I've not reported a single time during the last 3 and a half years.

Never been fined.

Certainly haven't been out every 90 days.

There is a rebel hiding deep inside.....you devil

Nah, I've just got someone else responsible and who has to pay if I get caught, so why would I care?

Ah, the advantages of living in a metropolis like CM. For us peasants, a two hour drive is the norm.

Not all of us pesants.

Believe it or not, I trust immigration slightly more than I trust the local postal system.

No shit. I always drive to Mukdahan.

This wonderful new invention may also be used for taking (shit) photos and making telephone calls to people. (A telephone call is a way of speaking to someone who isn't in the same place as you are. Provided you both have a telephone and know each others' special codes - called telephone numbers - you can speak to someone even though you can't see them. Amazing, I think you'll agree.)

Here is a picture so you'll know what to look for next time you're out shopping for rocks and boulders.

But it is open to mistakes....like the operator putting in the wrong reminder date.

So someone told me.

Or - and this is a bold step, invest 100 baht in a desk diary (I find the one month at a glance ones useful) and enter the date in big black letters.

Excellent suggestion, nid. Where can one buy such a product? How long have they been on the market? Do they come with instructions and batteries?

LOL. The really great thing though is that they work with crayons, which is all I am allowed....

I've never been questioned, even when I went for my yearly extensions I've been late and nothing said. BTW, going for an extension doesn't count as reporting (even though you sign form with your address).

I don't think any of this goes on the computer. What happens if you claim to have lost the receipt and made the last report at a different office? Hypothetically speaking.

I did my yearly extension this month.
My 90 day reporting is up to date but I didn't have the slip with me.
The Officer refused to grant me an extension because I couldn't show him the slip

^
what do you have to do now then?

those slips are pretty easy to lose.

You can also get google to send you a reminder via email.

Yes they are easy to lose.
An immigration officer managed to lose one for me once which is why I no longer keep it in my passport.

^ So what happens when it's lost?

Not sure about what happens when its lost.

I just did mine again. Just a reminder to those who might need to do it.

Whats easiest and cheapest to do from Hua Hin? A 90 day visa run or some form of reprorting to Immigration...Im on a Non B

You need to spend time trawling through the book at Immigration in which they log all the 90 day reports they receive. Once you find your report your in the OK.

It's a big book, and it took me almost an hour to find my report.

(How come they don't have computers in this country?)

This thread is about 90 day reporting

If you have a query about 90 day visa then I think you should start a new thread.
And please give full details

They simply put a new one in for me, no questions this time and luckily they forgot about the appointment they made for me for my next visit to 'discuss' the fine for missing the last 2.

I still haven't done one in 4 years.
