I think the Songkran holiday is not a holiday this year so the offices are open or?

 

They will be open. Same for banks and other offices that would of been closed.

I think this answers your query.

ince 8 April the Visa Amnesty Scheme for Thailand has entered into force.

The notification was signed by Prime Minister Prayut and Minister of Interior Anupong on 7 April. It has now been published in the State Court and immediately comes into force.

Main points below:

1. foreigners with a Thai hometown, who are now outside Thailand, can enter Thailand, even if their period outside Thailand is longer than a year.
2. Foreigners whose visa expires between 26 March and 30 April 2020 will receive an automatic visa extension until April 2020., 30 This includes those who own all types of visas, including visa exemption (i.e. tourists who 30 days have arrived and received) and Visa-on-Arrival. * Foreigners who stay in Thailand for more than 90 days and have to submit a residence certificate, the deadline will be extended until April 30, 2020, if the deadline was 26 March 2020-30 April.
3. Foreigners with a border pass [neighbouring countries] that arrived before 23 March 2020 will automatically receive visa extension until the land border opens again. As soon as the land border opens again, they have to leave within 7 days

* If your visa has expired on March 25th or earlier, you must have extended earlier and if the new expiry date after March 25th you will still be eligible this automatic extension.

Summary of the "visa Mamnesty" that Thai immigration offers foreigners:

✅ Anyone legally in Thailand has an automatic extension of 30 days
✅ 90 days reporting duty is postponed
✅ People with Permanent Residence can come back late

A visa support letter is no longer necessary in view of the above scheme. There is no need to extend your visa in person at a local immigration office.

Not sure why you posted that in this topic. There is already a ongoing topic about it with the correct info,

The above is incorrect. It is only for those that have been granted permanent residency in Thailand.
