Short Term Extension

[Saan]

I have a friend whose visa expires 8 days before his plane leaves for home. Can he get an 8 day extension in Chiang Mai if he shows his ticket or does he have to make a visa run to Mai Sai?

[Semper]

I think he can only get 7 days.

Apart from the 500 baht fine can an overstay affect a visa application in the future. In some countries an overstay means a disqualification from rentry for 2 or 3 years.

As this is Thailand and not some country a overstay will not disqualify you from returning the next day if you want
