The extension is added to the end, so you get 30+30 days.

@Nishant ***********
in Phuket if you have entered Tr15 (2 weeks) you can apply for a "covid" extension 30 days only.

You would require either an embassy letter or an exit flight with payment confirmation.

There is a list at Phuket immigration of what you need in full, with 2 sets complete.

Otherwise it is only a 7 day extension available.

Not a denial.

Yes you will go under consideration in Phuket and have to return on the date specified.

As already mentioned MUST be tm30 registered in Phuket.
Chris *******
Most jobs that a foreigner would qualify for will require a degree or some sort of professional certification.

Like a dive instructor etc.

So it is not an easy road to work in Thailand.

No official release yet on extending Covid and border runs are back.

@Rob *****
sorry but Phuket does not require a thai document translated.

In fact they want Koror 2 original with one copy.

ANY income gained inside Thailand other than interest /gains from your bank accounts (which is taxed right away) is illegal.

So you own a condo and rent it out, air bnb pays your off shore account, you don't register TM30 or Vat or any govt tax etc.

No one rats you out.....but piss off the wrong person.

There are grey areas in all things, what you do behind closed doors is your business.

Is it worth the risk is up to you.

Personally not a chance I'll mess with my retirement.

The chances of being denied entrance on an e-visa correctly completed is virtually nil.

So no worries on your flight etc.

In the super remote chance denial of an e-visa: you still fly in visa-exempt anyway. So you still come.

More of a problem is people not getting the e- visa before flying in, so due to timing, they come in visa exempt and the E-VISA doesn't t Get used at all.

And getting denied an e-visa has NO effect on entering visa exempt, they are not connected.
