I went to beach road pattaya across from the post office visa lady sent me few hundred meters up the road to the bank where another visa lady was waiting signed 30 diffent sheets of paper and got my bank account sorted and I was on a 6month visa no worrys
I failed to realise I must exit the country after 60 days then re enter , I don’t know if this counts as over stayed but I “overstayed” 14 days 🤣🤣
Did a boarder run payed 7000baht at the border then returned into Thailand 🇹🇭
Maybe I guess if you don’t have this 6month visa or a visa to show your intention of staying a long time you’d get slapped abit harder for over staying ?
