Is there an exemption to the 180-day visa stay limit for pregnant women in Thailand?

If you fly now you will need a doctors certificate confirming how many weeks pregnant you are and you're fit to fly. Beyond 32 weeks pregnant, no airline will let you fly.

extension. need all documents again, freshly dated. work or soft power proof. 500k baht proof for more than a month. residency proof. and maybe more. ask at your local immigration office and follow their advice!

alternatively fly now or go by car to border bounce

Somebody else did a same day Singapore to Samui border bounce. If you can fly now, you can have a visa till nearly September.

go now and come back to reset 180 days

Best is to fly out asap... Peace of mind because in case the extension is refused you will be given a 7 days notice to leave (and you don't want to overstay)

This is going to be messy when they deny you entry for border bouncing.

I answered this in a diff post for a woman who was also in the same boat.

You need a medical certificate from your doctor - they should clearly explain why you need the exemption such as not safe to travel for your baby. You are a nursing mother and your Thai baby will not be fully vaccinated. Most Thai families don't even leave the house for the first couple months with baby (it is a cultural norm) and mothers and babies are treated very kindly in Thailand actually...So.. Ask your doctor for the medical certificate

That says you and your baby are unfit to travel because ( have them list reasons and how long they suggest)

Then take q copy of your visa, your passport, babies birth certificate, a TM7 and money (1900 thb)

I'm sure they will grant it for you... Then if you need another extention speak with your doctor and get another certificate (do it each time)

If the father is Thai your life would be much easier if you got legally married, you wouldn't have to leave 😉

I would be extremely careful about doing a 24 hour border run... There is a good possibility you will be detained and rejected especially with all the visa changes. We just had a friend do this and they were detained and told to return to their home country first then come back... Speak with your doctor about writing on the medical certificate "Not fit to travel due to advanced pregnancy and chances of early labour"

At this point Thai doctors actually give you progesterone for the plane because they don't want the pressure to accidentally cause pre term labour... A medical certificate from a Thai doctor holds alot of weight.. 💪

There is the possibility to just wait.. Have your baby and just focus on that.. Then.. After your baby is born ask your doctor for help with the medical certificate.. I wouldn't chance leaving the country if you want your baby to be born here.. Anything can happen 🙏

Extend for 180 for 1900baht

Basically too lazy to do a short trip - “it’s all about me and my new baby” 🤷‍♂️

No.

Do it early and reset the 180 days.

It's staggering how many people have the DTV yet don't even know the basics

Fly to SIN and back from Samui. It's not too pricey

Simply will have to do a visa run, before or close , least then no worry for another 6 months

If it's easy for you to provide updated versions of all the evidence you provided to get approved for the visa and you have a minimum of 16 days left before the first 180 days ends then I hear it's a bit of a run around and they don't like doing it but it's totally possible to get an extension of a further 180 days without leaving. Sounds like you have a valid reason and in my experience Thai people even in immigration offices have empathy.

You can apply for a 6 month extension, but it would be easier to leave now and come back for a fresh 180 days. How many weeks are you, can you still fly? There are short international flights from Samui

There are medical extensions. Will need support of Dr / Hospital. How long can they "Sign you" off from travelling though? As othes have said - better try to do a border run ASAP but you location makes it more difficult.

You can leave in March and return in March. You will receive a new 180 day stamp when you enter

Leave before April and back or try to get an extension at immigration (even though plenty have failed doing so). There is no exemption.
