Can someone explain to me how the visa duration is calculated? I just arrived, I have a 90 day visa, starting from 30-July. My passport stamp says it should end on the 27th October, but wolfram alpha and my flight out 😰 say the 28th October. I can (costly) change my flight out, or beg for a 7 day extension, but I’d rather know if it’s my mistake before I spend the money.
Answer summary
The duration of a 90-day visa in Thailand is calculated by counting the day of entry as the first day. For a visa issued on July 30, 2018, this means the visa is valid until October 27, 2018, totaling 89 days from the day of entry. There are options available if the visa holder is concerned about overstaying, such as seeking a 7-day extension for a fee or leaving the country and receiving a fine for a short overstay.

The O/P has two choices;

do nothing, get an 'overstay under 24 hours fine waived' stamp at the airport when they fly out

OR

go to immigrations' get an 'application for extension not approved' 7 day stamp to get out of thailand for 1900baht.

Any way you slice it, those are the choices available. ;)

Thanx one and all for the suggestions, we're done. :)

If you're indeed on a 90 day visa (which is ONLY a Non-Immigrant Type one) your admitted until date is 89 days from the date you stamped in.

Now now, Jonathan Daniel, we're all here to help each other. How about you dial back the faux indignation a notch or three?

Jonathan Daniel Extension is 30 days, so if a month has 31 days you still do not loose a day, but your counting is wrong.

They count the day you arrive as day 1 ;)

App is wrong. Day of entry is day number 1, so it should be Monday July 30 2018 plus 89 days.
