Greetings! In Phuket now (under the visa waiver program 45 days) What are the required documents for a Covid 60 days extension visa? Thank you in advance. J
Answer summary
To apply for a 60-day Covid extension visa in Phuket under the visa waiver program, you will need several documents: a copy of your passport data page, recent visa (if applicable), departure card (TM6), latest entry stamp, proof of TM30 filing, 2 passport photos, completed TM7 and STM2 forms, and 1,900 THB. Ensure all copies are in portrait orientation, as required by Phuket's immigration office.

A copy of any previous Covid extension stamps (signed) (Phuket requires this other offices may not)
In Phuket they require the copies to be in portrait not landscape. This means the top of your passport aligns along the shorter side of the A4. Except for the Data Page where most passports are “sideways”
(Other offices may not be as pedantic)
A filled out TM7 (application form for extensions) - the form doesn’t have a space for your email or phone number but just write it on the back (page 2).
A filled out STM2 (acknowledgement that you understand the rules for overstaying)
A filled out “I don’t want to leave because of Covid form” - I have no idea if it has an official name or number.
And 1,900 baht.
The forms are available at your local office. Most have places on site or nearby that can do the copies and photos.
Many offices will give you a “under consideration” stamp requiring you to return somewhere from 5-14 days later where they will stamp for the remaining 60 days. If they do you MUST use the same office to “close out” that stamp. For example you cannot get a “under consideration” stamp from Bangkok and close that out in Chiang Mai 15 days later.
b. a copy of your most recent visa (if you have one)
c. a copy of your most recent stamp
d. a copy of your departure card
2. A TM30, filed in the immigration office.
3. The forms (each immigration office may have different forms, and want to use their special forms)
4. [THEY MAY ASK] A letter from your embassy saying you can not return, OR a print out from your embassy website saying they don’t issue the letters, OR a print out of a letter from the embassy saying they don't issue those letters.
