During regular times, when you have a Non-O and you need to extend, is there a "grace period" for being late? For instance, you can be 3 days late, or you cannot be at all late.

TLDR : Answer Summary

There is no grace period for late extensions on a Non-O visa. You can apply for an extension no more than 30 days before your current stamp expires, and if you apply after the expiration, you will be considered as overstaying your visa.

there is NO such thing as a grace period. At most offices you can apply for an extension from up to 30 days before your current stamp expires.

IF you apply AFTER your current stamp expires you're on overstay and pay 500 baht a day

I don't think there are any circumstances where you can be late. You have 45 days before the current extension or visa expires to start the process. If you're past the validity date of the visa or past the date of your extension you are in the country illegally.

Can I extend a 90-day Non-O visa for 30 days and repeat the process after leaving Thailand?
