Hello everyone,

I need something to clarify: I have arrived to Thailand on a 30 days exempt, can I extend it at the immigration for another 30 days, taking into consideration that Covid extensions are no more ..? This is my second exemption stamp this year.

Thanks for your help!

Is there a limit to how early you can renew a Covid extension? Can I get a new Covid extension if I have 3 weeks left on my current Covid extension?

Hello, I came to Thailand on a tourist visa in January 2021. I have stayed in Bangkok ever since. I switched to a Non-Immigrant ED visa for studying at a Thai language school in country in April 2021. A few weeks ago I got married to a Thai national. When my ED visa ran out I canceled it and CW gave me a 60 day extension for visiting family, which I am currently on. When I wanted to get my 365 day extension on the basis of being married to a Thai national I was denied because my ED visa was "short-term", for "non-formal education". The head of L1 at CW told my wife that since Covid the regulations have changed, in the past it would have been easy to get an extension, but now they can not do it. She said they could have given me an extension if I had studied for a bachelor or master degree, if I had studied for more than 2 years, but I studied at a Ministry of Education approved language school for 11 months without getting a formal degree, probably that's why they called it "short-term" and "informal education". CW said that all the documents I handed in are in perfect order, the only reason they can not give me an extension is that I got a "short-term" Non-Immigrant ED visa and that I came here on a tourist visa, not a Non-Immigrant O visa. They said that I have to leave the country, get a Non-Immigrant O visa at an embassy or consulate abroad and then I can return. Has anyone had a similar experience, and is there anything I can do in this situation?

Does anyone know if Thailand are accepting the English NHS Covid Recovery QR code as proof of recovery? The website says medical certificate. But I've called the NHS phone line and they seem to think this is the same thing. Thanks ✌️

Hi, I arrived on Thursday with my Thai wife. We were married 3 years ago in Thailand, but stayed in UK for past 2 yrs. When we left on Wednesday to come here. My understanding was come out on a VOA and apply I could apply for 60 day spouse extension. Then for a 12 month visa with 90 day reporting.

From something I read the covid extensions are to end 25th March, with only certain visa's types being granted.

Can anyone advise on the current situation and how I go about extending my visa without having to go back to UK 25th Feb. We have our own house here in Samut Sakhon. Currently in AQ hotel in Bangkok till Thursday next week.

Thanks for the advice in advance.

Question on the 90-day reporting:

I entered the Kingdom last Nov 16 on a 30-day visa exemption, then I applied for a 30-day extension based on Tourism. Currently, I am now on a 60-day extension based on unable to travel due to COVID-19. Should I do the 90-day reporting counting the 1st day I entered the Kingdom (Nov16)? Or how does that work?

Hi All, yesterday I went to apply for my Special Tourist Visa (STV) extension for another 90 days in BKK, and was told I had everything in order except for 1 document: The ASQ certificate from Department of disease control issued by the hotel you first quarantine in.

I arrived in Phuket on Oct 31st, on the first version of the sandbox program. I am double vaccinated from Canada. At the time, all you needed was to quarantine until you get your first negative test taken at the airport. I got mine within 24 hours. Then you were to free to leave your Hotel as long as you stay in phuket. I checked out on Nov 15th, but was not given this form. From what I understand, the hotel was not issuing this document at the time. I reached out to the Hotel, and they claimed they could not issue this document for me, but will look into it with immigration and see what they can do. I'm a little worried, but have some time, my current visa is valid until Jan 28th.

Question1: Am i missing something here? It feels like I'm being squeezed out due to changing requirements due to covid.

Question2: Any recommendations as to how i should proceed?

Thanks in Advance! I believe everything will work out, but the doubt is starting to creep in.
