Hi, very new and confused about the visas. I am British and have nearly used my first 90 day visa that I brought with me. Do I now fill in form TM 7 for an extension for another 30 days? Then I'm not leaving here until th 31st of March So after the 30 day extension am I the required to do a visa run and then apply for another 90 day visa? TIA

A friend of friend said they were banned from Thailand for staying over 180 days on tourist visa enter exit etc. has anyone heard of this? I thought it was infinite - they can reject but not ban you from Thailand?

My retirement visa is due for renewal on Aug. 9th. Is there a grace period after this date, or if I stay past this date will it be considered an overstay? Thank you.

Hello 👋 I have been residing in Thailand with a Non-B visa for more than a year and have a valid work permit. The expire date of the Non-B visa 21 August, but the expire date of the work permit (blue book) is 31 December. So, just now I not work any more but I want to stay and enjoy holiday in Thailand till end of the year. Can I apply to extension the Non-B visa by myself until the end of the work permit to immigration office?

I came to Bangkok in a Tourist Re-Entry Visa with a permit till 21 July. I have a return flight booked on 20th afternoon. But suddenly a Curfew being announced in my country and assuming the flight will be cancelled.

So, in this case will Airport Immigration extend my stay? Or where and how to place my issue?

If anyone could suggest me please.

IMMIGRATION OFFICE CLOSURES May 2024

Immigration offices nationwide will be closed on:

**Monday 6 May: Substitute for Royal Coronation Day

Friday 10 May: Royal Ploughing Ceremony Day

Wednesday 22 May: Visakha Bucha**

Plan accordingly.

* Land borders are open like normal during holidays.

If you have a stamp that is expiring during holidays when the immigration offices are closed and you show up at the immigration office on the very next working day you will not be fined for overstay and can get your extension like normal. But you will get an overstay stamp in your passport that says; "overstay xxx days, fine waived due to holiday/closure".

Morning everyone I have a question about tourist visa. I got a general entry for 30 days, it expires today and my flight has been pushed back to tomorrow instead of me flying tonight. Do I need to get an extension for just one more day?

Many thanks

Hello everyone.

I am currently studying in Thailand for a semester but I went to Laos in the meantime.

I did my re-entry and security then stamped the wrong date.

My visa was supposed to expire on April 5, 2024 but they wrote April 5, 2025. Leaving Thailand on April 30, I was wondering if I had to pay 50e again to extend my student visa? Because they got my passport wrong with the stamp and that suits me.

Do you think I still have to extend my visa? it says April 5, 2025 on my passport.. thank you!

A reminder that next Monday February 26th is a public holiday and all immigration offices around the country will be closed.

If your entry stamp falls due on the 24th, 25th or 26th then go get your extension before then. If you don’t you’ll be joining the hordes of people going on Tuesday 27th. Many immigration offices will be super busy because of the 3 day closure. You won’t get a fine because the offices were closed but you’ll still get a stamp (in Thai) that says “overstay X days. Fine waived due to closure”.

Land borders and airports are not affected by public holidays.

Plan accordingly.
