On a HAPPY NOTE. 😁

WE ALL RECEIVED THANKS today..

with an Update..

For the helpful advice received today from our Members and Moderators.

Many forum members were following the post.

...of the forum member who earlier today POSTED he was on overstay 14 days.... ASKED for HELP.

...he followed all of our Advice...

...went to his Thai Immigration office today...

...was granted the 30 days extension of stay that he should have obtained 14 days ago.

Paid the 500 Thai baht daily fine and STAMPED IN for 30 days from his ORIGINAL ENDING DATE..

Thankfully, the young man can now enjoy the remaining time in Thailand and return home as planned.

Moral of the story...

Pay Attention to your STAMPED in ending date received on arrival. And go your local Thai Immigration office to get your 30 day extension of stay on time... NOT on OVERSTAY.

A forum member recently shared a positive update after experiencing a 14-day overstay in Thailand. With the help and advice from community members and moderators, he visited the Thai Immigration office and successfully obtained a 30-day extension of stay. He paid a daily fine for the overstay but received a new stamp extending his stay from the original end date. This highlights the importance of noting the stamped end date upon arrival and seeking timely extensions to avoid overstaying.
