Friends US passport need to extend their visa exemption in Bangkok. Do they need to go to Government complex or Muang Thong Thani ? I believe 30 days extension available for 1900 Baht but what about covid extension? Can they apply still? ( Going after New Year 4th or 5th Jan) if they are allowed to apply for covid extension how many day and fee please? Thank you πŸ™

TLDR : Answer Summary
A US passport holder looking to extend their visa exemption while in Bangkok should go to the Muang Thong Thani Immigration office. The standard fee for any extension is 1900 Baht, regardless of the extension's duration. As for the COVID extension, they can inquire directly at the immigration office about its availability, duration, and any associated fees when they apply, ideally around January 4th or 5th.

all extensions are the same price 1900baht no matter the length of time.

If they entered visa exempt they go to the Muang Thong Thani Immigration office to get their 30 day extension and that's where they'd go to get their covid extension too.

They need to ask the officer when they apply

You'd need a TM30 from Bangkok to use the Bangkok immigration

so you have to use the same immigration where you extended? I did extend in Phuket but planning to go back to Bangkok soon… can I there apply for the covid extension? Thanks
