ORIGINAL POSTER

Friend of mine got the letter from Dutch Embassy as a PDF saying the following:

--------------------------

REQUEST FOR FACILITATTON OF VISA EXTENSION DUE TO COVID.lg OUTBREAK

 ....but because of an epidemics of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) causing him with non-ability to return to the Netherlands under his schedule. He is therefore seeking for an extension of a permit of stay in the Kingdom of Thailand......

--------------------------

They send this as a PDF. Is this enough to visit immigration at Koh Samui or do they not accept copies?

Thank you :)
