TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster is concerned about their Covid visa expiring on a public holiday and whether they can still get an extension the following day. Community comments suggest that the visa will be fine since it expires on a public holiday, and they will likely receive a grace period for the extension. Advice includes being prepared with paperwork and money for the immigration visit.

You’ll be fine if it expires on a public holiday.

I always go 7 days before expiration.

However you should get a grace period
Barry ******
its fine. go tommorrow. Have all your paperwork and money ready.

You won't have to pay for overstay

This is why never leave things to the last minute. Hope u get your extension tomorrow coz I thought the Thai government announced there won't be anymore Covid visa extensions after 26 Nov?

Thats good then.

You will be able to apply for an extension tomorrow and an overstay fine will be waved with mentioning it falls during the official holidays.

If they will give you an extension is between you and Immigration Officer you would deal with.
