What Are the Requirements and Process for a Tourist Visa Extension in Koh Samui During COVID-19?

Just received my tourist visa extension due to COVID at Koh Samui immigration office. I’m a US citizen and had the letter from the embassy with my name, DOB, and passport number on it (required).

I was granted a 15-day extension. I already used my 30-day extension at the beginning of this month (expires March 31), so this does not apply to regular extensions.

3 copies were required of the extension application (receive at immigration office), passport pages (info page + stamp page with departure card), letter from embassy, Thai house contract. There were 2 other COVID extension forms they also required me to fill out on-site.

I arrived at 9:45am and was number 186 in line. By 1:30pm my number was called for paperwork review. That’s when I was informed I needed 3 copies of everything and was given extra papers to sign, so they allowed me to step to the side to complete the forms and make more copies without losing my place in line. By 3:15pm I was allowed to submit all my paperwork and it was finished by 4:30pm.

Cost was 2000baht.

Thank you to everyone who has posted your updates during this crazy time! Hope this helps someone.
