Apichart Bowornbancharak | 2020 | 723 years | Thailand | Originally sentenced to 1,446 years for defrauding the public. They were arrested after numerous complaints. The Laemgate seafood restaurant had last year begun selling various food vouchers that required customers to pay in advance. One such deal offered a seafood meal at 880 baht (£22; $28) for 10 people – far cheaper than their usual prices. Initially, those who bought the vouchers were able to claim their meals at the restaurant but a long waiting list meant an advance booking of up to several months. But by March, the company announced its closure, claiming that it could not get hold of enough seafood to meet the demand. It offered to refund customers who had bought vouchers. About 375 out of 818 customers who complained got their money back. Bowornbancharak and Bowornbancha were arrested, later convicted, and sentenced to 1,446 years, although their sentences were cut in half due to the guilty plea. It was 723 counts of fraud. They would serve no more than 20 years. Their company, Laemgate Infinite, was also fined 1.8m baht, and the co-owners and the company was ordered to refund 2.5m baht in damages to the victims. They will be released in 2040.[124] |

Gabriel March Granados | 1972 | 384,912 years | Spain | March, a 22-year-old mailman in Palma de Mallorca, has occasionally been mentioned (sometimes erroneously as "Granados" or "Grandos") as the person sentenced to the longest prison term ever. He failed to deliver 42,784 letters, opening 35,718 of them and stealing their contents for value of 50,000 euro (2010 value). In consequence, March was charged with thousands of counts of fraud, wrongful appropriation of documents (one per undelivered letter) and theft, resulting in an unprecedented request of 384,912 years in prison and a 19-million-euro (2010 value) fine by the prosecutor. The actual sentence imposed was 14 years and 2 months in prison and a fine of 9,000 pesetas.[143][144] |
Two unnamed men | 1969 | 7,109 years | Iran | "Two confidence tricksters" said to have received one year in prison per criminal count, resulting in the "longest recorded prison sentences" according to the 1975 editions of The People's Almanac and Guinness Book of World Records.[145][146] |

Anders Behring Breivik | 2012 | 1,617 years | Norway | Breivik, a convicted domestic terrorist who committed the 2011 Norway attacks. He was found guilty of mass murder of 77 people.

Although several European countries still authorize life sentences without the possibility of parole, many do not.[147] |
