Guys, has anyone been in a situation where your entry 30 day visa runs a mere couple of days before your next flight out of the country? Not to have issues in the future, do you go through the whole Changwattana ordeal and extend it or just pay those couple of days at the airport on the way out? Thanks for your input in advance
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around what to do when facing a short overstay of your 30-day Thai visa just days before a flight out of the country. Opinions vary on whether to extend the visa to avoid any potential issues or simply pay the overstay fee at the airport. Some users suggest that while the fine for a short overstay is relatively low (500 baht per day up to 90 days), it's generally better to avoid overstays to prevent any complications in future visa applications. Others share personal experiences, indicating that they had no issues leaving the country after minor overstays. There is advice to consider possible interactions with law enforcement or immigration officers, which could lead to complications if contacted during an overstay.
