Hi, my boyfriend just got a work permit but he missed the expiry date to extend his non-b

Anyone experience this issue? Although the agency said they will manage it but they fucked up many times, so we're quite worried now Does he need to leave Thailand? Any advices, thank you🙏

Community members advise that he needs to address the situation with immigration urgently since he currently has no valid visa.

Yes he has no valid visa at this moment, if he can get COVID extension that's the only way he can stay there ,but otherwise he has to leave ASAP,he will be charged 500 baht for every day that he stayed in thailand after the expiry date of non-imm visa

If he "missed the deadline," does that means he's on overstay?

If his Non-B has expired then it's finished, he'll need to apply for a new one. The bigger issue is if he's on overstay. If he is, he needs to go to immigration on Monday (no later), pay the overstay fine (500 baht per day) and apply for a "covid unable to travel extension."

That doesn't make sense. He's either on a Non-B, on a visa exempt entry, or in the country illegally on overstay. And if he went to immigration, he can't be on overstay.
