Many mixed answers
Some countries have 90days visa
Not sure what passport you are holding. I was at the Mae Sai border once and the immigration officer didn't know that either, went to the supervisor and there was a such a thing as a 90days tourist visa.
Did you count arriving 2days later depending on where you are flying from?

You can buy a cheap ticket from somewhere in Thailand to Vietnam one way. You don't use the ticket but you have it .

Buy a bus ticket one to go asia..that says you leave thailand at 30 days....then just extend days at immigration

Not always. I accidentally made my return flight 90 days after my visa application and then realized the Tourist visa is only 60 days. They still approved me.

I came November last year from the UK on a tv60 with the intention of extending 30 days, my return flight was booked for 90 days returning, I flew with Qatar no problem

@Peter ******
might be because you had a return trip on the same airline? If Thailand sends you back, you already have a paid flight.

Pay over stay at airport and apologise 🙏

@Andrew ******
I take it you're unaware that there is a crack-down by Immigration now for overstay

Is that a retirement visa you're getting?

@Steve *******
tourist is 60 day with a 30 day extension, if so chosen! Overstay a day or two is a common mistake. You may or may not have to pay 500tb per day OS. As others say apologize and pay the fee if required. They will stamp your PP with OS on it.You can also consider changing your flight. Although even if you have a flexible ticket it’s very expensive.

No such thing as a 90 day tourist visa. Best is a 60-dayBrandon ************

@Kevin ************
The TR visa is for 60 days entry NOT 90 days.Brandon ************
@Kevin ************
for a tourist visa you usually need to show a flight out of Thailand within 60 days of arriving. You can try submitting what you have and see if the embassy emails you for something differentKevin *************
OP@Brandon ***********
Cheers I will do that 👍Brandon ************
@Kevin ************
yes. But you need to check with your airline as they may require you to show proof of leaving Thailand within 30 days if you travel without a visa or within 60 days if you travel with a tourist visaKevin *************
