DanceAllNight Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I am set to leave Thailand on the last day of my visa. I will clear immigration before the 12 am deadline of my visa date. However, I have a layover in Bangkok to my next destination. I am getting checked out before my visa expires in my departing city, but i will be in Bangkok (cleared immigration, however) with my visa past. Basically, is it a problem to clear immigration before 12 am but be in Bangkok for a layover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 If you go through departure immigration before your layover in Bangkok it will not be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lkv Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) Isn't Immigration nowadays cleared in Bangkok for connecting international flights from/to domestic destinations? Edited July 26, 2018 by lkv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some carriers have international flights that are set up that you clear immigration at a airport within the country and connect to another flight in Bangkok. Been that way for a few years now.

Been that way for a few years now. If you fly direct to an International destination I get it, but generally, since Immigration is in International Departures and he is taking a domestic flight first, I would have thought that Immigration is cleared in Bangkok in transit. Are you saying it depends on the carrier and their arrangement with Immigration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a exit from domestic arrivals at BKK for the purpose. You show your boarding pass to enter the international departure area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
