I'm always fascinated by these 5, 10, 15 year overstayers... How do they do it in for so long without having to prove status to someone (outside of immigration) for one reason or another... Unless they live like hermits. I mean, I go to Roi Et for 3 days and some policeman wants to see my passport

Deporting Country must pay.

Really?

But in case it is not a wanted criminal in other countries, but  just an overstayer, they put them in custody pending deportation. Till they (can) show an airplane ticket an pay all the fine plus the daily rising "accommodation" costs?

Interesting!
