Some get jealous and bad attitude. Her life sucks and to make it better she makes yours hard. Dodge the females if possible.

Of course if you do something stupid and get arrested you will be banned. That's a no brainer.

I know what you are saying and that's the exact reason I went to immigration to get an extension. Once there they all but refused to give me an extension for 2 days overstay and even gave me paperwork to keep as I just wanted an extension that is official print out that lists what effect each length of over stay has in future entry. I have that paperwork somewhere as I kept it in case I was refused re entry this year which I wasn't. The bloke at immigration was extremely clear and spoke very good english and was adamant it would in no way affect me getting a visa to live in Thailand. I always do things by the book so made sure and asked him many times if was o.k.

If you are over staying only 2 days just pay the fine on leaving. I went to the Chiang Mia immigration office to extend for the exact same reason. The nice helper said to me why pay 1900 thb ? for an extension when I could pay 1000 thb for 2 days overstay. He even gave me paper work saying what happens for how many days you overstay and basically up to 90 days you don't get banned then 90 - 120 I think was a years ban and it goes up from there.

Wouldn't it show up electronically that it is approved anyway ? When they look at your passport their system should show you are pre approved 🙂

This may be an easy option. Fly in get 60 days on arrival then extend 30 days = 90 days. Fly to a neighboring country at 90 days then fly back to Thailand and repeat. 6 months this way ?

Missed out by that much. Dam

@Peter ********

thankyou. I'm heading back in 5 weeks so probably just get it here then having to bother once I arrive if doesn't happen on arrival.

Thanks again.

Will Australian citizens get 60 days when/if it happens ?

You left one option out. Booting the member that is harrasing you of the group also.

@Tod ********

in life you run into people that have issues. It pays to ignore them. If it's any consultation they are usually people who have a very low opinion of themselves. Please stay and know you are supported.
