90-Day Reporting at Thai Immigration: TM47 Documents & Timing

How to make a 90-day report at a Thai immigration office

If you remain in Thailand for 90 consecutive days, you generally need to notify Thai Immigration of your current address. This is the TM47 90-day report. This guide focuses on reporting at a local immigration office.

A 90-day report is an address notification. It does not extend your visa or permission to stay. For the full explanation, see our main 90-day reporting guide.

When can you report in person?

Thai Immigration states that an in-person notification can be made from 15 days before until 7 days after the 90-day due date. Check the date on your previous accepted report. For a first report after entering Thailand, calculate your consecutive stay from your latest entry.

If you leave Thailand before completing 90 consecutive days, the count starts again when you re-enter. Do not confuse your visa expiry date with your 90-day reporting date.

What should you take to the office?

• Your original passport.
• Your previous 90-day reporting receipt, if you have one.
• Your latest entry details and current address.
• A completed TM47 form and any copies or address evidence requested by your local office.

Document practices can vary between offices. Check locally before travelling, especially if someone else will submit the report for you.

What happens after submission?

Check that the report has been accepted and keep the receipt showing your next reporting date. Put that date in your calendar. If any passport or address details are wrong, raise the issue before leaving the office.

Is this the same as a TM30?

No. A TM30 is an accommodation notification made by the person responsible for the property. A TM47 is your 90-day address report. Depending on your circumstances, you may need evidence relating to both.
