TLDR : Answer Summary

This post discusses options for extending a stay in Thailand due to COVID-19 flight delays, including obtaining a sick visa extension, hospital documentation, and alternative solutions like border runs. Community responses provide insights on current immigration practices and issues with consulates not issuing specific letters for extensions.

Tod *********

At this time the US consulate is NOT issuing the "unable to travel due to covid-19" embassy letter so you can get a 30 day extension at the immigration office.

You find your own way to extend your stay OR you find a way back to the US.

Might be smart to do it while a border is open...to give you a certain added 60 days/2 months.

And being bored at the airport is not sick enough to get you a medical statement that you can not fly.

If you are hospitalized, you can ask a letter from your doctor and a hospital staff can visit the immigration office with your passport and the letter to apply for an Extension of Stay. It must be done before you run into overstay.
