    Some agents can arrange (fraudulent) medical extensions. I am unaware of any other options other than expensive and highly inconvenient trips out of the country and back.

    As BritTim mentions, with the right agent, having the right contact at immigration, a medical extension is probably the only route, as it can be converted into something else. 

     

  2. Many posters logically assume he is on a nine month overstay but this is not the case. Immigration counts overstay until the date of amnesty.

     

    Two friends, who were on overstay since February, had their case 'fixed' via an agent, 6 months later and one of them didn't even have to pay the full 20k fine. The exact count of days until amnesty was notated in their passports. 

     

    Another point, whether or to what extent hotels report on their guest's immigration status, or how proactive immigration follows up is unclear. My friends stayed all those months at a high end hotel in Bangkok and management never mentioned anything nor did immigration show up.

     

    Also, the agents that were consulted to fix the overstay situation, said that many hotels don't report to immigration and that generally immigration doesn't proactively follow up on data they receive from hotels.

     

    Whether the latter is true or not I have no way of verifying.

    No air mailing seriously? not even a tiny letter? Hmm I understood cargo was kind of regular at least as I haven't noticed any supply disruptions at all... amazon etc also going on pretty much as normal

    I have sent an EMS parcel to The Netherlands a few weeks ago. It arrived fairly quick after. No delays. On the other hand, a friend received a secured priority parcel from The Netherlands recently and took about 1.5 months.
