Will I have a problem if my departure on the e-arrival doesn't match the departure of my flight ticket?

@Arpan *****

But I don't have a letter. No instruction like this was given to me by my employer. They asked my date of departure. I told them. They said they would cancel accordingly.

@John *********

But I don't have the work permit anymore. I already left the job and had to give back my work permit upon leaving.

@Tod ********

So you're saying my extension stays valid until I cancel it or leave the country? My permit cancels in April. But my extension in my passport say I'm good till July. So technically, I could've stayed in Thailand till July with no problem? And no overstay fine either?

@Tod ********

It is an extension of stay. And you're right, the employer cannot cancel the visa. They can only cancel the work permit. But I was told when the permit is cancelled, then the visa is automatically cancelled.

So I checked my airline on this. I'm booked with AirAsia. And apparently I did a non refundable. So I cannot cancel as I would not receive any refund. And there wasn't even options to receive credit either. It looks like I can change the ticket, but with change fee added on it's gonna be like 2200 extra. I was looking at bus tickets for the return to Thailand and can probably get a bus ticket for around 700. So I'm wondering in this case, maybe it's better just to miss the return flight (as in, just not show up) and book the bus ticket when I need it? Is there any problem with this scenario with regards to the DTV? Cuz I think I read something about we need to enter our return details in the application. If I put my returning flight in the application but actually return by land, is that still ok?

After reading some of the comments here, I'm wondering if I can just cancel my return flight back to Thailand and receive a refund and then use that money to book a bus ticket when I'm there as I'm sure bus reservations are more flexible and can also book last minute?

@Wannikea ********

Right. I did look it up and they're closed April 14, 15, 16. So maybe processing time will be an extra 3 days on top of the already 11 working days?

@Wannikea ********

I'm not even going till later in April. Arrival Cambodia April 27. But it's Cambodia. Thai New Year is in Thailand. Will embassies in Cambodia still be closed the whole week? If they are, I expect probably a huge backlog of applications.

How long did it take you to get the DTV?
