Hello, I was getting my covid extension at the Muangthong Immigration Bureau in bkk yesterday. They told us the computer system was down after a long wait and told us to come back another day. Does anyone know if their system is up now? They are not answering the phone or FB messages. I rather not travel all the way there to find out. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user reports that their visit to Muangthong Immigration Bureau for a COVID-19 extension was unsuccessful due to system issues. They seek confirmation on whether the computer system has been restored, as they are unable to get information via phone or social media.

For what it's worth, I haven't heard of any situations of the systems not working yesterday, and it should have been all over the Thai internet.

About what time did you try to get the 60 day extension of stay based on unable to travel due to COVID-19, and what's your nationality?

I was at Chiang Mai airport immigration yesterday and they made an announcement around 14:00 that their system was down. But it didn’t seem to be a problem.

This is news to me. I'm approving this post.

If there are any members who are at MTT (or maybe Changwattana? Or other immigration offices) today, please report if the system isn't working.

If you respond, please include which immigration office you used.

system isn’t working as well at Ayutthaya immigration. Was told to come back tomorrow but no mention of the system coming back by then.
