Hi just to update anyone who needs a COVID extension at Krabi immigration. Went there this morning at 8.40am.was seen pretty much straight away. Just gave them my passport. Some one made copies of all the relevant passport stamps TM6 card etc. No charge. Had to fill out one form. Give address of my hotel and telephone number. Was given the option of paying 2000 bht for 15 days approval then go back for an extra 45 days. Or pay 3000 bht for the full 60 days. I opted for 15 days approval cos I might have to go back to UK sooner than expected. This was my first time asking for the said COVID extension. I hope this helps anyone.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A recent experience at Krabi immigration revealed a streamlined process for obtaining a COVID extension. The individual was quickly seen, required to submit their passport, and had copies made of necessary documents without any charge. They had to fill out a form with their accommodation details and were given options for a short-term extension: 2000 THB for 15 days or 3000 THB for a full 60 days.
