I have an overstay on my passport from last year - it should have been a day, but due to flooding and the immigration office being closed, it became 8 days. Has anyone had experience of getting a DTV specifically in London, with an overstay on their passport?

Just been informed my return home flight out of Thailand has been cancelled and I must reschedule.

I have been here for 60 days visa waiver and extended that another 30 days.

My departure was scheduled for the day before the last date on my 30 day extension's passport stamp.

Can I stay until midnight on the date of that stamp or must I depart BEFORE the date on the stamp, in order to avoid an "overstay" please?

Thanks, in anticipation.

UPDATE: 24th June 2025. It has been confirmed that departure must occur by midnight on the visa expiry date stamp so that date means "visa valid up to AND INCLUDING such-and-such a date".

I have an update, being that I attended at the Immigration Office but, despite the unavoidable circumstances (being beyond my control) their policy disallows them from extending my visa, even by a week.

What they CAN (and will) do, however, is allow me to apply for a visa/extension, on the last day of my current visa only (not before) and then DENY that visa/extension and stamp my passport with "VISA DENIED. PASSPORT HOLDER MUST LEAVE THAILAND WITHIN 7 DAYS" (to effectively afford me a further 7 days of execution).

Do I REALLY want a "Thai visa application denied" stamp in my passport?

Not if it can be helped, I feel.

Has anyone stayed over the 90 days without reporting, then flown out and back without issues?

Urgent Information Needed Regarding DTV Visa – Vientiane Thai Embassy

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask you a question:

1. Could I leave and re-enter Laos while waiting the interview?

I would like to go to Vietnam just for a day because I don't want to overstay in Laos.

Do you have any experience with that? I am not so sure that it is allowed or not.

Thank you so much for your time and sharing.

Hello all, I made a huge mistake of overstaying and immigration police made me get a flight out of the country and essentially banned me for 6 months. My question is since I’m moving on this day, how do I use this information (and passport stamp) to get my security deposit back on my apartment?

Thank you all for being so helpful as this is an advice group 💜

Hey Guys, if I have overstayed in Thailand for a day (reason: miscalculated the date), is it still possible to apply for DTV?

Just a little word to the wise about something that happened to me.

I am renting a house in Ban Chang for about 3 months now. I have a retirement visa.

So a couple days ago a couple immigration officers from Rayong IO knocked on my door and asked for my passport. OK.......no worries on my part. I know I am all good in all regards.

Long story short...........the were looking for the previous renter (a gentleman from England). They said he had overstayed his visa.

Take from this what you will. It showed me that Thai Immigration Rayong is on the job, and ya best keep things up to snuff.

Has anyone been successful getting a DTV visa with a previous overstay on there file/ application n passport?

My children have 30 day overstay because there is no fine or re-entry restrictions for under 15years old. But im wanting to apply for dependent DTV visa for them but not sure if the previous overstay will affect this. Australia Embassy

Hello, i am currently in Thailand and my passport is almost full (i still have some little space left on 2 or 3 pages, enough space for the small stamp of visa exempt entries but 0 blank pages left).

I plan to go to China and then go home from China. But my flight for China is on the same day as my last day allowed by my visa exemption in thailand, which means if i am not allowed to board in, i will have to take a flight the day after to go home, and therefore will get an overstay of 1 day.

I really want to avoid the overstay, i stay in thailand usually 6 months per year and i dont want to get more hassle in the future because of 1 day overstay.

Do you know if its possible in Bangkok to check in online and to through the immigration 1 day before the departure? And then to wait in the boarding area…?

Ps: 2 months ago i have been to China i already had 0 page left on my passport and it was ok at the immigration but the airline did not check… i dont need a visa for china and the stamp is very small, but now i really have not much space on my passport.

Thank you.

Hello I have a question regarding police clearance certificate.

I was dismissed from the school and when I ask about my visa status, they don’t give clear answer. I am planning to leave Thailand this week. And I need police clearance certificate for my another country visa.

I want to know if my visa is canceled and I have been overstay, is there any affect on my police clearance certificate. Do they recheck my visa status?
