If you pay the 20,000 THB fine for overstaying your visa at the airport, you will be blacklisted and deported after spending a few days in the airport detention facility. However, if you are apprehended by the police or immigration authorities beforehand, the same 20,000 THB fine applies, but you will first be placed in pre-trial detention; depending on your financial resources and the skill of your lawyer, this could potentially lead to a prison sentence of several years!
