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.

can you confirm that for Phuket?
