July 8, 201510 yr I overstayed by 5 days and I will be catching a plane tomorrow at BKK to head back home. I'm currently in Krabi at the moment and am about to book a flight from the airport here to Bangkok. Am I fine to pay my overstay fine and catch the plane here in Krabi if I show them my ticket out of Thailand? Or will I be imprisoned? Thanks!
July 8, 201510 yr You'll pay 5 days overstay and be on your way, in fact if there is a queue at immigration and there is a marshaling officer, make yourself known to have an overstay and you may even be fast-tracked :-)
July 8, 201510 yr Popular Post When you board the flight in Krabi you will just be showing your passport for indentation purposes to the airline and security. You will not need to pay the fine for overstay until you clear immigration on departure from the country in Bangkok.
July 9, 201510 yr Just in other words what @ubonjoe has written. There is no immigration checkpoint in Krabi. No one will check your passport for visa/permission to stay there.

July 9, 201510 yr If you fly Bangkok air or Thai from Krabi, and have same day/night ticket from BKK, you clear immigration in Krabi in terminal one, if you have ticket from BKK with networked airlines. Then you check in all the way in Krabi and pay you fee there.
July 9, 201510 yr If you fly Bangkok air or Thai from Krabi, and have same day/night ticket from BKK, you clear immigration in Krabi in terminal one, How can they do that. In BKK all passengers leave at the domestic terminal, if someone "had cleared immigration" would find himself in Thailand again and could leave if he/she wanted.
July 9, 201510 yr I cleared my 199 days overstay one week ago, on Thursday 02, 2015. It was in a border with Laos, "Nong Khai", near Vientiane. With this in mind, and with all the facts I read on this forum, I think I can say you: "No worry".

Yes it would appear to present some risks. Nevertheless it has been done that way from some domestic airports for years. http://www.suvarnabhumiairport.com/en/1083-domestic-to-international-ciq
