How to Use the Thailand LTR Visa 1-Year Report Tracker
- Enter your LTR visa issuance date, or the date of your last 1-year report if you've already filed one.
- Confirm today's date (pre-filled, editable).
- Click Check deadline. The tool computes your next due date and the accepted filing window around it.
- If the result shows "too early," you're not in the filing window yet — come back closer to the due date.

Why This Tool Doesn't Count Days
Most of the tools in this family count absence or presence days against a threshold — because that's what their underlying visa rules actually require. Thailand's Long-Term Resident (LTR) visa is different, and this tool is built to reflect that honestly rather than invent a day-count rule that doesn't exist.
The LTR visa has no minimum-stay requirement and no maximum-absence limit. It comes with a built-in multiple re-entry permission, so you can leave and return to Thailand as often as you like across its full 5+5-year validity without any day count being tracked by Immigration. There is nothing analogous to the UK's 180-day rule or the US's physical-presence requirement here.
What the LTR visa does require is a fixed reporting cadence: instead of the standard 90-day address report that most long-term Thai visa holders must file, LTR holders report to Immigration only once every 12 months. That is the one recurring, date-based obligation this visa carries — so that's what this tool tracks.
The 1-Year Report Window
Your 1-year report is due on the anniversary of your visa issuance (or your last report), and can be filed within a window of 15 days before to 7 days after that due date, per the notification card Immigration issues. Filing outside that window — too early or too late — is not accepted the same way; check with Immigration or the BOI LTR One-Stop Service Center if you're near either edge of the window.
Worked example: Your LTR visa was issued on 15 March 2025. Your first 1-year report is due 15 March 2026, and you may file it any time from 28 February 2026 (15 days before) through 22 March 2026 (7 days after). If you file on time, your next report will be due 15 March 2027, and the cycle repeats for as long as your visa is valid.
What Actually Puts Your LTR Status at Risk
- Missing the 1-year report and its filing window repeatedly, without resolving it with Immigration.
- Underlying LTR eligibility requirements lapsing (for example, if your qualifying category was based on employment or income that no longer applies) — this is a substantive eligibility question, not a day-count one, and outside what this tool checks.
- There is no absence-day or minimum-presence risk to track for LTR holders — don't let another visa's rules-of-thumb apply here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be physically present in Thailand to file the 1-year report? Filing methods vary (online, by post, or via an authorized representative) — check current BOI/Immigration guidance for what's accepted while you're abroad.
What's the penalty for a late 1-year report? This wasn't confirmed against an official, current fee schedule at time of writing — this tool intentionally does not state a specific fine. Contact Immigration directly if you expect to file late.
Does the 88-day or 180-day rule from other visas apply to LTR? No — those are rules from entirely different visa categories (Australia's Working Holiday visa and the UK's settlement routes, respectively). LTR has no equivalent.
Is this official BOI/Immigration guidance? No. This is an independent, browser-only estimate. Always confirm your exact due date and filing method with Immigration or BOI before your window opens.
Is my data stored anywhere? No. The check runs entirely in your browser; nothing is transmitted to a server.
