jonw8uk Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 you will be ok to pay the fine and leave. If you are stopped by police/immigration before leaving - random stop, roadside check etc you will be detained.

Lampang2 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 They will let you go home if you make it to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ubonjoe Posted October 16, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2016 You can leave at the airport and pay the overstay fine (max 20k baht if 40 days or more). No detention. If more than 90 days but less than a year you could be banned from entering the country for a year. A assume you were not aware that you could of gotten an extension up to 90 days at a time for medical treatment. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy50 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Not a lot of info in your post. But if you don't want to come back, what's the problem? just pay the fine and leave. You will be blacklisted for a period of 1 to 5 years. But if arrested while on overstay, you will be blacklisted for 10 years, and have days or weeks in some sweaty cell before being booted out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference was already explained to him as well as the maximum fine, and in his O/P he already stated he wasn't concerned about being black listed, so telling us the length of his stay serves no purpose.

Keep ya head down till your flight He should definitely book his outward flight ASAP (if he hasn't already done so) and always carry around with him a printed-off booking confirmation or e-ticket in the meantime. Would probably not act as a cast-iron guarantee against being detained in the event of being stopped, but might assist him in pleading a case for sympathetic treatment.

What's this IDCI detention (centre?) is it something terrible that everyone seems to say to avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDC = Immigration Detention Center. It is the jail you are incarcerated in if arrested and awaiting deportation. It is actually no worse than other jails in Thailand, but this is the only one foreigners will usually see the inside of. All Thai jails are extremely unpleasant and (if you value your health, physical and mental) should be avoided. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the one who asked for help and you want to come back with this response. If makes a big difference with the length of time but given you want to be uncivil I wouldn't find it within my goodwill to help someone with your attitude and just say lots of luck.

He is not the op... and op just wants to leave. Doesn't care about blacklist so basically it doesn't matter how long he overstayed. Op. Go to airport. Report overstay spontaneously to immigration officer. Pay. Leave and dont look back. Goodluck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritTim Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 The only thing I would add to the above is to allow plenty of extra time at the airport. Ultimately, you should not have any special difficulty. They will fine you, and most likely blacklist you, but you will be allowed to go. However, if your overstay is a long one, they may want to grill you, and make you sweat first. Just make sure there is plenty of time for this, without risking missing your flight. Be smiling and apologetic. Be honest about how you ended up on overstay. You will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
