I would rather be safe at a cost of 1900 Baht than sorry as I was not built for prison 🤣 Take the risk get one immigration officer in a bad mood because he had to deal with another farang and it's game over. Do the right thing even if it costs a little more.

A 7-day visa extension in Thailand costs 1,900 Thai baht (THB). This extension is usually granted for medical reasons or to those who entered Thailand with a 30-day visa waiver or Visa on Arrival.

The extension is added to the existing stamp in the passport, rather than issued as a new visa. The process is usually quick if all the correct documentation is provided.

Here are some other visa extension fees in Thailand:

Education visa: 1,900 THB for each extension

Tourist visa: 1,900 THB for a 60-day visa extension, or a 30-day extension

Overstaying a visa in Thailand can result in fines, deportation, or imprisonment. The fine is 500 THB per day, up to a maximum of 20,000 THB. Overstayers may also face future travel restrictions or difficulties obtaining visas.

they are getting very sticky at the borders since the exemption visa came to effect. I would sooner do the 7 day extension and not have an issue next time you try to enter than to pay the fine get a stamp and be refused entry next time because of such a small oversight.

@Ralph ******

you get a 30 day extension and then 7 days for cases like the above where you are out on travel arrangements. For the life of me I can't remember the cost of 7 days. Not sure what part of Thailand you are in. They do it at the Blue Port immigration office.

You can do a 7 day extension. Make sure to keep the blue receipt from your extension also. We did an extension and got to customs only to be told my partner overstayed by a month according to their records and wanted to charge him. Apparently the systems are not linked.

Take your Netflix off the VPN. The Netflix app has a setting that allows you to indicate you are traveling and you sorted. I never have a problem no matter what country I'm in it works and I share my password with kids in S.A

apologies for the late reply I was between travels. The store in Market Village is amazing and most of their staff speaks decent English. They showed me a list of options just ask for the flip file list lol 😆 I know some staff will try and nail you for the highest package. They are on the 3rd floor to the left of the lift as you come up from the front entrance of Market Village. Disclaimer "I don't work for AIS" because I feel as if I'm promoting them 🤣🤣🤣

Get a SIM from AIS and purchase a roaming package when you need to travel. I went straight to AIS and this option works brilliantly they have different pre-paid roaming options that are really well priced.
