Hello, I arrived on October 25 in Phuket without a visa and just did my 30 days extension in Patong yesterday. Do you think it's possible to go directly to Phuket town tomorrow to ask for a covid extension? Or will I be refused because it's too early?

If someone has already had to deal with the office in Phuket

Thanks :)
Answer summary
The user is inquiring whether it is possible to apply for a COVID extension in Phuket town shortly after obtaining a 30-day extension, or if it is too early to do so. Commenters advise that while one can inquire about the extension, applying too early could be disadvantageous, as the new extension period would begin from the application date, potentially wasting the remaining time on the current visa.

Why would you do it now? The last day to apply is in a couple of weeks and if you apply now you will lose all the time you have left on your current stamp since the Covid extension will start from the day you apply.
