You are likely asking about immigration, not emigration. And the office will be open when you arrive. Just like landing in any airport…

There are actually 2 offices on the beach on Koh Lipe. The one nearest your boat will be open to receive passengers coming in from Malaysia and will stamp you in

He is actually asking about the land border immigration on Koh Lipe entering from Langkawi. It will be open when his boat arrives .

Sorry my mistake. The 10th is a Saturday so the 12th is the replacement holiday.

if you're extending a tourist visa or visa exempt entry then just go tomorrow. The days are added onto your date admitted to stamp and not deducted by going early.
