With 11 days left on the clock, the Immigration Bureau today confirmed that a proposal to extend the visa amnesty is now before the government.
Bureau spokesman Chengron Rimpadee told Coconuts Bangkok the proposed extension, said to be until Sept. 26, will “very likely” be approved as many nations’ borders remain closed due to the pandemic.
The current amnesty ends July 31, and the extension could be approved as soon as Tuesday, when the cabinet convenes its weekly meeting.
