TLDR : Answer Summary
On May 12th, Thai immigration offices are generally considered closed due to government holidays. Specifically, the 10th and the 12th are noted as holidays across immigration offices in Thailand. However, there are conflicting reports, with some offices, like the Chiang Rai immigration, stating they will remain open.
