TLDR : Answer Summary

The inquiry about finding a visa agent to expedite a 60-day tourist e-visa approval in Thailand elicits various responses. Most commenters advise against seeking a visa agent, citing that obtaining a 60-day visa before arrival is unnecessary, as Americans can enter Thailand visa-exempt for 60 days. They emphasize that the embassy processes all visa applications uniformly, with no options for expedited services, and that paying for a tourist visa may be seen as unnecessary when a free visa exemption is available.

Where are you getting your information from Mars. You think you are the only case like this. It's nothing to worry about. Just come into Thailand they welcome you. Visa exempt just arrive it's free in the land of smiles.

People overstay in Thailand (whether accidentally or intentionally) all the time. If they get to the airport and pay the fine there is generally no repercussions returning to Thailand.

Some reports of people who have applied for visas for other countries but denied because of an overstay stamp from Thailand but returning to Thailand is usually not an issue.

Just dont do it repeatedly.

Why? There is absolutely no advantage to getting the tourist visa before you come. It'll just cost you more.

not sure how many days but i only had to pay 8,000 baht at the boarder.. the actual visa had a different expiration date from the stamp so i was confused.. im guessing around 15 days..

@Dane *****

a visa and an entry stamp are two completely different things so have their own dates. A visa is permission to enter the country within the validity time frame of the visa. An entry stamp is what you get when you enter the country and tells you how long you are allowed to stay in the country based on the type of visa you have. You can enter on the very last day the visa is valid and still get stamped in for the full time frame the visa grants.

usually it's 500 baht per day so that would be 16 days. Nothing to worry about

Paying $40 for a tourist visa is completely unnecessary. You’ll get a free stamp visa exempt on arrival.

Paying an agent, to get a $40 visa is just madness.

No, the Embassy will process your application just like any other, there is no fast-track or back-handers
