Thai Immigration’s 90 Day Online Visa Reporting, Takes Effect in April

BANGKOK – Col. Worawat Amornwiwat an immigration spokesman has reported Thursday that Foreign Nationals staying in Thailand will be able to report their address every 90 days online via the Immigration Bureau’s website, effective from April 1st.

Col Worawat Amornwiwat said the new service aimed to provide improved convenience for foreigners staying in Thailand, and prepare for regional integration under the Asean Economic Community (AEC).

Foreigners can make their 90-day report by filling in a notification form online or through the usual portal entry at www.immigration.go.th. The service currently requires the “Microsoft Internet Explorer” browser. The bureau hopes to make it compatible with other popular browsers later.

Foreigners staying in Thailand on long-term visas are required to report to the Immigration Bureau every 90 days to confirm their residential address.

Until now this has usually required traveling to an immigration office to file a form, or authorizing another person to do it, or filing the notification by registered post or EMS before the deadline with a stamped and addressed return envelope for the confirmation docket.
