Hi. Just wanted to ask about the initial 30 day extension for a 30 day visa exemption. Are there any rules around when you can apply eg if you have to have 7 days or less remaining? We are in Phuket and have initial visa until 15 April but we have use of a car tomorrow so thought we could go tomorrow. But want a 30 day extension from 15 April, not from tomorrow so just wanted to check the rules. Thanks and I hope everyone is staying safe

TLDR : Answer Summary

You can apply for a 30-day extension on your visa exemption anytime, and it will be added to your current expiration date. There are no specific rules requiring you to have a certain number of days remaining on your visa before applying.

They ADD the 30 day extension to your current expiration date on your visa exempt entry

You can apply anytime, there are no new rules about it.
