London George....sorry, I forgot to mention I was using the 'Edge browser' when doing this.
So you should be able to use 'Chrome' as well....any other browser, I can't comment on.

Thanks Suua. I had already tried Edge (along with Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and the App from Google Play) and none of them worked. Tried it again just now and also same result so it looks increasingly like a trip to the office. But thank you for your reply and hopefully your info can help someone else.

Hi London George,
I had a similar experience to what you are seeing.
My experience, was after I had filled in my details on the 90 day form and clicked submit.
I would get a message as you describe....."For further information regarding The 90-day Notification Report Service, please contact the Immigration Branch Office in your residence area."
Turns out I was entering incorrect information.....In my case I had entered the incorrect date into the 'Arrived in Thailand(Date)' field.....obviously the date I entered didn't correlate with the data they had on their system when I last entered Thailand.
After I corrected this, it went through without a hitch....

Is Immigratin open in Hua Hin as usual now?

Post by Hahuahin »

I need to reregister address after just coming back from another province and allow me to ask if immigration is open as normal and eventually if Bluport office is open (most likely not) because I heard some say only supermarked!? If anyone can enlighten me about the subject and also how to proceed under the current Covid 19 circumstances I will be grateful.
I have been checked up and down and registered by both AOT flying domestic, and the health authorities on the way from Bangkok and have not been ordered to quarantine but will in respect to other residents and my better half live alone for two weeks (we have two condominiums) and only be outside early morning doing some exercise alone to try to keep the health up.

Thank you in advance.

I thought the need to register your address after inter-province travel had been dropped a long time ago?

Thanks for replying. Not exactly travel for the excitement of travel but I have moved, moved and moved again and then unless new rules due to the Covid -19 I think its my duty to report where I live. I have previously done this at Bluport office but as said in OP I'm not sure that's open and then I would be grateful to hear if anyone know if at least the main office is open. Thank you, hahuahin.

I was actually eyes on the road - it was my son who had eyes on immigration. So we don't need to open a Burton's franchise in Hua Hin yet :shock:

I have tried 2 different computers and 3 different browsers (Firefox, Chrome and Edge) and I always end up with the same message,"For further information regarding The 90-day Notification Report Service, please contact the Immigration Branch Office in your residence area." I do not want to go to the Immigration Office unless I really have to. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Hi London George,
I've just done mine....here's what I did.
Click this link....https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn90 ... 7Action.do
Make sure you scroll down to the bottom of the information and click the *I have read and fully understand the above terms and conditions and agree to accept them"
This should make the "Accept" button turn light blue, and then you click on that.

The next page that opens is....
Immigration2.png

Click the Blue rectangle for 90 day reporting.

Fill in the form making sure you get the date correct for the 'Arrived in Thailand(Date)'.....this is the date stamped on the back of the TM6 arrivals card (little bit of paper left in/stapled into your passport).
After you've filled in all the info, click the submit button at the bottom and you should be good to go.....
Hope this helps.
For information I applied on line for 90 days report (7 days before due date of 14th April) for my husband and myself at 11.20 am this morning and received a mail saying it was approved at 16.00PM this afternoon
Printed the next appointment dated 5th July
Nice and easy and saves us a trip to Tha Yang

I was just looking at some pics (purported to have been taken this morning) with hundreds of people in the Pattaya office and massive queues outside. No social distancing of course.
It was announced yesterday that proposals have been made for automatic extensions and cabinet will be discussing it NEXT WEEK!

I won't give you a link as it's from the TV forum so anyone interested can look for themselves.

Update from Dan Singkhon (Prachuap) immigration from two people that went there today. They are refusing the 30 day extensions and sending all farangs to Hua Hin to join the socially distant masses there.
