Essential Information on Overstaying in Thailand:
Here, overstaying refers to staying in Thailand even after the end of your visa’s duration. Remember, you must follow all compliance issues. If you overstay significantly, you may face penalties. Better to report to authorities and show your valid cause.
If you overstay your visa for a prolonged period, you are likely to be detained in an immigration detention center. You will have to stay there until your flight back to your country is arranged.
You must pay a fee, and the immigration officer will mark your Passport on the blocklist. Until arriving in your home country, your Passport will be preserved by the cabin crew.
If you repeatedly violate immigration laws or have other compliance issues, your stamp will be marked as “ Undesirable alien.”
However, members with the PE visa (privilege entry) will be granted a 1-year extension.
Here is the chart that shows the banned period for aliens (people who overstay are called aliens)
- If you overstay more than 90 days, you cannot reenter the country within 1 year.
- For more than 1 year, no chance to re-enter before 3 years
- For 3 years of overstaying, the banned period is 5 years
- If you overstay 5 years! Within 10 years, you cannot reenter the Kingdom of Thailand.
The immigration bureau of Thailand has established some regulations and advisable tips for foreigners who want to stay here for a long time.
Foreigners cannot stay in the Kingdom of Thailand after the expiry of their stay permit.
Foreigners who fail to leave Thailand on time (before the order’s date)- have to give a 500 bath fine. They cannot even reenter here for a respective period.
But if an alien gets arrested
For less than 1 year of overstaying, they will be banned for 5 years. More than 1 year of overstaying the banned period will be 10 years!
However, the rule does not apply to those who depart the country and those below 18.
