Greetings all,

a story to act as a warning.I have a good friend who is here on a retirement visa. Nice guy and a bit forgetful. Apparently, he checked his passport a few months ago and mistakenly thought his visa ran out in July (that was his 90-day renewal not visa).

His visa expired for 30 days and immigration came to his house and arrested him. He spent the night in the local jail and went to court in the morning. The judge deported him and now he's in IDC at Suan Plu and will be there until they get him a flight back to Canada. The law states that a person who overstays more than one day and is apprehended, they are blacklisted for 5 years. He has money and is OK but this is an expensive lesson for him.

NEVER let your visa expire!

Hello people,

Arranging a Visa run is getting very inconvenient right now, what is the downside (other than the penalty fee) for overstaying? I came in on US passport visa exempt, got 30 days, then I extended another 30 days, and after that I will be here for another 30 at most.

Do you get blacklisted in the system, or be placed on some type of hold status to re-enter the country for a certain amount of time?

Thanks for the time

Good day!

I'm a new member to this group and I've read some posts and understand how the work permit and Non-B visa is linked.

Here is my question, I resigned from old school and they took my work permit which was cancelled by them without me last Monday (@ Lamphun MOL)! I still have my Non-B visa which expires on 18th Sep 2022 and thought it would be ok to stay until then. (New school told me the same thing) but just realised that It' not. (After I read some posts here, i think I need extension)

The old school went to Lamphun MOL and cancelled my work-permit and had never issued me a receipt. The director of the old school called the new school several times and embarrassed me, told them not to accept me. But, the new school tried calling to Lamphun MOL and trying to apply new one. What would be the best option for me to get this done? I believe the seniors here would be of a great help to me. 😃

I gave one month notice to resign (on my 3rd month of probation) and an official resignation letter to them but old school didn't accept it. Am I overstaying here? This monday would be already a week after the cancellation of work permit.

I already started working with the new school in Chiang Mai. Shall I go to the Chiang Mai immigration office tomorrow or Lamphun's one? The new school is trying their best to assist me and said they can handle it, asked me 25,000 Thb to apply a new one. But, I wana make sure it all went well without having problems here. Thanks in advance everyone♡.

What’s happens if you test positive for COVID a few days before your visa is set to expire and your departure flight home? I’m aware you will be quarantined but will they issue you a new visa?

Hi guys, one of my friends is coming to Thailand with some questions and info I hadn't heard about.

He is coming from Romania by plane in about a week. He says he will get a visa-on-arrival for 15 days? (I thought it was 45 or 30 days but they keep changing it, it seems.) And he also said the visa-on-arrival is non-extendable. Is that right?

He plans on staying in Thailand for around 40 days, and he is wondering what would happen if he overstayed his visa-on-arrival. Besides the fine when leaving the country, would he still be able to fly around from city to city, or would he get stopped? He is thinking of eating the fine, no sweat, and traveling as per usual.

What do you think? Thanks for the help!

I am from UK, on a visa exemption and extension until 6 Dec. I have to take a Covid-19 test 72 hours before I fly. If I test positive, I understand that I will be unable to fly or visit Immigration. Will I automatically become an overstayer? Should I apply for a 60 day Covid extension before 26 Nov in anticipation of a possible positive test result? What is the official position?

Hi, I am a British citizen. I travel to Thailand on the 4th October on a 60 day visa. The visa runs out on the December 2nd. My flight home to the Uk is not until the 7th December. Should I exceed my visa once I am in Thailand just before I go home? Or will I be okay?

I booked my flights before researching about visas🙄
