TLDR : Answer Summary
A member of the Phuket community inquired about the potential extension of the Covid Visa in Thailand, which was recently extended until August 24. Various responses indicate that while extensions have been granted in the past, future extensions are uncertain. It is suggested that visa applicants should not rely solely on the Covid extension due to possible rejections by immigration. Additionally, alternative visa options may take time to prepare, emphasizing the need for timely decisions.

you can apply for a Covid extension until August 24th. That doesn't mean you'll get the extension.

Ah ok)

So i have to wait again news if they will Extend again 30 Days)

But i cant take the Risk to wait 5 days until they will give some News)

Because other Visas need minimal 3 Weeks to Prepare everything for 1 year.

So should i wait until the News comming or not?

I wouldn't wait. But I'm just saying that Covid extension is not guaranteed. The immigration officer can reject you.

Are you unable to travel due to the pandemic?

Why?

They extended it last month for 30 more days until August 24th.

Every other time they've always extended it for 60 days.

You'd better start preparing for other options as all signs point to it ending soon.

They usually don't announce if it will be extended until 3 or so days before.

It's extended through to 24 August
