows your next report date. Log it here. It overrides the app's computed date.

Fees

Common problems

  • The landlord never filed the TM30. The biggest external risk, and outside the app's control.

    Source: User field visit, Chiang Mai (Founder field report), checked 24 September 2026

  • Online filing is blocked after a passport change, whichever report this is.

    Source: User field visit, Chiang Mai (Founder field report), checked 24 September 2026

  • Missing the window: after day +7 you must go in person and pay the late fine; online filing can't process a report past the 90-day limit.

    Source: Immigration Bureau: 90-day notification (Official), checked 25 September 2026

  • Posting too late. The post must go at least 15 days before the due date.

  • TM.47 signed by someone else will be rejected.

  • Confusing the report with an extension. This is not an extension of stay.

  • A new passport: bring both passports. The rule on transferring stamps isn't independently researched. This is app copy only.
