Hi All, 

Any ideas how long is a visitor visa valid for in Thailand given this covid situation (i thought i read somewhere that its 15days on top because of quarantine?! ) 

has anyone had any experience renewing the visitor visa and been refused?

Answer summary

In Thailand, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the validity of a visitor visa can vary based on entry regulations. Generally, individuals who were previously entitled to a 30-day visa exemption may now receive 45 days, with the first 15 days spent in quarantine. A one-time 30-day extension is possible, extending the stay to a total of 75 days. After this period, there may be options for a COVID extension for an additional 60 days, though further extensions are not guaranteed.

Further COVID extensions not guaranteed. I would say that it is likely but definitely not guaranteed.

If you mean the visa exempt entry (it's not actually a visa), you get 45 days when entering as the first 15 are spent in quarantine. You have the ability to get a one-off 30 day extension, giving you a total of 75 days.
