Hi all, needing some advice re. covid extensions and re-entry.
I have a current covid extension up to May 27th, but I need to return to the UK soon. I would ideally like to come back to Thailand after 1-2 month back in the UK. I entered visa exempt in Dec, and have had 1x1month extension and 2x2month covid extensions. It looks like I can get a cheap flight on May 31st, but obviously this would push me over my current extension.
Am I correct that my options are (a) get another 2 month covid extension or (b), if for whatever reason I can't get another covid extension, get the 7 day get out of Thailand extension? Specifically, is the 7 day extension always guaranteed as a last resort to avoid having to overstay and pay the fine? Ideally I want to avoid this and increase my chances of being allowed back in July. Thanks!
