ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi guys, bit of an urgent question. I was going to go in to extend my tourist visa today but it turns out the officer at the airport stamped me for 30 days rather than 60 days, so I've overstayed now. I'm on the way to the immigration office now, but is this the right thing to do? Will they fix the issue there or should I just pack up and go now and try to re enter with my visa? Thanks in advance
