quick question before I go immigration tomorrow my first extension of 30 days I filled out a TM7 form that I printed out myself so what form do I need to do this time to apply for the 60 day covid extension will immigration provide the form inside the building or do I need download a specific form thank you
Answer summary
To apply for the 60-day COVID extension at immigration in Thailand, you will need to fill out the TM7 form, which is used for extensions of stay. It's advisable to acquire this form at the immigration office you visit. Additionally, be prepared with a copy of your passport data page, a passport photo, proof of filing a TM30, a copy of your departure card (TM6), a copy of your latest entry stamp, and possibly any previous COVID extension stamps, depending on the office's specific requirements. Note that if you are applying for the first time, the extension will start from the date of the application.

You’ll need this stuff. Not all offices have the same requirements so it may be slightly different depending on which of the 70+ offices you use.

A copy of your passport data page (signed),

A passport photo,

Proof of filing a TM30,

A copy of your departure card (TM6) (signed)

A copy of your latest entry stamp (signed)

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.

If it’s your first time applying for the extension they’ll date it from the day you apply, so you’d lose any remaining days you have on your current stamp. Subsequent applications would be added on to the existing stamp.

Proof of filing a TM30, is proof that your address is registered at the local Immigration Office.

Can be a print screen like these examples:

"A filled out STM2 (acknowledgement that you understand the rules for overstaying)"

STM2 and form for understanding overstay rules are two different forms

You only can apply for 1 Extension of Stay at the time.

Tomorrow you go for your 30 days and use the TM7 APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TEMPORARY STAY IN THE KINGDOM.

@Robert ******
My first extension was for 30 days on visa exempt which I filled out the TM7 form , that expires next Saturday and now I want to apply for the 60 day covid extension, is that possible because I've seen somewhere to apply before the 25th of March, so what specific documents do I need to download and fill out for the 60 day covid extension

I believe he said he filled out the original 30 day extension TM7 himself previously. Agree it’s worded confusingly.
