Here is the back page of my passport with the bar code sticker and also printed onto the passport page directly.  The 90 day report is stapled onto a separate page.  I cut pieces of the code out for privacy reasons but gives you the idea.

Actually if you look on the left page you can see all the staple holes from the 90 day reports. Posted Image

I just took a closer look, believe the bottom set of numbers and the bottom embedded bar code is part of the passport itself so only the top bar code is what was added by immigration.

Yes the lower bar code is your passport number as written below it.  Are you saying the above code is on a sticky?  In Bangkok it is printed on a new receipt form and no such stamp is placed in passport - perhaps Chiang Mai is using a temporary system until they can print the new receipts?  Did you get the old bottom section of TM.47 as your paper receipt?

Yes, the top one is a sticky and stuck onto the page.  The old bottom section of the TM.47 is stapled into the previous page as usual.  As I mentioned in a previous post this may be a temporary measure until they are up to speed.  Perhaps they don't have the proper printing equipment yet.

Thank you. I have now added it to the album. Perhaps it's contains just an ID number which will let immigration officers bring your file to the computer screen.

No leaflet, no explanation and didn't see anything posted over the desk(s) or at least nothing obvious showing it.  Perhaps a CM member going there soon can take a look around or relay their experience with their 90 day report.

//edit - that looks promising that you just show up now with your passport.
