Printed on the form is 'TM. EI' and then in a different and larger type face, after a significant space/gap, the number '46391'. I have always regarded the latter, the number, as being it. It shows something like this: TM. EI __46391 (the under-space is not on the original)
So does Chrome.
It is not quite that old. perhaps the numbers are shown as on voting slips...represented by dominoes
Sure...I just went to Google and entered Thai Immigration 90 Day Report, which gave me choices but the one I used was:
Mine was processed in record time one week ago too. I walked into the Immigration Office in Kap Choeng with my wife just after 10.00. She peeled off to the 'bathroom' while I turned right into an office full of people waiting to be processed. I said good morning to all the staff, "sawadee kap", the limit of my fluent Thai, and was told sit by an Immigration Officer. He processed my 90-day report in seconds, stapled the new reporting slip in my passport and I was up and out the door before my wife emerged from the 'bathroom'. She was surprised, as were the other people sitting in the office waiting to be processed. Great service Surin Immigration.
If Nomad hasn't already tried this, it might be worthwhile on his next visit to Surin Immigration to have his lovely wife explain why Nomad seems to be unable to do the online report. Maybe they can upgrade or change his information as to allow an online report. Maybe yes, maybe no, but could be worth the effort (if not already tried)

It's nothing to do with me per se other than I arrived in Thailand in the long and distant past. My arrival card dates from 2002 and is not recorded on Immigration's newer computer system. Just for the record, my wife and I have spoken to Immigration and, as Yorky said, the solution is to leave the country and obtain a new arrival card. A visit to Surin Immigration to obtain an exit/re-entry permit (฿1,000.00 ), an extra drive to the border at Chom Chong, ฿1,600.00 or so for a Cambodian visa, cross the border and do what? and then return to Thailand. Besides, my wife and I enjoy the quarterly outing in the car, especially when the sun is shining, and the chance to do a shop in Tesco's Prasat. It's always nice to see the friendly faces in the Immigration Office and to enjoy a little banter. Occasionally, we even venture as far as Chom Chong and spend an hour or so in the Internationally famous market. However, when I get my next, Blue, British Passport in three years time, I may just cross the border and obtain a new arrival card. Then, with a little bit of luck, I will be set for the next 10 years of Internet reporting from the mancave.
An interesting proposition. Given that I have just provided the wherewithal for my darling wife to buy a new Nissan Note, delivery expected next week or sooner, maybe I will be allowed a pink chit to get my 90-day report sorted.
Looking at Monday 28th Sept departure - a long way off, but time goes quickly.
As a 2-car family, I could take the Ranger along for a spin!It would be good to have you (and others) along. Sort of a mini SF get together. Promise to bring your wife some dried fish back and she will be more than happy for you to go.
