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.
I think they’re making it clear they is the final chance to get a legitimate visa or GTFO. Sep 26 is exactly 6 months after the amnesty period started.
Troy Martin My guess is that a lot of people in Thailand are in that situation. I am one of them, but don’t really have much interest in returning to China even if the borders were open to non-Chinese residents.
