ORIGINAL POSTER

Went today in the afternoon after 2pm, 18th May 2021 to transfer  from my old passport to my new one. 

There's only 1 person ahead of me. 

Got my transfer done in 30 mins and then have to Re queue to get a new number to apply for CoViD19 extension since my expiry is with 30 days. 

Paid 1900 bahts and waited for another 30mins.

2 sets of photocopies and the newly transferred stamps photocopies needed too.

Asked if CoViD19 extension will be extended,  she replied, just wait for announcement.

You would use Changwatanna to get an extension of stay based on tourism or an extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19
