When does the 30-day extension for my tourist visa start if I apply before my current visa expires?
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?
Answer summary
The 30-day extension applied for at the immigration office in Samui will start from your current visa expiration date, which is January 30th, and not from the day you apply for the extension.

Doesn't make any difference when you apply for a 30 day extension it's added to the expiration date you have now
Going early doesn't cut any time off the extension 🙂
Unless I'm mistaken though Samui is one of those offices that want you to show up when you have a week or so left on your current 60 day stamp
Hopefully someone from down there will weigh in
