TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is inquiring about the possibility of applying for a COVID-19 visa at a Korat immigration office after changing their address from Pattaya. Multiple comments address whether it’s appropriate to apply at an office where the user does not reside, require several documents for visa extension, and note that different immigration offices may have varying requirements.

My opinion:

You're out of NOTHING trying to apply for a 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19. Different immigration offices have different requirements, but all require the following:

1. Your passport and:

a. a copy of your data ("picture") page

b. a copy of your most recent visa (if you have one)

c. a copy of your most recent stamp

d. a copy of your departure card

2. A TM30, filed in the immigration office district.

3. The forms (each immigration office may have different forms)

4. 2x passport pictures

5. 1,900 THB.

Different immigration offices have different policies. *SOME* may require:

- The ID card of the property owner where you are staying

- Copies of *ALL* stamped pages in your passport

I don't know what Korat's requirements are, sorry.

You do not need to do a TM30 in person, it can be done electronically. The worse that would happen is the immigration office would say no.

You MAY or may not also need a letter from your embassy stating you cannot travel or proof (print out of email reply or web site screen capture) that they don't issue that letter)..

Good luck..but whatever you do...get the COVID extension before Monday.

And be aware you may receive an Under Consideration stamp requiring you to return to the same immigration office for the final stamp in a few weeks.
