I will need to renew my business visa this year. The date the visa expires is 8th June. I left the country recently so the stamp in my passport states I am entitled to stay in the kingdom until the 27th of July. Should I plan to go to Penang before the visa expires, (8th June) or before the 27th of July?
Also my work permit has just been renewed last month.
