Pattaya Immigration Experience - 13 May 2024 - For Annual Extension
I am required to present in person annually for the visa renewal (not the 90 day report). Presumably this is to sign each piece of paper (and there are about 50 of these) in the presence of the officials. Chiang Mai immigration requires a hand drawn map of your residence and photos of you standing outside your residence standing outside your room (if you live in a condo) and inside your room. Your spouse must be in all photos. I’m convinced these requirements are designed to set you up to fail should you submit the paperwork without the aid of an agent. They are extremely pedantic about the photos and map. If you go unaccompanied it seems they look for reasons to reject your application. Even in the best case scenario with all paperwork in order, a trip to immigration is a whole day affair, if you go solo. And the office itself is not air conditioned and overcrowded. It’s not called ‘the zoo’ for nothing. Having an agent circumvents the anxiety of having your application rejected and positions you in the fast queue. It’s quick and painless and in my opinion well worth the expense. And my agent provides transportation as well. -

So you still had to pitch up at immigration? Doesn't that rather defeat the object of having an agent? When I used an agent, I never went near immigration., She even took the required photo in her office. -

I support Khunmark here, maybe not the basic laws and regulations, but more how they are interpreted and applied. . 90 day reports in person, used to require just your passport and last report receipt, now they are insisting on a completed paper TM47. There is also a new penalties paper to complete and sign before an extension is granted, not needed before. A couple of years ago, my friend told me that Patts immigration were insisting on a new TM30 application before a new extension was granted. We are all aware that there are sometimes substantial differences between various immigration offices and IOs on how they interpret the laws and rules. Its why many of us used agents.
