ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello! I'm currently in Phi Phi. Arrived from USA with Visa stamp. Revived 30 day extension in Phuket which ends on December 14th. We’re planning on applying for a Covid extension in Krabi. And I’ve read and saved a lot of helpful posts about the process and  documents needed.

My questions are : 

- is there a specific office in Krabi we need to go to?

- Has anyone received their extension from Krabi and can share their experience?

- what specifically should I write in the area that asks for ypur reason for requesting extension of stay?

- we plan to go to the immigration office on the 25th the same day we arrive in Krabi (before we go to the hotel we’re staying at) will this be enough time? (I’ve asked the hotel to file the TM30 on our behalf but haven’t received a response)

- anything else that I should know? 

Thank you all so much for this group and all of your helpful advice! :)

Why not apply for it where you are now ?

Frankly I believe its best you apply in Phuket. They seem to be easier in granting extensions. (Unless they said something to you last time ??? )

You must submit your COVID extension application before your current permission to stay stamp expires...

November 14th.

Any day after the 14th means you will be on overstay.
