For me when in country my guv agent was most helpful… in end it will depend upon how your visa office impliments the rules… a little kindness goes a long way easy peasy Your local visa office is your best friend in this matter be patient.. my 1st go cost me 30kTB to use agent bc all say cannot change from tourist to resident.. in end my very kind officer come up and say, next time come see me first… i never forgot their kindness
Very nice to hear pos experience…. This was same for me
I came on tourist visa & yes extended without going ooK… was 18months b4 1st trip out. I found both BKK & Chaing Rai visa offices always very helpful. Just get your $$ squared away & no issues.
Thai fear mongering so bad that even family gatherings mask up… only hospitals mask up in East TN for over a year… masking is a fear derangement syndrome previously suffered only by hypochronics
Whilst cv19 can infrequently kill … a look at overall population death stats shows no uptick during cv19 years… a 2yrs Cv19 survivor… was like just a really bad flu..
