@Wendy ******
they announced the amnesty literally days before the end of april, telling people if there visa expired after the 26th of march the were on amnesty, after people had been queing at immigration all day for weeks to get extensions they didnt need.

Things in Thailand are done slowly or at the last minute.

Plus this is a very big decision on what to do next.

I suspect they will either announce something on the 15th july or around the 20th.

Dont pay attention to anything that is said until the government announces it.

Immigration officers know nothing about what is going to happen after the 31st as the government hasnt even decided yet.

@Tod ********
yeah, its not something i need to do.

But was just wondering what actually happens when you get into laos at a land border or airport.

I will have a search.

Do they take you to quarantine? Or do you just choose anywhere ro quarantine for 14 days?

I havent heard any reports of laos doing the same as thailand, where they take you straight to qaurantine from the airport.

If you do.not have a camera to record what happens while driving, you will always be blamed.

Your fault or not.

Believe me, had it happen to me twice.

You would probably need to use an agent.

There is no way around the situation at the moment as you cant leave to get a tourist visa etc...

yes, thats why my immigration office told me to extend it before the 90 days was up. I was going to wait until the end of july, but luckily enough i went to go check with them.

I have read that some offices have told people to go back to get the extension near the end of july.

Like i said before, up to the immigration office, they all do things differently.
