Hello everybody,
I arrived in Thailand on the 3/aug/2019, no issue at the border as it is my first time to travel here.
A while ago, not realising I could stay only 30 days, I booked a flight from Thailand to Indonesia on the 5/sept/2019.
This is a 3 days overstay in Thailand (French passport)
I went to the immigration on Friday wanting to get a 3 days extension or at least notify them. They asked me to fill the TM7. Which I did but they refused the process my application because I did not do the TM30...
I intend to come back to Thailand after Indonesian for another 30 days before I can get a proper work permit.
I am renting a condo with a 1 year contract so I can get the TM30.
However, if I get the 90 days extension for just 3 extra days is it going to get cancel as soon as I leave the country?
And what will happen when I return from Indonesia on the 16/sept/2019?
Cheers
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is concerned about an upcoming 3-day overstay due to a lack of knowledge regarding visa rules after entering Thailand on a visa-exempt entry. They intend to apply for a 90-day extension, but commenters point out that a 30-day extension is typically granted for visa-exempt entries. The user is advised that any extension granted would be canceled upon departure, and they are provided with options to avoid penalties, including acquiring a TM30 and re-entry permits.
