ThaiEye Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 My two cousins are with me just outside Bangkok. Their free 2 month tourist visas run out tomorrow, 31 July. They wish to extend for another 30 days at cost of 1,900 each. According to an expat this morning, immigration at Jaeng Wattana is closed on a Saturday and Sunday. Then what to do? If they go to immigration at Jaeng Wattana on Monday, the next day immigration re-opens after the weekend they'll be on a two day involuntary over-stay. Then, on this small overstay can they still extend their tourists visas for another 30 days? Passenger van and guide for my cousins is already booked and paid for to take us to Kanchanaburi a little later today, so today is not a fine time to go Jaeng Wattana. But, if the worse comes to the worse... Thank you very much for info in advance. PS: Official immigration website is a joke for info, they still have an office at Suan Phlu!

Lite Beer Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 They could have gone any time this week. Usually they will allow going on Mondays as they are closed for the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Lite Beer, so this means they should get their 30 day extension and not have to pay a two day over-stay? If got to pay, then nevermind..

Lite Beer Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 They should not be fined. But then again...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gippy Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Can you take an hour out of your day trip to stop at the Kanchanaburi immigration office and extend the tourist visa there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
