craige1 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I am an indian with a tourist Visa. Now on the departure card given in airplane and my original return ticket date, my stay is upto 33 days. Now in my passport, immigration stamped under "Admitted until- 8 jan 2020" So can I cancel my return ticket and also legally stay in Thailand upto above date. The initial 33 days I mentioned wont be a problem ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistakes happen but the onus is on you to ensure you leave on time even if you're one of the 10,000 baht a day big-spending Indians that Thailand is now reliant on.

If in doubt, stroll into your nearest Immigration Office and ask them (since they are the experts). If they made a mistake at the airport, it is you that will be on overstay (regardless of the date in your passport). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) What was your entry date into Thailand? As said if an error was made it would be you that needs to correct it. Were you expecting to be stamped in for 33 days because of your ticket out/entry card by chance? Does not work that way.

When you did you enter the country? I assume it was November 10th since January 8th is the 60 days your visa allowed. No problem to change you ticket to the 8th of January if I am correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 You are not obliged to leave Thailand on the date you wrote on the TM6 Card. The obligation to leave is as per the date stamped into your passport, and likely on the back of the Tm6 Card. With a Tourist Visa that is 60 days from entry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paahlman Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Unless he means he got a visa exemption stamp which is often mistaken for a visa. The exemption is 30 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He entered using a tourist visa and got the 60 days it allows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
