If you exceed the 60-day visa-free stay period or the visa validity period (overstay), you will be fined 500 baht for each day of overstay upon departure, but not more than 20,000 baht. If you overstay by one day, no fine is charged.

According to new rules, if you overstay your visa or visa-free period by 15 days, you will be held accountable for border violation and illegal residence. This can lead to imprisonment followed by deportation. For repeated violations, you may be placed on a "blacklist" with no possibility of visiting Thailand in the future.

The fine is paid when passing through passport control upon departure. When an overstay is detected, you will be directed to a special fine payment counter, where the procedure takes no more than 5 minutes. The fine can also be paid in advance at Immigration Offices, which are available in many popular tourist resorts in Thailand.

Children under 7 years old do not pay fines for overstay. However, this does not exempt parents from responsibility for complying with visa regulations for minors.
