ORIGINAL POSTER
We live at Koh Lanta and should go to Krabi tomorrow to extend our Non O retirement visa. Is it true that you are not allowed to leave Lanta and/or you are not allowed to return to Lanta? Anybody with a reliable update?๐Ÿ™

People on lanta say that immigration is coming there soon to solve this problem. I also hope we may get an announcement tomorrow regarding issues like this. Good luck.
