In-Depth Guide: TM.47 90-Day Address Report (TM.47)

TM.47 90-Day Address Report is delivered under ILC's Thai Immigration Bureau — Practical Operations practice, combining MoJ-certified translation, MFA legalization, embassy liaison, and Thai government filing under one project manager. Every case is handled by a NAATI-accredited translator, a Thai Notarial Services Attorney, and a dedicated case coordinator.

The Immigration Bureau (Sor Tor Mor) is the operational arm of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 and controls every foreigner's presence in Thailand from arrival to permanent residency. ILC delivers the full ecosystem: 90-day reports, TM-30 residence notification, TM-6 arrival card, re-entry permits (single and multiple), extension of stay (retirement, marriage, work, education, dependents), Certificate of Residence, Certificate of No Criminal Record letter, visa transfer between passports, and complex overstay resolution including departure orders under Section 54. Each transaction has evolved rapidly since 2024's digital push: e-Extension, e-TM-6, and the Digital Arrival Card now coexist with legacy paper forms depending on the immigration office. Our team maintains real-time procedural notes on all 76 provincial offices to route filings efficiently.

A working guide to Immigration Bureau in Thailand

Immigration Bureau sits at the intersection of certified translation, notarial attestation, and consular filing, three disciplines our Bangkok office has run in parallel every business day for over two decades. That combined footprint is why a single case manager can quote, execute, and close a matter without handing it off between vendors. Every Immigration Bureau matter is scoped by a senior specialist on LINE Official @NAATI or by email at ilc@thainotary.co.th before any file moves.

How the workflow runs end-to-end

Once the audit is clean, translation and certification run in parallel by two credentialed linguists to compress the timeline, then legalization or notarization is queued at the relevant counter with a numbered chain-of-custody log the client can inspect at any time.

Who this service is for

Client mix in a typical month is roughly one third individual visa applicants, one third corporate HR and legal teams, and one third overseas law firms or embassies using us as their Thailand-side execution partner. Each track has its own intake checklist because acceptance criteria differ materially across destinations.

Coverage, fees, and turnaround

Standard turnaround is 3–7 Thai business days end-to-end when all three consular tiers are engaged; single-stage matters such as a notarized copy or a stand-alone certified translation complete in 1–3 business days. Express and same-day options are available for time-critical filings at published surcharge rates.

Quality assurance and confidentiality

Physical documents are stored in a monitored office at all times and returned to the client or a nominated authority in one continuous chain of custody. Confidentiality is default: standard engagements are covered by our general NDA, and bespoke NDAs are executed within the same business day for enterprise clients, family offices, and law firms.

Start your Immigration Bureau matter today

Reach ILC on LINE Official @NAATI, email ilc@thainotary.co.th, or phone 080-5578887. Office hours are Monday to Sunday, 08:30 to 20:00 Bangkok time. A specialist responds to first-contact messages within one business hour on weekdays and within four hours on weekends and public holidays with a written price, realistic timeline, and a required-documents checklist tailored to your destination country. There is no charge for the initial consultation, and no obligation to proceed after receiving the quote — ILCearns repeat business by delivering the first Immigration Bureau matter cleanly and on time, not by locking clients into open-ended retainers.
