ORIGINAL POSTERI have a question regarding my visa.
I arrived in Thailand with a normal tourist visa of one month on the 15 of December (Sha procedure) and then I asked for an extension, valid till the 12 of February. Now my question is: can I ask a second extention? I have a French and a Italian passport.
Thank you so much for helping me!!!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired about the possibility of obtaining a second extension on their tourist visa in Thailand after already receiving one extension. According to comments, a tourist visa typically allows for only one extension of 30 days, and while they can check for eligibility for a COVID-related extension, buying property does not influence their visa status.

this is how it works,
Sadly, there is no "I need more time for xxx" reason to ask for an extension. 😕
@Conte ******
when your current stamp is getting close to running out (12 Feb) you go to your immigration office and see if you can apply for a 60 day covid extension. They either will let you do it or they won't. Sadly, there is no "I need more time for xxx" reason to ask for an extension. 😕

You arrived VISA EXEMPT ENTRY
Got 30 days on arrival
Plus added 30 days extension.
Now you want to apply for a COVID extension. Ask your local immigration office.

ORIGINAL POSTERI think that the only way would be to go directly to the immigration office, as they never reply on the phone.. It will be a hard fight as they are rather rudes!!

No, the Tourist visa allows once an Extension of Stay based on tourism for 30 days.
You might try unable to travel but it seems that is only 10 days at the time.

OK your dates make no sense, a tourist visa is a 60 day entry, I am guessing you entered on a visa exempt and have extended once?
