TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, the 60-day COVID extension is available for US passport holders on a SETV before January 29th. To apply for the extension in Samui, you will need several documents: a copy of your passport data page, a passport photo, proof of filing a TM30, a copy of your departure card (TM6), a copy of your latest entry stamp, a filled-out TM7 application form, a filled-out STM2 form confirming your understanding of overstaying rules, a filled-out form indicating your wish to stay due to COVID (exact name unknown), and a fee of 1,900 baht. Note that requirements may slightly vary by office.

You’ll need this stuff. Not all offices have the same requirements so it may be slightly different depending on which of the 70+ offices your use.

A copy of your passport data page, a passport photo, proof of filing a TM30, a copy of your departure card (TM6) a copy of your latest entry stamp, a filled out TM7 (application form for extensions), a filled out STM2 (acknowledgement that you understand the rules for overstaying) and a filled out “I don’t want to leave because of Covid form” - I have no idea if it has an official name or number. And 1,900 baht. The forms are available at your local office. Most have places on site or nearby that can do the copies and photos.

thanks a lot. How does one obtain proof of filing a TM30, as I have been staying in hotels?

ask the hotel to print out a screenshot of the filing they did for you.
