How to report sexual assault in Chiang Mai
This is what we have read and stored about reporting in Chiang Mai. Read only the part you need. You do not have to decide anything today.
Some of this comes from support organisations, published research or consular guidance rather than an official Thailand source. Sources are listed below.
the emergency number
If you are in danger right now, call this number. Escrow is not an emergency service and cannot send anyone to you.
where to report
Call the Tourist Police 24-hour hotline on 1155, which has English-speaking officers and can go with you to a local police station, or dial 191 for general police. You can also go straight to a government hospital's One Stop Crisis Centre (OSCC), such as Nakornping Hospital in Chiang Mai, and staff there can help you decide whether to involve police.
what to bring
You do not need a police referral to get a medical exam at an OSCC hospital, though some hospitals ask for a referral letter only if you want the exam results sent to police.
the exam window
OSCC hospitals can examine you and collect evidence at any time you come in, but treatment to prevent HIV and emergency contraception work best if taken within 72 hours of the assault.
the deadline
Under Thai law you generally have up to 10 years to file a criminal complaint for rape, but only 3 months if it involves a spouse or indecent assault in a private place. Reporting sooner helps preserve evidence and keeps the case stronger.
