Thankfully I am still two weeks away from my visa expiration. I think I will give it a shot in Laksi anyway, if they send me back I still can go back to Jomtien office in time.
I was originally on a 30-day visa exemption, then 60-day covid extension done in Pattaya office. It is expiring in two weeks and I'm currently in bkk. I was told by fellow backpackers that if I had my first covid extension done in Pattaya, then I must apply the second extension in Pattaya.
Yes that's true. I think those 20 days I lost was because I applied for the extension too early. My original 30- day visa exemption expires on 16th April..
Yeah I'm shocked too, it's a pain to go all the way back to the same office.. just for that 30 days that they could have granted me today. Queued up for 4 hours..
