ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi

I am from HK with Thai nationality. My husband has applied dependent visa to stay in Thailand with me. Today is the deadline of his visa and he is informed to go to immigration office today to get the new visa. When we arrived the immigration, today is holiday. Is that ok we go tomorrow or we need to leave Thailand today?

Thank you for reply.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user, a Thai national from Hong Kong, is inquiring about their husband's dependent visa situation. They arrived at the immigration office on the visa's deadline only to find out that it was a holiday. The consensus in the comments suggests that they should not leave Thailand and should attend the immigration office the following day to handle the visa renewal process.

Do not leave Thailand or you will need to start over again. Just go to immigration tomorrow.
