Hi all!
Happy new year! Hoping to hear some of your experiences with visas.
I’m currently a little, tiny bit stuck in Africa lol. My student visa for Thailand is going to expire next week, so the way I see it, my options are:
1. Re-enter Thailand on a tourist visa and change to a student visa once I’ve finished quarantine. I’m already half way through my course though (masters program at Mahidol university). Do you think this will cause me issues?
2. Head to Cambodia and re-apply for my student visa from there. Getting more and more keen for my own bed though but wondering if this is the safest option.
As an aside, has anyone entered quarantine with their visa due to expire in the middle of it? Do they still let you in?
Thanks for any insight you have! 🌻🌻🌻
