Anyone know what actual days the main Chiang Mai office near the airport will be closed? Only Tuesday (31st) and Wednesday (1st) or is it more days before and/or after?

I checked the Thai Iimigration website but did see any holiday closure notification..

Thanks...

I needed to go this coming Monday and was told by a Thai friend that Immigration will be closed and reopen on Jan 2.

So I will just wait and join the line on Thursday that will probably extend to Airport Plaza.

Then again... she may be misinformed.

Offical holidays are 31 Dec and 1 Jan. 28 & 29 Dec weekend. Some talk that 30th (Monday) will be a closed day ?? Sounds about right that 2 Jan back to normal.

Govt announces 30 December as public holiday

BANGKOK, 15 October 2013 (NNT) – The cabinet has decided to extend the New Year holidays to five days, announcing December 30 as an additional public holiday.

According to the government spokesperson, the cabinet has approved The Secretariat of the Cabinet’s request declaring Monday, December 30, 2013 as an additional public holiday.

It is expected that the extended holiday will lead to more public spending, which, in turn, will drive the economy forward and support the tourism sector.

This year-end holiday season will begin on December 28, 2013 to January 1, 2014, for a total of 5 days.
