I have an overstay on my passport from last year - it should have been a day, but due to flooding and the immigration office being closed, it became 8 days. Has anyone had experience of getting a DTV specifically in London, with an overstay on their passport?

If it was a 1 off, you should be OK. You paid the fine, the Immigration police case is closed, albeit the overstay is still in their system records

He had a hip replacement at Bumrungrad. How he did it on overstay was a mystery to us. They want passport and visa details. At least they have when ai hace gone and used that place for 25++ years

I think most of that was to clear the 6 year overstay. I think the 1 year O was a freebie lol

I woukd think so for most. Agents can make most issues dissappear. An older guy who drank in same bar as us in Bamgkok had a6 year overstay disappear and a new O Retirement included for the 400k fee a couple of years ago :-)

Yeah as it is MFA issuing it not Immigration. MFA does not really seem to care :-) Thai Fiefdoms. I am assuming the MFA can see all the persons immigration record.

Hard to say. I'm applying soon and also overstayed by a few days once but I am not worried. Just have to go with the application and find out.
