🆕Arrived at the temporary immigration at 8 am. It was all done in about an hour. First, a one-month extension was allowed. I need to come back to immigration in Bangkok a month later. At that time, you will receive an extension of another month for free. I want to stay on Koh Samui for a month but have to come back. There is no extension in Koh Samui immigration. But I am happy to be allowed an extension of 2 months. Thanks to my friends for their advice🙏
PS, I forgot to ask if I need the documents again next time 555
【Question】
Hello everyone. I am Japanese.
I participated here because there is not enough information on the Japanese page.
⭐️ My question is, if the covid extension on Koh Samui was stamped first, then is the same extension possible in Bangkok?⭐️
The Japanese site said that the immigration in Bangkok is very strict. I read that the previous one is not allowed to be extended unless it is a stamp of Bangkok.
I entered Bangkok from Japan in December. After that, I extended it for 30 days first on Koh Samui, and then extended it for 2 months with covid extension. I have been staying for a total of 4 months.
I have all the necessary passport page copies and documents (TM7, STM2, TM30, oath, etc.).
I got all the documents at 11:00 today and finally went to immigration, but it was full and I couldn't get a ticket. I'm planning to go early tomorrow morning or after the holidays again.
Lend me your wisdom
my friends who like Thailand🙏
Thank you😎😎
TLDR : Answer Summary
A Japanese expat asks if a COVID extension done in Koh Samui can be further extended at Bangkok immigration. After sharing their experience of getting an extension in Koh Samui, they express concern about potential strict regulations at Bangkok immigration. Community responses advise that it is not necessary to return to the same immigration office for extensions and that outcomes can vary based on the discretion of the officer. They also recommend arriving early to avoid long wait times.
