Hello everyone

The Visa Exemption (30 Days) you get upon arrival is extendable ?

Has anybody done it before?

I am asking for the visa exemption only and not for any other visa types issued by an embassy

Thank you in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, the 30-day Visa Exemption upon arrival in Thailand is extendable. Many people have successfully extended it by visiting an immigration office, paying a fee of 1900 baht for an additional 30 days. There is also an option for a 2-month extension costing 3000 baht, but this generally requires a prior extension. Overall, extending the Visa Exemption is commonly done and is considered a straightforward process.

@Sharon *******

you extended a visa exempt for 2 months? The only 2 month extension I know of available currently is Covid extension but you must have 30 day extension first and at present are available until March 25th (word is this will likely not be extended as borders open up) It is at the discretion of immigration office and the cost is 1900 baht.
