thank you Steve *********
As a technicality, it's NOT "visa on arrival". You'll be there without a visa - but still need all the other bits and pieces. Take the time to trawl back through this group and you'll read all the info - several times.

I thought I read that exempt visas could not be extended. Is that wrong?Steve *********
@Joe ********
the point I'm making is that an exemption is NOT a visa. An exemption can be extended once (though, during covid, normal rules may not apply and multiple extensions might continue to be possible - but don't bank on it),Eʀɩcʌ ******

It can be extended. I’ve heard for about 1.9B Paul *****************
15 Days Qurantäne same Jail for 2000$ in Bangkok plus Tests and covid Insurance waiting you, pay Big Money lose Time to. 45 Days but 15 Days away.

You can extend your visa on arrival and get another 30 days... 15 days quarantine sucks but it’s what is required now.

Yes I've done it. Very simple.
