I have got 60 day tourist visa, but my flight is on the 61st day. Would that considered as overstay?

Appreciate your responses.

————————

Update (Dec 24, 2023),

I checked it with the passport control guy who stamped my passport. He said that is not going to be a problem as long as I leave within 24 hours after the last day indicated on my passport.

no, not at all. If you overstay in Thailand, you are definitely paying. The flight staff at check in have absolutely nothing to do with it

Double check your counting knowing that the day you arrive is day 1. This puts a lot of people an extra day in Thailand as well

You don't get the dreaded "OVERSTAY" stamp, you get a smaller one that says "One day overstay, fine waived"
