The Non-Immigrant B business/work visa — what should you know about the consequences of overstay?

The issue to settle here is “The Non-Immigrant B business/work visa”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. Before starting, check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page, then confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation, then count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps. With a fixed filing date, count backwards from it and book each certification step in reverse. Plan the schedule with room for at least one review cycle at the receiving office. The terms that frame this page are Non-Immigrant · business/work · visa · know. What changes the timeline most here is whether the source documents are complete on day one. The common failure in this group of cases is a translation that does not match the certification type required. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Keep a copy of every source document plus the receipt or docket from each step. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. Overstaying is an offence under the Immigration Act, carrying a fine and, depending on the length of the overstay and whether the person surrendered or was arrested, a re-entry ban; the applicable figures come from the law and official announcements and must be checked case by case. Entry, stay and status of foreign nationals in Thailand are governed by the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979) and its ministerial regulations: visas are issued by Thai embassies, consulates and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs e-Visa system, while permission to stay and extensions are decided by the Immigration Bureau of the Royal Thai Police. ILC's scope is documentation — certified translation, notarial signature certification and running legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs or an embassy. We are not an immigration authority and cannot guarantee any visa decision, which rests solely with the competent officer. Fees and scheduling depend on the number of documents, the source language, which authority must certify them and the destination country; we confirm scope in writing before starting.
