Can I submit my COVID extension application for a Non-B visa on August 11th before it expires on August 19th?
Hi, I will be applying for a covid extension from my non-b visa. My visa is set to expire on the 19th of August, is there any problem if I submit everything on the 11th of August or do I necessarily have to wait until 3 days before it expires? Thanks in advance!

This is the stamp that is letting you stay here right now. It is the cancellation of your previous extension stamp AND you can stay until the 19th. So you need to apply for a covid extension on the 16th or later in Bangkok.

perfect, thanks a lot!Ellie *******
Are you on extension or first 90days from Non-B visa?

Then you need to apply for cancellation of your current extension even it's gonna be expired. You also need to cancel your WP.
For those, you can go earlier than 16th Aug to apply for cancellation first then apply for Covid extension immediately.
The Covid extension would start on the day of application since you have to cancel current one anyway.

The "original" 1 year extension stamp was set to expire on the 19th. They canceled my visa yesterday (that "original" stamp) and they added a second stamp that says my visa expires on the 19th.Maria ********

thank you so much! Ellie *******

Then you may apply for a covid extension on the 16th. If you can get the receipt of your WP cancellation, bring it with you in case. Be aware new Covid extension would be starting on the day of applying.

Can you show us a picture of these "visas" and "extension of stays"Ellie *******
So your stamp 19th Aug is the new stamp after canceling your 1 year extension clearly? or still 1 year extension stamp you have?

They will cancel my work permit that day as it will be my last working day.I can apply for covid extension on the 16th and then cancel my work permit or do I need to present my canceled work permit as well?
