ORIGINAL POSTER
Hi everyone !

I arrived on a tourist visa that I extended COVID twice already.

The last 2 months extension ends May 14 but I'd like to fly to Bali only on the 20th.

What's the best way to extend for a few days?

Thank you in advance :)

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on how to extend their tourist visa for a few extra days in Thailand before traveling to Bali. They mention their current visa extension ends on May 14 but want to stay until May 20. Commenters suggest visiting the Immigration Office to apply for a new Extension of Stay, bringing flight tickets as proof. They recommend not applying too early, as a rejected extension will give a 7-day grace period from the application date.

Note that a rejected covid extension will give you 7 days, dated from the day of application, not added to your existing stamp. Don't apply too early...

Visit the Immigration Office, apply for a new Extension of Stay, worst case scenario is your application is not approved and you get 7 days to leave the country,

bring and show your flight tickets dated 20th May 2022.

And these 7 days are enough in your situation.
