Extending O visa - Which date is used?

[spambot]

Today just back from Bangkok immigration (CW) - I got an O visa.

I was surprised that the 90 days started from the day that I applied for the Visa and not from today when I received the visa.

 

I will go back to get a 12 months extension (based on retirement) on 20th Dec - The end date for the O Visa is 19th Jan.

 

When does the 12 month start for the extension -  20th Dec or 19th Jan?

It is normal for them to date the visa and entry stamp for the date you apply.

Your extension will start from January 19th.
