What should I do if my 60-day tourist visa in Thailand was stamped for only 30 days?

ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello,

I came back into Thailand at the beginning of the month, and I’ve just noticed my passport has been stamped wrong.

I am on a 60day tourist (e)visa, but I have only been stamped in for 30days. at the bottom of the stamp, they wrote “Evisa”

Will I need to go and get this changed at immigration?

Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is facing a problem where their 60-day tourist visa was incorrectly stamped for only 30 days upon re-entering Thailand. Community members share their experiences, indicating that the correction typically needs to be handled at the original port of entry (airport) rather than at a local immigration office. Several comments emphasize the importance of checking the visa stamp immediately after passing through immigration to catch any errors on the spot.

Happened to me also in December. Went back to the airport and it was a quick fix. It did require an explanation when I got my extension in Hua hin. But easy to follow the stamp trail

This happened to me twice before, it's a bit annoying! They've been able to sort mine out at the local immigration office in the past, but that was a while ago. The second time I caught it before I left the booth at the airport.

I think this is a good time to remind folks to immediately check your stamps when passing through passport control or at an immigration office. Mistakes can easily be made.

I never leave the area until I've checked it.

You most likely need to go back to the airport (or port of entry) where you were stamped in to correct your stamp. Not at the local immigration office.
