hi guys, i have question about my STV visa i got my first extension on 18 august until 15 November i asked for my last and second extension before 30 September and the immigration told me if not possible to extend because is more than 45 days before my visa finish is true i count and is 47 days so i said for 2 days i can't extend he say u can't but u can try to change ur visa before the end of ur visa i m really confuse because i want to stay in thailand 3 months more and i know is impossible to change STV visa , so is meaning i have to leave thailand come back with TR visa and paid new quarantine ....

TR Visa successfully extended without embassy letter - Chiang Mai (1st extension).

I'm Italian, Single Entry TR, I got stamped 60 days back in February, then amnesty came in before I could make my regular 30-day extension.

I went to CM immigration office (Promenada mall) a couple of weeks ago and got rejected because of no embassy letter.

Yesterday in this group I read Brett' successful story and decided to give it a try again.

Weird enough, the same officer who last time told me I needed the embassy letter, this time got me in.

Other than the passport, you'd need the following documents:

Copy front page passport (1)

Copy of Visa (1)

Copy of entry stamp (1)

TM.6 (1)

TM.30 (1 copy)

Request of extension form (TM.7)

As I didn't have TM.30 it took me way longer to get that first. But with all the papers in my hands, it took just a bit more than 2 hours.

If it wasn't for this group and especially Brett' story I wouldn't have tried again.

It's a hit or miss. But if you missed it the first time and you are in CM (dunno about other cities), you might want to try again.

Thank you again guys for sharing all your stories.
