ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The penalty for overstaying a DTV visa in Thailand is 500 baht per day. For five days of overstay, the total penalty is 2,500 baht. While traditionally the payment must be made in cash (Thai baht), recent discussions suggest that Thai immigration may be installing credit card payment terminals at Suvarnabhumi Airport, though it is uncertain if they are currently operational. Therefore, it's advisable to carry cash for the penalty, as there is no guaranteed acceptance of credit cards at this time.
