Can I renew my visa in a different province if my local immigration office is closed due to evacuation?
I live in a border area currently under evacuation notice so everything is closed. Can I do my annual renewal anywhere or must it be done in the same province or the same office (closed)?
Any advice welcome

I know a number of people who have been to immigration in Aran this week. It was closed on Monday but then reopenedJohn **********

no, they were both doing 90 day reports rather than extensions. By certified balance I assume you mean the letter from the bank to immigration? I'm pretty sure this can be up to 7 days old and just the bank book needs updating on the day. If your bank isn't open I guess you might need to head to Watthana Nhakon or somewhere nearby to get the letterMike *********
OP@John *********
do you know which bank they were with? The certified balance must be issued same day as the application.Mike *********

wow, ok thanks for that.Mike *********

the whole town has been evacuated. No bank open so no certified balance. 7-11’s shut. Amphur shut. Border closed. Just army.John **********

and the province?Wannikea *********
With this border war going on these are extraordinary circumstances, hopefully local immigration has a plan B.
TM7 check, bank statement check, kevlar vest and helmet check.
