I was planning to fly out of Thailand this week before my STV expires. Just after I got my negative PCR test results for the flight I learned I was exposed to someone who is C19-positive... so I decided to delay the trip and isolate for a bit just to be safe. I couldn't live with the idea that I might get other people sick.
The problem is that I'm now in an overstay situation for a week or two. I know it's 500 baht/day but it seems unfair to be penalized for following government recommendations and trying to do the right thing. I'm also worried I may be black listed next time I tried to enter Thailand.
With the STV I don't qualify for the COVID extension and in any case it's expired now.
Any ideas how I might get this sorted?
