you shouldn't have a problem because remember the "under consideration stamp" is really the beginning of your new extension :O Good luck with it

I did not show it but I told them

They just said that I need to book and it's okay

To be fully honest I did not insist to much as I have an appointment for Monday morning and I was expecting the outcome

They said to me that it's okay to book until 31st of Oct

But I would be careful as they tell something one week and something different the other

I am in the same situation I need to close the loop today and I could not book an appointment

I am here now, let's see what they say

As there are many many people I don't expect a positive outcome

@Piengnapa ****************
so basically they allow you to go another day even if the day you are suppose to go is today ? thanks
Piengnapa *****************

@Kun *******
yes, correct. You'd better book the appointment a few days in advance. I think the counter k option disappears when the appointment is full.

OP
all you can do is go there and see what they tell you

Hi
@Tod ********
quick question. 1. I was granted the extension w Embassy letter however I decided to fly to Germany on Oct 30th so I don’t need to close the gap? Also I tried to make an appointment using the above link but K is not an option for me

Just got extension till Nov 30.

I saw in other post that some applied and got 60 days extension till dec31. If I already got extension till Nov 30, I can't do 60 days extension? Todd
@Tod ********
Tod *********
Tod *********
OP
@あさくら ****
you would have to go back and apply for it BUT in Bangkok they are saying you need another embassy letter.

I'd say because you're good until the end of Nov wait a bit and see if they don't start issuing the 60 days without the embassy letter like the other offices have started. There is no need to run right back now..
Tod *********
Tod *********
OP
IF you entered on a 60 day tourist visa back before the lock down you want section J
