ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi! I arrived on a TR visa and the red stamp allows me to stay until 23 May. This is my first time to do an extension, and I'd like to find out if I can get an extension for more than 30 days? Running low on passport pages so need to maximise the space I have left until I can return to Myanmar around August and hopefully receive a new passport by then.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about extending their TR visa stay in Thailand beyond the 30-day limit due to low passport pages. Responses indicate that a 30-day extension is typically granted first, followed by a possible 60-day COVID-19 extension if requested before May 28. They must ensure sufficient passport pages for stamps. If the user runs out of pages before getting a new passport, they will need to obtain an emergency passport to continue their stay.

Can I ask.. if I get the consideration stamp on the current passport then apply for a new passport (takes 20 business days), can I bring both passports and get the extension on the new passport? Or do I need both the consideration AND extension stamp on the same passport?

IF you get your new passport before the under consideration stamp runs out, take them both

Thanks for information! If I run out of pages before my passport arrives, will I have to leave Thailand or will they take into consideration that I'm waiting for my passport to arrive? Unfortunately it takes months for South-Africans to get a new passport.

nope there is no "take into consideration" anything, if you run outta pages before your new passport arrives you go to your consulate and get an emergency passport to get an extension put in OR you run on overstay.

You can get your 30 day extension stamped in 2 weeks before your

date. 1900b

From the following day, you would be able to apply for the 60 day covid extension until

****

@ 1900b. First given an under consideration stamp, and then you return for the full extension stamp.

NB, most Immigration offices have more paperwork requirements for the covid extension. Clarify this when you visit for your initial 30 days.

Both stamps should be extended from your expiry date, not the date you apply

Who knows for sure what will happen post

, i.e. if further extensions will be granted due to covid.

MOST immigration offices require you to get a 30 day extension of stay based on tourism before you can get a 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19.

AS OF RIGHT NOW, the last day they are selling the 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19 is May 28.
