What happens to my non-O visa if my travel dates are later than the issue date?

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, I have received my 90 day non O visa today via email but the start day is from today for 90 days. I wasn’t planning on going to mid April and put my intended travel dates as this on the application. Do they stamp this visa when I arrive and therefore get 90 days from them ? 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user's 90-day non-O visa activates from the issue date received via email. However, upon arriving in Thailand, the user will receive a stamp granting 90 days, provided they arrive before the visa's expiration.

The visa is valid for use for 90 days from issue. When you arrive in Thailand you’ll be stamped in for 90 days as long as you arrive before the visa expires.
