Definitely no harm in trying but if it does get approved let me know what bar I can meet you in to buy you a beer!!

If my report day is today the 10th then is my last report date 16 or 17?

As IMO it could be argued as either

TIA

I'd say the 17th - 7 days after the report date. However I've unintentionally (forgot) have reported up to 10 days late and got away with it. Maybe my wai and apology worked.

As usual, it's about the officer you're dealing with and not the written rules.

Yes agreed, it is mostly about that in the final analysis.

But I was just curious as to what the actual rule was and whether they could fine you for being 'late' on 17th (by counting the first day as the 10th)

There are other instances with immigration of when the count starts....

Just FWIW, the one and only time I was "late" reporting (I was one day late because the due date fell on a Sunday) I was been given a stern warning by the older lady IO in BlúPort, not to report after the due date next time.

I’d err on the side of caution and go on the 16th, what’s best - peace of mind or fretting over a possible fine?

Not my intention at all

I always want to understand how the rules work.

When it comes to rules, in pretty much everything in life, I have OCD!

Unfortunately I live in a country where rules are rarely black and white but mostly grey! Image

What documents do I need to bring to Blueport for the 90 day reporting? Passport, TM30, more?

Lady in Bluport says the 7 days starts on, and includes, the report date

So "7 days after" is misleading

6 days after would be more accurate

However no doubt 50% of Immigration Officers would say the opposite!

Best to work on 6 days after to be safe

I did my 90 day report at Bluport on Friday. I have to confess I had forgotten about it and it was due on Sunday the 15th.

I was dismayed by the queues and even more dismayed to learn there were only two IO's on duty.

After waiting 15 minutes and then realising everyone seemed to be extending visas and the queue hadn't moved, I decided to return later. Luckily, it was nice and quiet by then.

If this carries on, I wil go back to doing it online!

Things have changed. The last 2 or 3 '90' day reports, there has been zero queue and in and out in a minute or two.

Yes, that has been my experience - until Friday
