What reasons can you provide to be eligible for a 30-day visa extension in Thailand?
What reasons do you give to make you eligible to get 30 day extension? Can you say tourism or does it have to be more specific? Thank you
Answer summary
To be eligible for a 30-day extension of a tourist visa in Thailand, you can simply state 'tourism' or 'extend holiday' as your reason. Several respondents confirmed that mentioning tourism is sufficient and that detailed explanations are typically not required. Some have also suggested mentioning COVID-19, especially if applicable, but clarity on the context (normal tourist visa vs. COVID extension) is essential. Overall, 'tourism' or similar phrases suffice without needing to elaborate.

This is for a 30-day extension of a tourist visa. Not a 60-day COVID extension. All the comments saying "write COVID" are wrong.

... You have a tourist visa, and want to stay longer, for tourism. So you write "tourism." Details not needed.
