I do not have experience on overstays. But since no one has yet to reply you, and you are extending your tv tomorrow, this is what will happen....... simple ..... you will be fine for overstaying your visa. Per day bht 500. Pay your fine at same time of applying for extension. Like I said, I do not have actual experience, but procedures are as above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggnog Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) Hi all, just a quick question.

I have been in this situation at Pattaya/Jomtien immigration office several times. If you get to the office first thing they will usually waive the overstay fee/stamp ( as you are seen to be making the effort ). Leave it till late and they will charge you the 500 baht and give you an overstay stamp in you PP. This is on top of the extension fee of 1900 baht. Not had any experience of any immigration office other than this one though. Edited February 16, 2007 by eggnog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lopburi3 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 You dug up a five month old thread to post a question? From Monday being a holiday there may be a possibility they would be open but have not seen anyone post that they are. Of course I also have to assume you are talking about Bangkok?

Well the initial thread was about Bangkok immigration opening on saturday which it seemed there was a little confusion about in the first place? It looked to me like Suan Plu was open on Saturday mornings as standard now, my query was if it would be open tomorrow and uneffected by the holiday - which is why I put tomorrows date after the 7 word sentence.

From Monday being a holiday there may be a possibility they would be open but have not seen anyone post that they are. Of course I also have to assume you are talking about Bangkok? I'm just curious about this: My visa was due to expire on Monday 30 July, but I extended a week early. This was fortunate because I didn't realise there was a public holiday on the day my visa expires....but...hypothetically... do they charge an overstay if you happen to be 2 days late because of public holidays, or do they practice leniency in these cases? I'm sure quite a few people get caught out like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopDogger Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Was late extending once due to a national holliday, in Pattaya @ the time and they didnt charge for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Normally they will not charge overstay if you show up after a holiday but there really is no reason to do so for normal 30 day extensions as you can go a week early and obtain the same extension (you do not lose any days by doing early).

Briggsy Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 The 7-day extension to the 30-day entry stamp used to be 500 Baht but now it's 1900 Baht. When did the cost go up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Years ago. Did it go up at the same time that they put the cost of a multiple re-entry permit up to 3800 Baht from 1000 Baht? This was about 3 years ago, I think. Or did it go up some time after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
