My non B visa expires August 13. My school prepared the required documents and wants me to go to changwattana BKK this week. However, someone in another group posted that immigration is only allowing people in within 3 days of the expiration due to covid. (No link to this info). Is this true?

TIA

However, are you getting a new visa, OR are you getting an extension of stay?
