Visa extension at old town immigration office dress code. Hi there, I'm intending on going to get a 30 day visa extension on Friday morning at the immigration office in the old town. Digging around Google, there's some talk of people being turned away for what they are wearing. I'm a big XXXL dude and I don't have anything with a collar with me. I was planning on wearing a smart plain grey t shirt, some 3/4 length smart trousers and my walking shoes. Does anyone have any experience with this immigration office, am I going to be turned away? And if yes... Does anybody perhaps know where I might find plus size men's shirts in the old town? Thank you in advance for any input. 🙏

Honestly, I have seen some female tourists get turned away for wearing skirts that show their cheeks and also some guys that look like they just woke up or came from a beach bar. Smart casual is the way.

Modest dress code. Something you would wear to a temple. Doesn't have to be a Polo shirt, T-shirt is acceptable. Shorts are also ok. The longer the better. No Daisy-duke's. I don't think they care too much about footwear as long as you're not barefoot. Avoid Singlets/Tank Tops especially if you are female. Try for something with sleaves or at least covers the shoulders. I see female visitors sometimes with a shaw or sarong and that is a fine covering also.

If your shoulder, knees, and toes are covered, you're good. >smart plain grey t shirt, some 3/4 length smart trousers and my walking shoes You'll be fine.

Did the airport immigration officer do me a big favor? Background: I lived in Thailand for a little over two years with COVID extensions and then an education visa. However, despite having an education visa that was supposed to last a year, and despite having a reentry permit and even being allowed to reenter Thailand last week, Phuket immigration denied my education visa renewal this Monday. I was concerned that meant I would definitely have an overstay on my record because my visa renewal request was denied on the same day the visa expired, and I didn’t have enough time to buy a ticket and leave Thailand. I’m leaving Thailand right now, and when I explained to the immigration officer at the airport my situation and that I just returned from Israel after my dad had a heart attack and stroke, he let me pay 2500 baht for a 7 visa extension, which let me leave Thailand without any overstay on my record. Did the airport immigration officer do me a big favor, or is this stand practice? I thought I would definitely have an overstay on my record, but I appreciate that he let me just pay for an extension and leave Thailand with a clean record.
