Extension Of 30-day Stamp-in..?

[ChrisP]

I've searched.. but can't find the answer. (I'm sure it's been asked though!)

My next visit will be for 32 days including day of arrival and day of departure.

I was thinking to get a regular 30-day Stamp-In at Imm arrivals (Not Visa on Arrival)

Can I get an extension for the xtra 2 days..?

What's the maximum extension on that stamp?

You can get an extension of up to 10 days for 1900 baht. Because your stay exceeds 30 days airlines are unlikely to carry unless you have at least a tourist visa. On another thread you were talking of arriving on a Non-Immigrant B visa.

Thanks Dr PP..

The Non-Imm B will be for my long-stay visit next April..

This is for my imminent trip in December.

ChrisP, why not pare your trip back to 30 days? Besides, won't you get a better airfare keeping your round trip to 30 days?

I just got a ten day extension to my stamp, for 1,900 baht. I used five days of it. Not that we can ever recommend an overstay, but it would have been cheaper to pay the overstay! In fact, the lady at the Chiang Mai Immigration advised me in July to do the overstay instead of paying 1,900 baht.

and of course that lady at chiang mai immigration will be right there to pull you out of the IDC in the remote chance you are caught.

never overstay, period
