ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi,

If I have arrived in Thailand on a Tourist visa (over two years ago), switched to an Education visa, and now I've been on a covid ext. visa for the past year, am I eligible for another Covid-19 visa extension on March 20th?

Thanks so much. Michael

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about eligibility for another Covid-19 visa extension after transitioning from a Tourist visa to an Education visa and then onto a Covid extension. Responses clarify that the user, having changed visa categories, likely does not qualify for further Covid extensions, as only Tourist visa holders retained that eligibility after a certain date.

The ED visa changed your category from "tourist" to "non-immigrant ED". After 25-Jan, only "tourist" category remained eligible for covid extensions. You should explore other options now.

no, because you had a non-imm ed before, best immigration will give you is a 7 day must leave the country stamp
