ORIGINAL POSTERHey guys! My friend needs an extension of stay at the 15. April. We realized now that the immigration office is closed already today until 16th.. Do you know if it is ok to go on the 17th?
He had a bike accident and just came back from the Hospital in Samui to Phangan the day before yesterday. He was in intensive care and is still wounded, so he didn't actually think about immigration office holidays. Thanks for your advice 🙏

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about their friend's visa extension in Thailand, noting that the immigration office is closed until April 16th and asking if it is acceptable to visit on the 17th. Comments suggest that going on the 17th is fine, as extensions can be processed within the last 30 days of the current visa validity.

@Sab****
you probably shouldn't have waited until the last second to go get the extension. :O You can get an extension when you have 30 days or less left on your current stamp and don't lose any days because they ADD the extension to your expiration date..
Go on Wednesday when they re-open and avoid police if you can ;)
