- After acceptanceCheck the new receipt and save the next appointment date.
What the 90-day report is
The report is a notification of your current residence after staying in Thailand for more than 90 days. It is not a visa extension and it does not extend your permission to stay. Those are separate timelines.
The official TM.47 receipt includes the next notification date. Treat that returned date as the primary reference for the next cycle and keep the receipt with your passport records.
Choose the reporting channel
Depending on your circumstances, reporting may be available in person, by registered post, online, through an authorised person, or through an eligible Thailand Privilege member service. Channel rules and local office practice can change.
- In person: contact the immigration office responsible for the area where you live.
- Online: use the Immigration Bureau reporting system and allow time for official review.
- Registered post: send early and follow the responsible office’s current checklist.
- Thailand Privilege service: confirm eligibility, quota or points, location, reservation, document list and the current drop-off schedule with the Member Contact Center.
A reliable preparation sequence
- Read the next date from your latest official receipt. If you left Thailand, recalculate from the latest arrival and verify it.
- Confirm your reporting channel before gathering channel-specific documents.
- Check passport validity, the active PE visa page, latest arrival or extension stamp, address evidence and previous receipt.
- Complete and sign the current TM.47 where required.
- Submit within the applicable window and keep evidence of submission.
- Review the returned receipt, confirm the next date, then start the next cycle.
If you leave Thailand
The Immigration Bureau handbook says that when you leave before the next appointment and return, the 90-day count begins from the latest arrival date. Your old appointment should not simply be carried forward. See the related guide before relying on a calculated date.
Common mistakes
- Treating the report as an extension of permission to stay.
- Using a visa expiry date as the 90-day due date.
- Ignoring a departure and continuing the previous cycle.
- Assuming Thailand Privilege service is automatic or available to every member in every location.
- Failing to keep the accepted receipt and its next appointment date.
Frequently asked questions
Does a 90-day report extend my stay?
No. The official TM.47 form expressly separates the notification from an extension of stay.
Can Thailand Privilege complete it for me?
Eligible members may have a service option subject to membership conditions, location, quota or points, scheduling and document requirements. Confirm directly before relying on it.
What date should I trust?
Use the next date on the latest accepted receipt. If you departed and re-entered, use the latest arrival as the new starting point and verify with Immigration.
What happens after submission?
Check acceptance, retain the receipt, confirm the next appointment date and prepare the next cycle.
