@Kun *******
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
Robin ********
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
Kun ********
@Robin *******
can please check with is all right to book another day for this ? even it is not the day we suppose to go. thanks

@Robin *******
did you show them you couldn't book?
Robin ********
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
Kun ********
actually my appointment supposed to be today and have been trying to make appointment since a week ago but can't and have been trying everyday but next week no problem booking one

If your under consideration stamp is up today
@Kun *******
JUST GO without an appointment
Kun ********
@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.

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

@Tod ********
my friend got the same situation. He went there and got asked to book an appointment on 28th and go back there again
Ryan *******
They asked to see my appointment email when i arrived but just lots of waiting after that but smooth process.
Cory ********
Yep no option for counter k anymore for booking
Micaella ******

If you entered on a 30 day visa exempt entry (meaning you didn't BUY a visa before you came here) you want section K
Piengnapa *****************
I checked for my friend and I could not find counter k neither
Cory ********
yes I have the same issue
Laura ********
I have the same issue!
Robin ********
It seems that this options is not valid anymore?

I can't see it on my computer (same image as Anthony below)

Anyone having the same issue?

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

@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..

IF you entered on a 60 day tourist visa back before the lock down you want section J
