Hi, I have some questions on how to do an extension for my visa exemption stamp received on 16th June and expiring on Saturday 15th July. Being my first one, I'm unsure about some details apart from the location being Laksi and I'd be grateful for any help.
As far as I understand the visa extension is given from the date you apply for it rather than when the original date expires? Can anyone confirm this is true? If so, how many days before do you recommend going? I was thinking two days so I wouldn't lose too many days?
I do have a TM30 from the place I'm currently renting, even though they have not filled in my whole name (I guess I'll have to ask them to redo it, if the immigration app allows that?). Does Immigration want to see a contract too?
Sorry for the many questions, I'm also looking at getting an "Education Visa" to actually learn Thai properly, so hopefully this might be the only visa extension I'll do (I only did STV previously).
Thanks! ๐
TLDR : Answer Summary
This user seeks guidance on extending their visa exemption stamp, which expires on July 15. They want to confirm that the extension is granted from the application date and inquire about the recommended application timeline. Additionally, they ask about the necessity of having a proper TM30 form and whether a rental contract is needed. A comment clarifies that the extension is added to the existing visa, allowing the user to apply now without losing any days.
