Yes, they're bloody horrible. I wish I could avoid them but as a French citizen living in Paris, I have no other choice but jumping through whatever hoops they come up with (which often vary from one year to the next. Never a dull moment, ha!).🤪
Last February, I extended my SETV 33 days before the end of the 60 days in Bangkok Immigration office. The 30 days were added to the end of those 60 days.
