IMMIGRATION OFFICE CLOSURES August 2024
Immigration offices nationwide will be closed on:
Monday 12 August: Queen Mother Sirikit's Birthday
Plan accordingly.
* Land borders are open like normal during holidays.
If you have a stamp that is expiring during holidays when the immigration offices are closed and you show up at the immigration office on the very next working day you will not be fined for overstay and can get your extension like normal. But you will get an overstay stamp in your passport that says; "overstay xxx days, fine waived due to holiday/closure".
TLDR : Answer Summary
Immigration offices across Thailand will be closed on August 12, 2024, in observance of Queen Mother Sirikit's Birthday. Travelers are advised that land borders will remain open during this holiday. If your visa stamp is expiring during the closure, you will not be fined for overstaying if you visit the immigration office on the next working day; however, you will receive an overstay stamp indicating the days of overstay with a note that the fine is waived due to the holiday.
