Thailand Immigration Fees: THB 1,900 Extension, THB 1,000 Re-Entry

An extension of stay costs THB 1,900. A re-entry permit costs THB 1,000 for one trip or THB 3,800 for several. Fines are separate: a late 90-day report is settled for THB 2,000, and an overstay costs THB 500 a day up to THB 20,000. Fees on the Bureau schedule are not refunded.

If you are staying longer, budget THB 1,900 for an extension of stay and THB 1,000 for a single re-entry permit if you plan to leave and come back. Missing a deadline is the expensive part, so the fines come right after.

What each service costs

These fees sit on the Bureau fee schedule under Ministerial Regulation 27, and they are not refunded, whether or not the application is approved.

The visa on arrival is paid in cash in baht. The visa on arrival guide has the rest. A tourist visa on the same schedule costs THB 1,000; for other visas, read the visa types overview.

Re-entry: single or multiple?

An extension plus a single re-entry permit comes to THB 2,900 in all, and with a multiple permit THB 5,700. Three single permits cost THB 3,000, less than one multiple permit, while four cost THB 4,000, more than the multiple permit. LTR visa holders are exempt.

Leaving without a re-entry permit ends your permitted stay. The re-entry permit guide has the counter steps.

Fines for missed deadlines

An overstay costs THB 500 per day, up to THB 20,000 for an overstay of 40 days or longer. The other fines hit different people, so check who owes what.

Offence Fine Who pays
Overstay THB 500 a day, max THB 20,000 The foreigner, before leaving
Overstay taken to court Up to 2 years in prison or up to THB 20,000, or both The foreigner

A few hours of overstay usually draw no fine. A one-week overstay costs 7 days x THB 500 = THB 3,500. The overstay guide covers the re-entry bans that follow a long one.

Paying and filing

File an extension in person at the immigration office covering the area where you live. Bring the passport original and one copy, form TM.7 and the signed overstay acknowledgement. The extension guide has the full steps.

The 90-day report goes to the same area office, online at the Bureau portal or by post with an envelope carrying a THB 10 stamp. You may file from 15 days before to 7 days after the due date; see the reporting guide.

The tourist entry fee

The proposed tourist entry fee is a flat THB 450 per person, and the draft still goes to the National Tourism Policy Committee and the Cabinet. See the tourist entry fee page.

Not confirmed: Cash or card: only the visa-on-arrival fee is stated as cash in baht. Ask your office about cards and about the airport re-entry fee. Confirm that an on-time report is free: the fee schedule has no line for it. Check the current figures at the counter, because this schedule is an archived copy.
