The official operating information

As of 1 August 2026, the current official Chonburi Immigration Thai/English listing publishes the following information for the Jomtien office. The former dedicated contact URL entered a redirect loop during this review, so the figures below were rechecked against the current O1 operating listing and O4 contact listing. The two daily periods are opening periods, not promises that a new case will be accepted or completed at any particular time.

The official page does not publish a holiday calendar for each counter. A closure or operational notice can change access without creating a general visa-rule change.

What is not officially published

On the Chonburi and national Immigration pages reopened 1 August 2026, we did not locate:

Anecdotes can describe one visit, but they cannot safely be presented as a current operating rule. This page therefore does not convert private reports into promised arrival or completion times.

Official online alternatives

TM47 address reporting: as of 1 August 2026, Immigration's official online manual and portal publish an online application window within the 15 days before the due date. The live manual returned an access-control response to the reviewer, so this figure was cross-checked against Immigration's current indexed copy. Online acceptance depends on the record matching; a rejected application is handled through the responsible office. A universal Jomtien walk-in grace window was not freshly established from an accessible current handbook in this review.

TM30 residence notification: as of 1 August 2026, Immigration's official English and Thai portal pages continue to state that section 38 places the notification duty on the house owner, head of household, landlord, possessor or hotel manager, depending on the accommodation, within 24 hours of the foreign national taking residence. The live portal returned access-control responses during this review; the wording was rechecked against Immigration's indexed English and Thai copies. Portal registration and an accepted submission remain separate steps.

Not every extension, conversion, correction or permit has an equivalent online filing route. The service-specific Immigration handbook establishes the documents, fee and statutory process; it does not create a public Jomtien wait-time promise.

Correction record

1 August 2026: re-opened the current Chonburi Immigration Thai/English operating and contact listings, the Immigration Bureau English TM47 manual and Thai-English TM47 materials, and the English/Thai TM30 portal guidance. The published opening periods and online-window claims held; no official live queue, best-day dataset, wait-time standard, or agent-fee schedule was located.
