Goodmorning, I've got a multiple entry visa that will expire on 4th of july. Last time I came back from a trip (11 June) they stamped my passport for the 8th of August. If I want to extend my visa do do it before the 4th of july or the 8th of August? Thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user has a multiple entry visa expiring on July 4th and an entry stamp valid until August 8th. They inquire whether to extend the visa before July 4th or August 8th. Responses emphasize that the visa expiration is independent of the entry stamp, allowing for an extension to be applied before the entry stamp expires.

do a border bounce before 04 JUL then go to your local immigration office and buy the 30 day extension for 1,900 THB to get 9 months out of the 6 month METV

Your visa expiration has nothing to do with your entry stamp. You can apply for an extension before your entry stamp expires.
