I am quitting my job on July 10th (a friday). Now due to the distance between my province and the nearest immigration office it may be physically impossible to

1. Cancel my work permit

2. cancel my work visa

3. leave the country (I will go to Cambodia to get a proper Tourist visa so I don't have to worry about the 15 day rule and can pack and enjoy my last few days in Thailand at my leisure)

all in the same day.

I was planning on doing the paper work on the friday and leave for cambodia the next day but I desperately want to avoid overstay fines and 2000 baht 7 day visas if possible

I don't mind jumping through hoops but I am quite confused as to which hoops need jumping through. How is this done by the books? Thanks.

You don't have to do anything but leave.

There is no longer a requirement to turn in your work permit.

When you leave your extension of stay will end so you don't need to go to immigration. You only have to go to immigration if you want an extension.

If you had a multiple entry visa it would still be good and you would not have to leave.

Okay so just so I understand it right, when I leave my extension gets cancelled and I won't be hit with an overstay. I am jut confused because the visa is attached to the job and saturday morning when I am planning on leaving I technically am unemployed, I won't be hit with an overstay. Wow, that is easy. Thanks. And then when I am in Cambodia I just apply for a tourist visa and then come back for 3 weeks to sort things out (and do that thing wherfe I am not miserable and not stressed...what is it called again?))

No hastle, no stress and no overstay.

Just make your trip to Cambodia on Saturday. Get your visa then come back and get things sorted out.
