Hello, I went with my American friend to Samut Prakan Immigration to extend her visa free entry for 30 days. After handing over her passport to the officer we learned that the immigration officer at Suvarnabhumi gave her the wrong stamp which gives her 90 days instead of the expected 30 days as pictured below. The person at the desk in Samut Prakarn told us to go to the airport to get it fixed and insisted that she cannot actually stay for 90 days.
So I have two questions, is this stamp valid for 90 days? If not, where would we need to go in the airport to get the correct stamp?
Thank you in advance.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses a situation where a traveler received an incorrect 90-day stamp instead of the expected 30-day stamp upon entering Thailand. Community responses clarify that the stamp is invalid for 90 days for US passport holders, who are eligible for only a 30-day entry with a potential 30-day extension. The advice includes going to Suvarnabhumi Airport to have the stamp corrected immediately, while emphasizing the responsibility of the traveler regarding overstays and associated fines.
