Dear.

The due date to claim your prize has already elapsed and your prize officially terminated.However we applied for an extension on your behalf and send your documents to the Interior and finance ministry. The documents sent include the payment slip you made for the government stamp duty fee and they said it is not legible .Kindly resend the copy of the slip so that we can get you an extension for you to be able to have enough time to come to Thailand and make the payment for the clearance certificate. Thank you for your understanding.

Customer satisfaction is our first priority. If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free to contact us. We love to hear from our customers

Sincerely

Mr Shinwat Sompon ( Foreign Operation Manager)
