Hi all! I am malaysian and planning to visit thailand on november. However, the visa exemption only allow to stay up to 30 days. Can anyone advise how can I apply to extend the stay to 60 days? Is STV the correct visa?
Should I apply STV before I go to thailand? If yes, can we apply online or we must visit the royal thai embassy in person?
Thank you!
TLDR : Answer Summary
A Malaysian planning to visit Thailand can initially stay for up to 30 days under the visa exemption. To extend the stay to 60 days, one can apply for a 30-day extension at a local immigration office in Thailand. This requires necessary documents, including a valid passport, copies of visa and immigration stamps, two passport photos, and a fee of 1,900 THB. Alternatively, obtaining a single-entry tourist visa before arrival allows a 60-day stay, which can also be extended by an additional 30 days. Regarding the STV, it permits a longer stay of up to 270 days but involves meeting specific conditions.
