Answer summary
A user shared an experience where their non-o visa wasn't issued in time, leading them to get a 30-day visa on arrival. After an extension, when re-entering Thailand, they discovered their immigration officer mistakenly stamped their visa expiration as May 2025 instead of May 2024. The comments emphasized the importance of checking visa stamps immediately after receiving them, advising that incorrect stamps have to be corrected on the spot to avoid issues later.

ALWAYS check the stamp. If the goof it you can get them to fix it on the spot.. If you discover there is an issue later it's at least

You can't stay until 2025. Wrong stamps do not change how long you can actually stay.

It happens all the time. Wrong date, month and year. Best to check the date and visa after receiving your passport back.
