ORIGINAL POSTER

I’m sorry if this question has already been asked, but I’m going to ask anyways. I’m on tourist visa and made a border run to laos and got 60days+30days extension last month. I’m currently in phuket, if I understand this right i still have a normal 30 days extension,and this does not require the letter from the embassy right? Im a philippines passport holder btw, thank you so much in advance to anyone who can answer. Stay safe! 🙂

TLDR : Answer Summary

A Philippines passport holder who recently made a border run to Laos and received a 60+30 day extension can apply for an additional 30-day extension without needing an embassy letter. To apply, one must visit the local Thai immigration office with the required documents.

If you did a border run to Laos last month you got a new 30 day stamp on return...

So...

You do NOT need an Embassy letter for this 30 day extension.

Go to local Thai immigration office to apply fir 30 day extension.

Embassy letter not needed.

For 30 days extension You need ONLY:

-passport

-copy of passport front page

-copy of stamp/visa page

-copy of TM6 form

-filled TM7 form

-two photos

-1,900 Thai baht

Good Luck
