Hey there!
I have some questions, maybe you can help me.
Ive applied for an 5-Year Elite-Visa and it got approved today. I’m happy, but there is something I’m not sure about.
In the approval Mail I got is written: Theelite-visa stamp can be denied if I have more then one overstay in the past 3 years.
Now I looked through my passportand saw one overstay in may 2016: “Overstay 3 days on public holidays” with no fine. Besides of this I had only one “real” overstay, it was in 2015 and it was only one day and I paid 500 Baht.
The public holiday overstay stamp isn’t red and there was no fee, somebody know if this stamp count?
I think the safe line would be to wait for 2019, then for sure it’s only the public holiday overstay in the last 3 years. I can’t look at what date the one day Overstay was, because I have a new passport.
Maybe somebody from you have some experience with the elite visa. For sure I asked the same questions to the elite-visa staff, but I like to have some real experience-reports.
I will keep you updated.
Thanks

The one for overstaying due to a holiday would not count as one. It is just a note to justify no fine being paid.
Even the one for one day would not be taken into consideration. The are more concerned with a history of longer overstays.
