TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about the possibility of extending their visa exemption after it expires. A commentator confirmed that an extension for tourism can be applied for even if the visa has expired the day prior, although there may be a stamp indicating an overstay. However, the fine for the overstay is waived due to office closures. It is advisable to apply for the extension before the weekend to prevent the overstay stamp.

Yes, you can apply for a tourism extension with no problem, but you will get a stamp mentioning overstay but the fine is waived due to the office closure.

Tourism extension will be added to your current stamp, no downside going to apply earlier. Go before the weekend to avoid overstay stamp if possible.
