June 20, 201115 yr Hi, My double entry tourist visa has been mistakenly stamped "Used" by the immigration officer when I used the first entry at the Cambodian/Thai border. I asked the officer about it, he told me he was sorry, stroke the stamp with a red pen and write something in Thai (I don't know what) in my passport. And he seemed quite annoyed, like he wasn't sure the corrections he was making would be enough to undo his mistake... I was wondering if this ever happened to one of you and if it could get me some troubles when I try to use the 2nd entry ? I heard that immigration officers have been known to be sometime fussy about visas, do you think I should try to check and sort things out at the immigration office while still in Bangkok ? Here is a photo of my visa, if anyone could tell me what is written in Thai and could give me some advices, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
June 20, 201115 yr According to my interpretor the writing across the top indicates that the Visa can be used 1 more time - all looks ok ps - not sure about all the black ink though
June 20, 201115 yr according to me ... terak's correct (it says it can be used once more). I would probably go to Immigration in BKK and have it checked out though
June 20, 201115 yr Mistakes do happen and he seems to have corrected it. But i must say not in the right way, as normally he has to sign the correction he made. Suspect it will not be a big deal, as from the stamps it is obvious the visa was only used 1 time so far.
June 20, 201115 yr Author I don't know yet if I'll apply for a 30 days extension, if so I'll check it out at the immigration office, if not, I guess I'll hope for the best next time I land at Suvarnabhumi Airport. Thanks all for the translations and feedbacks.
