Immigration - 2nd May

[CRUNCHER]

Does anyone know if Jomtien Immigration is open on Monday 2nd May or is it a substitute holiday for Labour Day?

Thanks

Open apparently,......http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/913361-immigration-closed-days/

[jaapfries]

On Labor Day, all Government Offices & Departments are open; apparently Labor Day is only a holiday for "labourors" NOT the Bigger Boys . . . ..

Thanks for answers

I was in Jomtien Immigration yesterday and they had a sign at the information counter saying closed 2-5th of May !

can i assume the Jomtien office will be open as normal from Friday 6th to 20th May which is another holiday? Thanks

at least 5-9.5 jomtien office is closed.

at least 5-9.5 jomtien office is closed.

thanks. Are those dates inclusive i.e. monday 9th closed too ?

[KhunBENQ]

Yes, closed on Monday 9th.

Again on Fr, May 20th.

thanks. By the cringe the 10th will be busy (my 90 day date). Like a Harrods sale I'll camp out on the 9th.

well i tried to camp out on the 9th (post # 10) but the car park was already full with happy campers

So I left

Returned at 0830 today Tuesday and the office was absolutely jam packed literally and about 100 guys queuing outside

can you imagine just being an Immigration staff member facing that lot and in this heat ?

They are deserving of every courteous consideration in my view and under these stressful circumstances

The reception officer did confirm i can take 7 days to do my 90 day report which was the good news

May revisit on Wednesday late morning without sleeping bag

I was there too today too to get 2 residence certificates.. Really crowded and looked like "madhouse"

But people who was there for same reason as me it was pretty fast and easy..

Price was 2 x 250

did the deed at 1430 today with just a 10 minute wait

As i posted elsewhere their computers were sick today (my new 90 date was hand written) which may answer other posters' questions posted elsewhere

The farang on front desk said the office processed over 3000 people on the 10th.
