Can my Indian friend extend their 60-day visa exempt entry in Phuket for 30 days instead of 7 days?

Visa Extension Thailand Visa Rules Visa Exempt Entry Indian Passport Holders Phuket Immigration

Feb 27, 2025

a year ago

ORIGINAL POSTER

Asking for my Indian friend.  They want to extend (here in Phuket currently on a 60day visa exempt entry).

Are they eligible for a 30 day extension or only 7 days?

Know it was 7 days before, not sure it was relaxed when India went to visa exempt entry.

Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary

An Indian citizen currently in Phuket on a 60-day visa exempt entry is eligible for a 30-day extension. This updated rule allows for an additional 30 days instead of the previously common 7 days. Confirmation from local immigration authorities in Phuket is recommended.

Unless I'm mistaken there's no issue getting a 30 day extension on a 60 day visa exempt entry for passport holders of India.

@Stuart ********
