How does the COVID visa extension in Thailand work before the January 2022 deadline?

Question

I noticed that the Thailands Covid visa amnesty has been extended until January 26 2022. Does that mean that if I obtain an extension any time during the next 2 months I must leave thailand by January 26, or does it mean that  if i get a Covid extension  any time  before January 26 then i can stay for 2 more months? If I apply on January 15, for example, and it is accepted, can I stay until March even with no further visa extensions? Or must I leave by January  26?

Ask Thailand · Answer

The COVID visa extension in Thailand, which can be applied for until January 25, 2022, grants 60 days of stay from the date of application. If a person applies for an extension on January 15, it will be valid until mid-March, regardless of the January 25 deadline. The key point is that the last day to apply for this extension is January 25; however, once granted, the stay can extend beyond that date depending on when the application was made.

Everything depends on what your current visa is. The Jan. 25 date is the last day you can apply. No matter what day you apply, if you are given the COVID extension, you will get a total of 60 days starting the day you apply. Some immigration offices give a "under consideration" stamp. This also counts in the 60 days total.

It's January 25. Not 26. It's not an amnesty, it's COVID extensions.

Monti ******** · Answer

If you already have a Covid extension 60 days will be added to your current extension of stay. If this is your first Covid extension it will be 60 days from the date of your application. The day the program ends just means the last day someone can apply for this type of extension.

It means you can apply for a Covid extension up until January 25th. If you get one before that date you’d be given 60 days, so that would take to sometime in March.
