overstayers

Those who remain

Overstayers are people who remain somewhere beyond their permitted time, typically visitors who stay past the expiration of their visa or legal authorization.

The term appears frequently in immigration contexts: Overstayers face deportation and future entry bans.

Less formally, overstayers might be guests who linger too long at a party or event.
