Positive post for the Covid Extension @ Phangan Immigration, being that you are on a Tourist Visa or Visa Exemption.

All the paperwork is kept in a cabinet outside so you can go before it opens/whenever to collect these. It appeared that as long as you dress appropriately, wear your mask and make sure you have your TM30 you’re good for the extension (there were people walking out successfully on their 8th, 9th, etc extension).

Photocopy and TM30 printout out possible on site, but it’s actually helpful for everyone if you sign all your pages BEFORE getting to the front of the first queue AND TAKE A PEN 🤗 There were people that were there before me that ended up way after me all because of waiting for a pen. All smooth (bar the photocopy opening a bit late), no complaints!

Thanks so much for the report. This will help those looking for an alternative office to apply to if they are turned away at their local office.

Easy to get that by checking into a KP hostel/hotel a few days before....right?

providing they have a TM30 for somewhere local (I believe) and no denied stamp with 7 days to leave I don’t see why not 🤗
