Can I extend my visa after it has expired or should I pay the fine instead?
My 30 days extension (on voa) expired yesterday. I'm leaving Thailand on the 23rd. Can I still buy another extension or am I better off paying the 6500 fine? Where to go for a covid extension, and any link to the relevant form? Thank you
Answer summary
The user is seeking advice on whether they can obtain another extension for their visa that has already expired, or if they should pay a fine of 6500 baht instead. Community comments suggest it may be cheaper to apply for a 30-day extension rather than pay the fine, advising the user to visit the immigration office. There is also concern about the potential risks associated with overstaying.

Not sure if you go to immigration they might give you a get out of dodge ultimatum as your visa is already expired

Cheaper to pay 1900baht than to pay 6500 and have the risk of having a ban to re enter the kingdom

Cheapest would be to do another 30 day extension rather than pay the 6500 fine

You need to go to immigration, apply there.
