90-Day Report (Form TM.47)การแจ้งอยู่เกินกว่า 90 วัน (ตม.47)

A mandatory notification of address that every foreign national staying in Thailand for 90 consecutive days or more must file, then repeat every 90 days while they remain. It is not a visa, an extension, or a re-entry permit — it simply tells Immigration where you currently live. The 90-day clock runs from your most recent entry stamp. Legal basis: Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979), §37(5).

Duration

Each report covers the next 90 days. The count resets on each international departure/re-entry — a new entry stamp starts a fresh 90-day clock.

Extensions

Not applicable — repeat every 90 days for as long as you stay 90+ consecutive days. The report is independent of permit expiry.

Financial requirement

None — the 90-day report is free to file. Any agent/representative service fees are separate and optional.

Fees

Filing fee: none. Late penalty: 2,000 THB if you self-report after the 7-day grace period; up to 5,000 THB if the lapse is discovered during another immigration interaction.

Processing time

Immediate at the counter for in-person filing (a receipt slip is stapled into the passport). Online submissions are typically processed within a few business days.

Who it’s for

• Any foreign national holding a long-stay permit (≥90 days) — Non-B / O / O-A / ED holders, retirement and marriage extension holders, work-permit holders, long-term residents
• Long-stay tourists who pass 90 consecutive days
• Short-stay visitors do not file (they leave before 90 days); Thai citizens are not subject to it

Key documents

• Passport (bio page, current visa/extension stamp, and the most recent entry stamp the clock runs from)
• Completed TM.47 form
• Previous 90-day-report receipt, if you have filed before
• Current Thai address details

Staying compliant

• Filing window: 15 days before to 7 days after the due date
• First report must be in person; online filing (tm47.immigration.go.th) is only for subsequent cycles and opens ~15 days before the due date
• Other filing methods: registered mail, or an authorised agent with power of attorney
• Keep the receipt — it is commonly required at extension time and may be checked at the airport
• Distinct from the TM.30 address notification (filed by the property owner) — one does not substitute for the other

Common pitfalls

• Missing the window — late fine 2,000 THB (self-report) or up to 5,000 THB (if caught)
• Trying to file the first report online — not permitted; must be in person first
• Filing online too early (the portal opens ~15 days before the due date)
• Forgetting the count resets on re-entry — leaving and returning starts a new 90-day clock
• Confusing the 90-day report with the TM.30 (different filing, different filer)
