CMSteve Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 yes 500B/day and you pay before you international flight(BKK) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommers Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 If you have a through ticket & check in at International in CM you will be classed as a CIQ passenger. As such you will go through Immigration in CM and then make a direct transfer to your international flight in BKK. You will be given a CIQ sticker at the CM check-in and must wear it at all times until you leave BKK on your outbound flight. In CM you will be in the International departure lounge after going through Immigration but will be carried on the domestic flight. In BKK you will follow the CIQ signs and the THAI staff who are there to guide you through to the international security screening & into the International Terminals. CIQ means Customs & Immigration Quarantine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario2008 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Overstay 500 baht a day, pay after having checked in and going through immigration. Will take some extra time, but not that much. Just check-in 2 hours before the flight will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muchogra Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Lawrence, I think you should confirm by calling the Immigration yourself. The members who have confirmed the B500 per day may not have had experienced it themselves recently. About 11 years, my friend and his wife, both foreigners, had their housekeeper (also a foreigner) overstayed for 2 years. But then the maximum fine was B20,000. He also had his friend, a top cop at the airport accompanying him. I was there also. Things may have changed by now. Better to check it out yourself by calling the Immigration to avoid hazard.

eyecatcher Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Last year I overstayed 2 days and did the immigration CIQ check in at CM. I was fully expecting a fine, but I think because they were so quiet (early morning) I think it was easier just to let me pass. Having said that, I was always under the impression that they would allow a lenience of 3 days before they started the 500bt a day. But even a 4 day fine is preferable to another trip to Mae Sai i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffreyMcCollum Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Last August, just a little over a year ago, at CNX, my visa was expired by some 27 days or so if I reember. I was taking a morning Air asia flight to KL to get a new visa (Non O from the Non B I had) Had 20,000 Bt in my pocket, expecting maybe 16,000 fine. Handed over my passport, he looked at it, looked at the computer screen then at me. Again he looked at my passport, the computer screen in front of him, then me again. I was quiet and polite. He stamped my passport and I walked through. I had expected to have some one walk up to me soon while I waited for my flight, got on the plane, and nothing was ever said about it. I know I was lucky. I hear 1 day grace period. But be ready for the worst, this is Thailand ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceChee Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Thanks Jeffrey I will take the 2000 baht or hope it is a lucky day for me as we all say this is Thailand !

jacktrip Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) taking the 20k route may be cheaper long term even with deportation, but I guess the short stint in prison could be life altering. Edited August 30, 2012 by jacktrip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
