Don't THEY have the holiday calendar at hand?

Featured Replies

Sure I am not the first to fall in this trap and I should know about Thai holidays, mea culpa.

But that immigration stamps you to come back on a holiday?

Just realized when reading about the oncoming holiday closures (July 28 and 29, August 12).

Should I try my luck on Thursday, August 11? Monday 15 is the last admitted until day.

Not unusual for them to do the report back date on holidays and weekends.

You could try on the 11th or wait until Monday the 15th.

The under consideration stamp allows you to stay in the country until your application is approved. The report back date is just that and is not the end of the under consideration period.

The dates for yearly extensions, 90 day reports and under consideration date stamps are all generated by the computer and it does not take the weekends or the holidays listed into account so it shows the operator what date to stamp in the passport.

And using common sense and not telling you to report back on a date they are closed is out of the question.

Can you not go up to two weeks early? Go tomorrow?

No

There is no rule that states that for a under consideration period.

I frequently get 90 day reports etc stamped for a Saturday or Sunday.

I simply go before the required date.

The difference is that for 90 day report there are clear rules for doing early or after the due date.

I will try the 11th. 15th is the last day of the visa exempt stay.

It will not be a problem after the 15th since the under consideration stamp allows you to stay until the visa application is approved.

Your visa exempt end date is irrelevant now that you have the "under consideration stamp".

You can go on 15th, 16th .... you could even go on 19th, just say sorry that you are late and it won't be a problem.

assume this stamp is related to the initial 90 day Non-O, and not for subsequent extensions, it'll be a real pain if they start doing under-considerations for annual retirement extensions, it's bad enough that some offices have started come back tomorrow for your stamps.

The under consideration stamp is only needed for visa and extension applications that have to be approved at the division level of immigration. For example extensions based upon marriage to a Thai and in some cases extensions based upon working.
