Urgent

Answer summary

A user is seeking urgent advice on what to do as their visa extension is set to expire on March 1st, just two days before their flight on March 3rd. Recommendations from community members include changing the flight if possible, considering a border run for an additional 30 days, or accepting a fine for overstaying, which would involve a 500 baht charge per day at the airport upon departure.

either change your flight or take the chance.... if you are stopped you will either be rolled for some cash or taken to immigration jail until you are fined and departed.

now there is no need for scaremongering. It is highly unlikely that anything of the sort is going to happen to the O/P on an overstay of two days with proof he's flying out. :/

the best bet is to do a border bounce sometime after that for an additional 30 days around FEB 10-20 range or pay the 1,900THB 7 day extension [which IMHO is a bad investment], good luck....

no offense here...but its still Jan how did you receive a 90-day stamp until 1 March...do you have a passport from one of those countries that allow 90 days for Fly-In?

You could also just do a border bounce and get an additional 30 days....

So you already extended by 30 days at the immigration office for 1900baht right?

You could go and apply for another extension which will be denied and you'll get a 7 day stamp to exit thailand (it costs the same price as an extension 1900baht).

OR

You pay a 500 baht overstay fine for the days past your admitted until date when you fly out
