I would have normally never chosen to live in Thailand, but I’ve been here since the beginning of the pandemic and it’s been great. The Sandbox would allow you to get here and still enjoy it for awhile without mass tourism, so l would definitely recommend that option.

and getting so upset over miscommunication in English with a Thai person in Thailand and having it work out in one’s favour.

Yeah, thanks. Will definitely have a plan B. Can I ask a follow-up question about this procedure?

I get a letter from my school sometime before Sep 16, then go to immigration sometime before or on Sep 16. I ask to cancel my ED and apply for this COVID extension (assuming they renew it past July 29). Then they either give me 60 days or give me 7 days, past a) Sept 16 or b) the date i go into immigration?

Does this all sound correct? Thanks again.

@Bobby *******

Thanks. But getting 60 days from July 29 isn’t a lot better than my current 16 Sept expiry date.

@Tod ********

Thanks for this.

Vaccination isn’t currently a requirement for entry to the kingdom

@Tod ********

yes, there was a special fee. Hopefully it will continue to be honoured. Thank you

On the same topic—

I arrived on Jan 27, 2020 (on visa exemption, extension, then amnesty) and then converted to ED late Sep. 2020. Initially received a late Dec. stamp and currently have a Mar. 20. stamp.

Given that they’ve already extended me beyond a year from initial arrival, does it seem that I’ve avoided the above issue and that they’re likely to continue to give me 90 day extensions on ED status? I am in Chiang Mai. Thanks.

Does this card give you SARS antibodies?

@Darren *******

This post is not about “after corona”. It specifically states a date, sep 26.
