Here, officers of Immigration in Phitsanulok confirm, no bans or fines for under 15s.

Pol. Capt. Upinya Boonruangnam : "A child under 15 years old won't be fined of overstaying and won't be barred from re-entering. A child from 15 - 18 years old will be fined from overstaying but will not be barred from re-entering."

I saw that post also earlier. i hope that all rumors about child/kids visa or rule will stop so that all parents will not be worrying about their kids.

Then why Chonburi Immigration ( jomtien and Sri Racha) and Chang Mai immigration says that all children who doesnt have visa and overstay need to go out of thailand and get visa before march 20 2016, if not they will get banned. im still confused.

How about kids age 1-13 years old who have 30 days VUA but expired? are they exempted or include into this new rule?

Children under the age of 15 are exempt from overstay fines but do get stamped for an overstay. Under the new banning rules children under the age of 18 will not be banned from re-entering the country.

Thanks, i asked this question because of one my friend, she went to immigration office here in Jomtien and they say her son is overstayed already and need to leave the country and come back before march 20 so that it will not get banned re entering Thailand.
