ORIGINAL POSTER
With the very strict requirement on covid visa after 25th Jan, 2022, all non immigration visa and VOA cannot extend 60 days covid visa.

Anybody with STV Entry to Thailand and successfully got covid visa extension after 25th Jan 2022?

I am holding Stv visa enter Thailand, and got covid visa extension twice before 25th Jan, and it will be expired on 21 March. Today I go to pattaya immigration to submit the application for covid visa extension. But the guy at the front counter check my document , then ask me to come back 18 March .(2 days before my visa expired !!) anybody has similar experience, especially at pattaya immigration?

Yes it's normal in jomtien, he spoke to me the same, but you can go from 7 days before , they will apply . If you pay agency they apply anytime, because they are happy to share a lot of more money

They don't like you going too soon at Jomtien, it's happened to me before to go back nearer the expiry date.
