Should I extend my visa or pay the overstay fee for three days in Thailand?

and just like that we're done. The O/P knows the fines, they know the possible ramifications and they can make their own decision. What we can't do is decide FOR them..

It is bad judgement to even consider overstaying your visa!!

The fine is 500 Thb a day, so it will be 3 days overstay makes 1.500 Thb. Cheaper that the 1.900 Thb Extension of Stay, but 3 days long you have to be on very low profile, if checked it will be prison, court, Immigration Dentention Center, deportation at own costs and black listed for 5 years. Choise is yours, save 400 Thb and if not lucky a nice story to tell at home, or pay the 400 Thb extra and be legal in the country.

Even one day overstay is illegal. If you want to seek advice for illegal act, maybe better to post to another group...

Overstay fine is 500baht per day. It's not a "fee" it's a "fine".

why would you want advice for a patently illegal act? itz disrespectful to the country and the people in it. You would save 400 and take the chance of being arrested (however remote). why bother with all that. pay the 1900 and you will have absolutely no problems at all.

It’s always Better to extend. But also changing your flight is another option also.

Extending your visa cost 1900, overstay is 500/day, also having the risk for getting caught
