Hi!

My 30 day visa exempt has an until date of Dec 11. When should I file for the visa extension? If I go early, say Nov 30, is my new date based on the day I’m having it done, plus 30 days? Or Should I wait until Dec 11 to go to the immigration office? Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary
You can file for your visa extension any time before your 30-day visa exempt ends. If you apply early, such as on Nov 30, the new extension will be added to your current stay until date, giving you an additional 30 days starting from the date of the extension approval.

It is added to your stay until date. You do not lose days by going early.
