How can I correct an incorrect date on my Thailand visa to avoid overstaying?

Visa Correction Overstay Issues Immigration Process

Jan 23, 2020

ORIGINAL POSTER

Realising my visa had an incorrect date stamp on it making me a 21 day over stay. I went to the local immigration office to have it amended. 

After 4 attendances to the immigration office, totaling 16 hours over 3 days, and my landlords getting a lesson on the TM30, I have it amended! 😅

Woo hoo! 

My fault for not alerting the airport immigration officer to my 60 day visa. Oopsies. Lesson learnt.

I also learned to treat immigration offices like I do temples and immigration officers like gods. 🙏
