My 60 day tourist visa expires on Jan 30th. I want to stay til the end of February. If I apply for the 30 day extension today at the immigration office in Samui, do the 30 days start from today or from Jan 30th?
TLDR : Answer Summary
When a 30-day extension is applied for, it is added to the expiration date of the existing visa, not the date of application. Therefore, if you apply for the extension before your current 60-day tourist visa expires on January 30th, your 30-day extension will start from that expiration date, giving you an additional 30 days to stay.
