ORIGINAL POSTER
Just a update for extension at Jomtien immigration office.

They first gave me an under consideration stamp dated for oct 7th, when I went they gave me yet another under consideration stamp dated for nov 3rd.

Because im trying to move to another province as soon as possible I went to jomtien soi 5 immigration today hoping they would give me the stamp early. They didnt give me the stamp but gave me a card with a number on it and told me to come back tomorrow meanwhile keeping my passport. I will update again tomorrow if they give me the stamp. Has anyone else been to jomtiem soi 5 immigration and had your passport kept overnight?

I wonder why they're rationing out the days like that?

I don't want to upset you, but our immigration puts final stamps only until October 31 and asks to come again.
