What are the recent changes to Thailand's visa rules regarding overstays as informed by the Penang consulate?
Just been informed in Penang that if you have any overstay you will be rejected for visa. Getting tough.
Answer summary
Recent information from the Penang consulate indicates that individuals with any overstay will face rejection when applying for a visa. This announcement highlights a stricter enforcement of visa regulations, with previous notices labeling many cases as 'high risk'.

It was stated as "high risk" in the announcement from Penang consulate in May... I guess their "high risk" means almost every case.
