I ve just cleared a 10 months overstay at the Nong khai border crossing, no problems, just a moral lesson and some questions by the immigration officer paid the 20K Baht fine and had two stamps on my passport one with the exit stamp and one with the overstay case number with the total fine paid.

then went straight ahead on the same day to apply for double entry tourist visa at the Vientiane consulate and got my visa tomorrow afternoon without any problems and returned to Thailand, no issues or questions,. except an officer checking the body temperatures of all arriving passengers for Ebola symptoms .

you're a hero.....

you're a hero.....

Or a zero....

I'm glad to hear you don't have Ebola!

Only 10 months not even worth mentioning.

yeh..bloke down our way hit 14 year overstay...paid his 20k and back in by lunchtime.....

Where do you actually pay the overstay in Nong Khai? At the border departure booth? I have a Non B extension that was cancelled last week and am going to Laos tomorrow.

My last school cancelled it but it's only in the immigration data base, no cancellation stamp in my passport yet. Do I have to go to this immigration office 2km away that I've heard of? Can it be done on a Sunday? Or only Monday to Friday?

Overstays are normally paid at the bridge.

But since you still have an extension that is still shown as being valid they might send you back to the immigration office to have it canceled.

so much for their blacklisting plans. Immigration don't even follow their own rules.

The new overstay rules have no been approved yet. So it is not possible for them to be enforced.

August 29th has been set as the Final Crackdown so true to form any repeat offender is going to try to milk it to the last day.

But as Joe said the new law has not been passed yet but since Gen P. is now PM there shouldn't be much delay.

Where are people getting the 29th date from. That is only the date when the new police order goes into effect and part of that allows for 30 day extensions for exempt entries.

There has been no official announcement as to when the new overstay rules will start. The only thing has been said is that they are waiting for approval.

A visa run agent told me that could be "fixed" for 1500 at the border. Anyone had experience with this?
