Hi all,
I will be doing my first covid extension in the next couple of days before my tourist extension runs out (10th of september) at Chaengwattana Bangkok
I received the following documents when I was last at the immigration office : TM7 - STM2 - Affadavit for granting permission to temporarily stay in the Kingdom (...) - Acknowledgement of Penalties for a Visa Overstay
Quick questions
* I read on some posts about TM30 that needs to be filed and handed over as well? But I also think I read somewhere that they don't ask for this in Bangkok?
* About TM30 am I right that this needs to be filed prior to my covid extension at MTT or am I mixing everything up?
* 90 day report, when I got my 30 day extension for TR VISA on the stamp it is written need to report every 90 day: is this from the day I entered Thailand or from the day i got the 30 days extension? (When I asked the immigration officer he kind of brushed it off saying that it was once I start my covid extension?)
* TM30 needs to be done only once and 90 days report every 90 day (of course) at MTT?
I'm sorry this is all very confusing for me and I tried looking through all the posts here on the group but bare with me these are my first times dealing with immigration in Thailand so I'm just really really lost
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is preparing to apply for a COVID extension of their tourist visa in Bangkok and is confused about the necessary documentation, particularly regarding the TM30 form and the 90-day reporting requirement. They ask if TM30 is needed for the extension, how it relates to their stay, and the timing for the 90-day report after being granted a previous extension. Responses indicate that TM30 may or may not be required in Bangkok and that reporting requirements can depend on when the user last entered Thailand or obtained an extension.
