What documents do I need for a 60-day Covid visa extension in Thailand, and is my current TM30 valid?

Question

Hi all I am currently here on a 60 day TR visa and have extended it once using the regular 30 day extension with my stamp expiring May 31st. I am looking to extend another 60 days under the covid extension.

1. Are the documents required for covid extension the same as regular extension? If not what additional docs are needed?

2. I have covid insurance that was needed for COE that will expire June 15th. Is insurance for the date of the extension period required?

3. Regarding T30 my landlord did not submit on my arrival in March . When I went for the extension immigration made me fill the form I did provid them with landlord lease which was until June15 and they gave me a "receipt of notification" slip. Is this TM30 still valid for the period I am extending or would they require a new one? Would I need to do a renewed lease for this purpose to cover period of extension?

I have found it difficult to explain this to immigration by phone as they don't have the best English and it's not the simplest of questions that's why I am hoping for any insight from this group it would be greatly appreciated.

The user is seeking clarification on the required documentation for extending their 60-day TR visa in Thailand due to Covid, specifically asking if the documents needed for a Covid extension differ from a standard extension. They also inquire whether they need to update their Covid insurance, which is set to expire during their extension period, and the validity of their TM30 notification considering their landlord did not submit it promptly. Comments suggest that additional documents may be required depending on the immigration office, and confirm that the TM30 receipt should suffice for the extension.

1. depends on the immigration office, you may or may not need the letter from your embassy or email/website capture saying they don't issue the letter

2. You don't need Covid insurance for extension based on unable-to-travel-due-to-covid-situation

3. your current TM30 receipt is fine

The only other document you *may* need is a letter from your embassy saying you can not travel back home OR an email from your embassy saying they don’t issue the letters or a screenshot from your embassy website saying they don’t issue the letter.

2 a TM30 is only submitted when you start staying at a location.
