Hello, I'm planning to apply for 30 days extension on my travel visa. I noticed that on the tm7 form, there is a field for TM 6 form No. but I never had to fill this in at the airport and I was let through without any questions. How can I solve this issue? also please let me know if there are any tips or guides online to help smooth out my extension process. I'm mainly doing it to switch over to non-ed visa with my university as they said I needed 1 more month of time for it.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on how to complete the TM7 form for a 30-day extension of their travel visa, specifically regarding the TM6 form number that they have not been required to fill out upon arrival. A community member suggests simply leaving the TM6 field blank, as it has been suspended for air arrivals for over a year. The user is also looking for tips or online resources to facilitate their visa extension process, as they aim to switch to a non-ed visa with their university.

TM6 has been suspended for air arrivals for about a year now. Just leave it blank.

ah i see thank you. Also is it better to do this through VFS or should I go to my local ( samut Prakan ) office?

there's not really much benefit to the e-extension. You're still going to have to go to the office and bring all the documents you uploaded to them. And you'll have to pay an extra fee as well.

ah I see, I thought it would smooth out the process or smth. Also should I just fill in my reason as traveling around more or should I be honest and fill in that I need this for my non-ed visa.
