@Jonas *****
I see. If it helps, I just managed to get the extension without problems at the Bangkok Immigration Office in Chaeng Wattana.

@Jonas *****
did you apply officially (paying the 1900THB etc.), or did they tell you they won't give it to you before you even applied?

@Tomasz ***************
one more question if you don't mind: did they ask for a reason for the extension (can't fly back home etc.)? As it officially is a covid extension, after all...

Hi
@Tomasz ***************
, which immigration office did you get your covid extension at? Did you have any trouble with getting it?

@Nigel *********************
Yeah, I meant if they decline the informal request (and half-joking) ;)

Thanks again for all your advice!

@Brandon ***********
In that case I guess it makes sense to apply as close as possible to the end of the current visa termination date, in order to potentially prolong it by a few days via the 7 day stamp?

@Nigel *********************
Maybe I'll just ask for 60 initially, and try to bargain for 30 if they decline ;)

Thanks a lot Nigel!

Just to clarify RE: 1) - the TM7 form that you use to apply for the extension has a field marked "I hereby apply for extension period of temporary stay in the Kingdom for……………days." - I wonder what best to put there.

one more question comes to mind: if they do grant you the covid extension without having to use the regular extension first, can you still use the regular extension afterwards (after the covid extension runs out)?
