Hello, all,

I need some help from those in the know. I know that this topic has been expounded on in numerous forums, but I need some quick results from individuals who are willing to share a helping hand.

I missed my flight from Bangkok to USA today, July 11. I have rescheduled a flight via China Airlines that leaves July 15. HOWEVER, my 30 day visa exemption stamp expires July 14.

What are my options regarding this situation? Do I need to go to the immigration office to get a 7 day extension? Am I facing an arrest? Should I "take the hit on the nose" and pay for a one-day overstay? Do immigration authorities offer a 24 hour grace period?

Please respond quickly. I thank you in advance for any and all responses.

Also, what is the fine for a one-day overstay?

The fine is 500 baht a day.

But not charged if you only have one day overstay , so you will not pay anything.

500 bath. Cheaper than a 7 days extention by the immigration

As you are departing from airport next day departure is not subject to fine but overstay stamp may be put in your passport during routine processing - it has no adverse effects.
