What will happen if the amnesty period ends and borders remain closed in Thailand?

they should extend grace for retirement Visa, non b, non o, work.permit holders and the like.

Probably see you at the airport

If you have problems contact “Thai visa Centre. Contact Grace. Problems fixed.

There are plenty of flights to leave Thailand. Most countries Embassy's have stated that you should return home ASAP. Thai Immigration clearly state what's in the image. If you are using the amnesty that means you have no visa and as such once boarders reopen you must leave within 7 days and apply for a new visa.

I would wait to something like mid July for government to clarify. My bet is they will extend the grace period. If not or no announcement, time to look for flights.

Airport is open for departing flights , no shortage what so ever . Problem is with inbound flights.

My feeling is that unless you have correct visa anyone after July 31st will be on overstay. Had plenty time to arrange transport home.

I think you are right. They have given people plenty of chance to either leave or sort out their visa to stay. I believe come 1st August there will be a lot of people staying on overstay and have to pay fines when they eventually leave.

Yep, same here!!! What will happend at the end of July!!!!!

Plenty of flights leaving Thailand every week.. Qatar Airlines, Eva Air, Klm to name a couple.

No one knows for sure. If gambling were not illegal in Thailand, I would suspect they will probably extend it, or if not, at least give at least some grace period.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand is talking about September for the resumption of flights. Thai had previously said no way they would fly "at least" until August, and that will probably be later now.

Now there have still been limited flights throughout this. But far from normal service and as you allude there would be a big rush. So my money would be on they probably will extend it out at least until there is some semblance of a normal flight situation.

It's possible they won't. Worst case, if they don't and you have to go on overstay, it's 500B/day and is capped at 20,000B. Presuming you surrender at the airport they won't ban you until you overstay for 90 days. So that's really the worst case, and I doubt it would come to that.

Yes technically, legally, they could say no and arrest and throw in prison everyone who isn't out of here on 1 August. But realistically that's not going to happen. It wouldn't happen in normal times, and they realise now is not normal.
