ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
Generally, a one-day overstay should not affect your ability to apply for a retirement visa in Thailand. While immigration officers may admonish you for overstaying and you may receive a stamp marking your overstay when leaving, as long as the overstay is less than 24 hours, the fine is waived and it should not impact your visa application. However, it's advisable to avoid any overstays, as interpretation and enforcement can vary among immigration officers.
