Visa Overstay Lost Passport Thai Embassy Travel Documents Emergency Assistance Police Report Visa Regulations Expat Advice

ORIGINAL POSTER

I lost my bag with all my passports, visa and bank cards in it. I had 30 day holiday visa, I am travelling for 41 days and was planning to fly to Vietnam to do the boarder run. Obviously now I can’t fly or extend my visa as I don’t have a passport. I am very far away from The Bangkok embassy to get my replacement documents. So I was planning on going back to the embassy a few days before I fly home and just being fined what ever the visa over stay is. I have police reports which proves I have had my passports and visas stolen. Does anyone see a problem with this, or had anything similar?

Thank you
