Can someone please fill me in on the automatic extension.

I did an normal extension back on March 19 after a Visa Run to Cambodia in February.

Right now I have the letter from the Canadian embassy and due for the emergency Covid extension. On the 19th

Am I covered under the new automatic extension and good to go till the 30th. Or is that just for the first normal extension.
Answer summary

An answer with no solution. Excuses about national security. Why not make it clear plain and simple. All visa holders are permitted to stay in the kingdom until a grace period is announced to allow a safe timely exit.

Always ambiguity confusion and room for interpretation in the name of the excuse of national security.

exactly! Great for now...but just wait until immigration offices usual monthly traffic + backlog flocks in all at once on the 30th (or May 31th or whenever that day is..)

Ready?🤡🤹‍♂️🤸‍♀️🎪😆

Thanks Tara. The wording on the article for the auto extension was really confusing and I thought it was only for people doing their first extension. Good to know I don't have to jump through hoops at immigration till atleast the 30th.
