ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone, Thank you for accepting my question, and I appreciate your help. This is a great group.

I'm currently on a TR visa, on my first 60 days.  The visa expires on Jun 1st, and I can still extend it for another 30 days (I haven't yet). I rent an apartment in BKK.

I know that COVID extensions are until May 28th (or 25th?) at the moment. My passport is Israeli.

My question is: Assuming I want to stay longer than Jun 31st. What is the best course of action for me?

* Should I apply for a regular extension and hope I can get COVID extension later in June?

* Should I try to apply for a COVID extension first and get the 60 days?

* Other suggestions?

Thank you!

You're asking questions that only the immigration office can answer. Once you go to the immigration office and apply for the extension you'll know if you can get the 60 day covid one without the 30 days or if you have to take the 30 days first.

First you need to go to Thai immigration before your current stamp expires... And you can ask for the 60 days COVID extension ...

But most likely will get the usual 30 day extension available to your visa.

Some offices are granting the 60 days...so does not hurt to ask them.

The current COVID extension application time expires Friday May 28th.

Will it be extended? Nobody knows.
