Got a 30 day VOA stamp at Nong Khai ending this April, 8th. Flight back is 6th of May 2020. Do you recommend me to get a 30 days extra as soon as possible here in Bangkok? Can they add this 30 extra days counting from 8 April up, or do I have to wait till the last days of my VAO? This because of the whole situation. Thx in advance.

Nope, you got a 30 day visa exempt stamp, big difference.

>Do you recommend me to get a 30 days extra as soon as possible here in Bangkok?

Yes, do it as soon as possible; it will add another 30 days to your current stamp, giving you a total of 60 days.

> or do I have to wait till the last days of my VAO?

Nope, you don't need to wait.

It will cost 1,900THB
