TLDR : Answer Summary

There has indeed been an official extension related to the Covid-19 visa. A member shared the official notice regarding the extension in the group. However, it's not clear if further extensions beyond the current allowance (60 days) will be permitted, especially for those on the STV visa who have already extended it twice.

Thanks again! That's what I expected.

Go back to States to get a shot, then apply Non-O😅

Thanks a lot guys!

Anybody succeeded to change STV to OA?

I came back with STV as my OA had expired...

Unlikely as the STV was sold as not being able to change to any other visa or extension of stay inside Thailand other than as specified by the STV program (i.e., another 90-day STV extension if any of the two allowed remaining).

A Non-OA is a visa, and the Non-OA visa is not sold inside Thailand. SOME agencies may be able to convert an STV to a Non-O visa though but it's a route I would not recommend going.

My advice:

Leave Thailand and return on a Non-OA or Non-O visa

If you are here on an STV, you can ONLY get a 90 day extension of stay based on STV, you CAN NOT get a 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19

UPDATE: I missed the STV in your question. I think Benjamin is correct, you can only get a 90-day extension based on your STV.

PREVIOUS ANSWER:

@Eri ***********

yes, it means you can purchase a 60 day covid extension for 1,900 baht up until the end of July. At that time another decision will be made if they will continue to be sold past July or not.
