Anyone can share their experience if IOs in Phuket are keen on approving a Covid Extension as a first extension for a Canadian National on a Visa Exempt Entry scheme. TIA 🙂

TLDR : Answer Summary

The post inquires about the likelihood of Immigration Officers (IOs) in Phuket approving Covid Extensions for Canadian nationals entering Thailand under the Visa Exempt Entry scheme. Comments suggest that it may be beneficial to check recent experiences or to seek answers in specific Phuket-related groups, and a reminder is given to focus on responses from within the last two weeks.

Be aware of newly announced Thai Immigration directive re COVID EXTENSIONS...Read bottom right five lines.

I'm going to let this on because I'm curious about the answer as well.

You may get better answers posting on a Phuket related group though.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: If anyone responds, only give a report RECENTLY (as in, about two weeks ago), AND about one of the immigration offices in Phuket.
