Step 3 : Once your paperwork is ready, the overseas student will need to take the paperwork to the Chiang Mai Immigration Office (Open Monday to Friday, 8:00-12:00 and 13:00-15.30).

Every 90th day after you arrive in Thailand, you must go report yourself at the immigration office. Fill out the form “form for alien to notify of staying longer than 90 days (TM.47)” at the immigration office. There is no fee for the 90-day check-in.

Notes
- If you leave the country, your 90-day count will start over again.
- This can be done 7 days in advance but no later than 7 days after the due date. Note: If you do not report to the Chiang Mai Immigration Office within 7 days after the due date, you will be fined 2,000 baht. If you are arrested during this period, you will be fined 4,000 baht.

Every time that you arrive in Thailand, the overseas student needs to report themselves within 24 hours for address notification. All students living in the faculty dormitories must report themselves to the visa supporting staff (either Nan or Chiara). If you arrive on a Saturday or Sunday, send the digital copies by Line application and then come to the office on Monday to submit the hard copies. For the student living outside of faculty dormitories, please report to the landlord of your residence.

All students must apply for a re-entry permit every time before you leave Thailand.

Important!! If you leave without a re-entry permit, your Non-Immigrant ED visa will be canceled upon departure, then you will need to apply for a new ED visa again.

Please apply for re-entry permits at the immigration office.
