Just go to the photo/copy shop at the rear of the main Immigration building near to Chiang Mai airport and pay 100 baht for 4 photos.

As part of your 'unable to travel due to covid' application, you will need to submit a copy of this TM30 slip.

better still, file the TM30 yourself if your immigration office allows the tenant to do this. Then you know its been done. I've been doing this for the past 4 years.

There is no visa on entry (45 days). There is a free visa exemption entry for visitors from certain countries for 45 days and I assume that's what you are coming in on.

These can be extended for an additional 30 days.

After I entered on a 60 day tourist visa in May 2021, I was informed by Immigration that I had to apply and pay for the 1900THB 30 day visa extension first and only after obtaining this visa could I apply for a 60 day 'unable to travel due to covid extension', despite the covid extension being in existence at that time.

If Immigration doesnt extend the covid extension for a further 2 months beyond 27 Sept which is what is being rumoured, you will be res[rice's to 45 days + 30. If you wanted to stay beyond that, the only options available would be to apply for an alternative visa such as an Ed visa upon your arrival.

agreed

If I'm on a TR visa that expires on 14 July, can I apply for a covid extension on or before this date first, instead of applying for the usual 30 day extension? If so, can I then apply for my 30 day extension just before my covid extension stamp expires?

even better answer! Thanks Benjamin. 👍🏼

I have self filed a TM30 in Chiang Mai for the same current rental property on 4 occasions, each time with just my passport and copy of my rental agreement. On the first occasion, I completed the TM30, after that, the IO just took down the details and added the new date of my report on my TM30 slip, stapled in my passport.

I just do it myself as I then know its been done and I don't have to depend on my fairly unrelaible landlord not doing it and causing me stress later. Always in and out within 10 mins tops, and never had an issue self filing.

I also self filed for a previous rental property also, the first time with a copy of LL's ID and the rental agreement.

👌Tod, thanks both.
