The process is very easy and straightforward. I spent 3 hours at the immigration office + 1900 bahts (extensions fees) + approximately 400 bahts for printing/coping.
The documents needed:
- 01 month bank statement (from the bank app)
- Work contract (translated in English with Google Translate) with a part which CLEARLY says that you are allowed to work online and aren't tied to a specific location
- TM30
- Previous 90-day report
- Lease agreement
- Thailand Digital Arrival Card
- Copy of the passport's biopage + all stamped pages
- a 4x4 picture
That's all. You give your documents. They give you a number and then you wait for your turn.
The bureau was full but 3 hours later, I was out with my stamped passport and 6 more months!
Don't let the fear mongers convince you that immigration "hates" DTV, doesn't want to process it or doesn't know how to handle it.
I’m on an entry stamp and it expires the 11th of October. I’m wondering what are the requirements that immigration could ask me for? I’m in Bangkok and I have to go to IT Center to extend the stamp. So far I’ve read that I need the 1900 baht, anything else they could ask me for? TM 30? Outgoing accommodations? 20,000 baht?
Just did my Covid extension at Surat Thani Immigration, last year I paid 3000 but they must have thought I was cute this year because they only charged me 1900.
Hi, I searched the group first but I'd just like to clarify since things change so often.
I arrived on a visa exempt, which expires Saturday. So, I should go to Immigration on Friday to extend, yes? Not sure I understand the COVID extension versus regular extension.
Also, can you please advise what I need to bring with me to extend and the price?
Applied today for a 2nd Covid 60 day extension. Current stamp expires 30 Nov & I already applied b4 26 Sept for my 1st extension. No embassy letter or rental contract required this time. Was given under consideration stamp to return 14 Dec.
FYI: I returned to the Tak Immigration office in Mae Sot today (Thursday, October 8th), and I received an extension of stay stamp up until November 30th without any issues.
I had gone in previously (on September 30th) with an "under consideration" stamp and I received an extension of stay until October 26th. This extension of stay was the usual 30-day extension based on an embassy letter. (I had been on amnesty previous to that, having entered Thailand as a tourist.)
However, the new policy had not come into effect yet on September 30th, and I had to return today, about a week later to get the new November 30th stamp.
I did not have to fill out any forms, provide any photocopies, sign anything, or pay any extra fees. I simply handed over my passport, and they checked my October 26th extension of stay stamp and then inserted a new stamp dated for November 30th.
The immigration clerk also told me about the possibility of applying for the new 60-day tourist visa for after November 30th. This 60-day visa, she said, would cost 1,900 baht. She initially told me that I would need to provide an embassy letter for this new 60-day visa, but then she said that if I could not provide such a letter, I simply had to fill out a form and tick the box that says I couldn't get such a letter. She gave me a copy of this form in advance.
I was a bit confused about this, but my sense was that an embassy letter would be accepted in support of this 60-day tourist visa, but it wouldn't be absolutely required. If you could not get such a letter, you could simply fill out a form stating this and sign it and that would be acceptable. (I'll try to attach a photo of this form.)
The immigration office was completely empty. I was the only person there. And the visit was fast and efficient, and the clerks were very friendly and helpful and provided me with all the information they could. A very nice experience.
