#CovidVISA
Today, I applied for and received my first 60day COVID extension at Chang Watthana Bangkok.
The extension started from today's date which means I lost the remaining 8 days on my initial tourist extension.
Just wanted to put this out there for those who ask about the loss/gain in number of stay days.
Another item regarding the TM30 from my hotel, which they declined at first because it wasn't registered online. However, after I phoned my hotel and they completed the registration, I was able to go back and get the extension.
