Rob13 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I'm currently on a 30 day extension on a VOA. The extension runs out on the 21st. Can I get a one week extension on the 30 day extension I already have. It can save me a couple hundred bucks on a flight back home if I can. Thanks.

elviajero Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) There isn't a "one week extension" as such, but you can apply for another extension (1,900 baht). It will be denied but they will almost certainly give you 7 days to leave the country. Edited August 7, 2016 by elviajero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 You can apply for a 7 day extension, pay 1900 baht and be granted 7 days to leave the country. FYI you got a 30 day visa exempt entry not a VOA which is for 15 days and costs 1000 baht for those from certain countries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob13 Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) All I really need is 4 more days. What if I just show up at the airport and pay the fine? It'd about the same baht-wise(2000 vs 1900) wouldn't it?. Would there be other consequences involved? Edited August 7, 2016 by Rob13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is the same cost, but if you get caught on overstay you can be arrested, fined, detained, deported and banned for 5 years.

Rob13 Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 One last question. If the extension ends on the 21st, I can leave on the 22nd with no repercussions? In other words.I get one day overstay gratis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave from either airport in Bangkok you will not be fined for one day of overstay but you will get a stamp for the overstay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
