IMMIGRATION OFFICE CLOSURE FOR SONGKRAN

Remember people all immigration offices in the country close at 4:30PM today (Friday the 11th) and will not re-open until 8:30AM Thursday the 17th

If you have a stamp that expires on a day the immigration office is closed (weekends or holidays) and you go the very next day the immigration office is open you can get your extension like normal (you will get an overstay stamp in your passport but will not be fined)

I would hazard a guess and say that ALL offices in the country will be mobbed with people next Thursday when they re-open and if you don't have to go, DON'T..

Borders are open like usual, they don't close for holidays

Have a Safe & Happy Songkran everyone !!

Hi, my son’s 30 day stamp expires 12th of august - it’s a public holiday. He needs to get 30 days more extension because he’s flying back to US 24th august. I wonder if they’ll give him 30 days more on 13th if his previous stamp expired already or does he have time fly out ?

Hi everyone! I’ve got a quick question about the 30 day extension of my visa exemption. From what I’ve read on previous posts, I need to go to IT Square Laksi for this. How early in advance of the expiration is one allowed to request the extension? And if I do go a week or two in advance, does the extension period start the day I get the extension or the day the original visa exemption expires? I’ll be on Koh Tao the week before I need my extension and then there will be the public holidays around new year, so I’m hoping to avoid going last minute on the 3rd of January (my visa ends on the 4th). Thank you in advance for your help!

ATTENTION MEMBERS - UPDATE

IMMIGRATION OFFICE CLOSURES July and August 2023

Immigration offices nationwide will be closed on:

**Friday 28 July: H.M. King Maha Vajiralongkorn’s Birthday

Monday 31 July: Special Holiday <- added**

**Tuesday 1 August: Asalha Bucha

Wednesday 2 August: Khao Phansa Buddhist Lent Day**

Monday 14 August: Substitution for The Queen Mother Sirikit's Birthday & Mother's Day

Plan accordingly.

* Land borders are open like normal during holidays.

* Check before you go if there were other reasons for that border checkpoint to be closed

If you have a stamp that is expiring during holidays when the immigration offices are closed and you show up at the immigration office on the very next working day you will NOT be fined for overstay and can get your extension like normal. But you will get an overstay stamp in your passport that says; "overstay xxx days, fine waived due to holiday/closure".
