@John *********

so you are capable of providing useful info without being a total knob👏

Thank you though, but seriously there’s no need to be passive aggressive and make assumptions if your genuinely intent is to provide information and help

@John *********

and then I cancel my visa right before I leave

@John *********

okay so I pay the 1900 and get the 15 day stamp

@John *********

okay so let me explain again, any time before the 30th of September I need to go to immigration, pay 1900 baht, and then I’m granted a further 90 days, but split into two visits, the first visit where I make the payment and hand over documents, and the second where I get the longer stamp. All I wanna do is pay the money and get my 15 days stamp like I usually would, the only caveat is I want to fly out of Thailand during that 15 day window, I’m paying the money, I don’t see how I’m trying to play the system, you don’t even know the rules, they will probably just let me fly back to the UK with no hassle and void the rest of my ED visa which I don’t care about anyway coz I won’t be coming back to Thailand for a long time…

@John *********

Christ you’re an arse aren’t you, I’m literally just trying to go home I’m not looking for any loopholes or trying to play the system, what’s your deal man?

@John *********

coz my brother is coming out here for a month and flies back on the 8th October, it’s not like super super urgent like she’s not gonna die, but I thought I’d just book the same flight as him, then I realised the 8th falls in my 15 day extension period…

@John *********

I’m really not trying to play any systems mate, I’m just trying to get home to my mum who’s had an accident🤔

@Brandon ***********

I don’t care about the extension, I just wanna pay the 1900 which gives me 15 days from September 30th, and I wanna get on my flight on the 8th of October, is this possible?

@Brandon ***********

I’ll be leaving Thailand for a while, probably won’t be back till Feb or March by which point my education visa would’ve expired anyway.

So in this case I just need to confirm with an immigration officer whether it’s okay for me to leave the kingdom during my “under consideration” period.

Think is my flight is already booked for the 8th of October, what if they say I can’t leave the country?

@Brandon ***********

when you do your 90 day extensions for the education visa they give you a temporary 15 day extension for them to process the paperwork and then they stamp the remaining 75 thereafter, I can send you pics of my stamps from last time if you want?
