ORIGINAL POSTER

Hey all,

Can a visa exemption be extended or changed over to a different type of visa? I know this was possible in the pre-COVID days, but just want to make sure it's still an option with the new rules. 

Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around the possibility of extending a visa exemption or changing it to a different visa type in Thailand, particularly in light of updates to immigration rules post-COVID. It is confirmed that a standard 30-day extension is still available.
