Do I need to do a 90-day report after extending my STV in Thailand?

Charles ********

You do not need to do 90 day reports on ANY short term visa. You extend every 90 days (or less),which fulfills the requirement. Some offices do use the stamp that say you do.. But don't worry you do not and they will not let you file it.

What are the best travel insurance options for visiting Thailand with children?

Charles ********

Recommend Thai insurance, since most other foreign insurance won't pay for the government required hospital stay if you test positive and are asymptotiatic. AXA seems the best option.

Regarding children, I recommend not have them.

Should I change my COE given the current quarantine rules in Thailand for vaccinated travelers?

Charles ********

You far enough away, there is a chance they could change. There was some discussion of going back to 7 days quarantine as they did not find any problems with it... But the phuket 14 day announcement make it look not good. I say wait and see if it is advantageous.

What are the implications of the September 30 deadline for STV holders in Thailand regarding extensions?

Charles ********

You can stay after Sept 30 with stv, but you can't extend. If you are within the extention timeframe by Sept 30 (varies by office 45 to 7 days), you can extend.

What is the current status of COVID-19 vaccination for foreigners in Thailand?

Charles ********

@Michael *******

yes.... All it does is ask for name, passport number, etc... Provides no place to book a appointment, no indication of what vaccine, when, or how much.... Did you scan the qr code? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

What is the current status of COVID-19 vaccination for foreigners in Thailand?

Charles ********

There is not enough information on what this is. It says booking, but there no appointment on the form. They also ask a lot of personal information with no information on what this. When or what or how much is missing. 🤷‍♂️

Is there a specific insurance that everyone uses to qualify for a visa in Thailand?

Charles ********

I used AXA for my STV which has more requirements than if you are applying for any other visa.

How can I extend my stay in Thailand beyond the 45-day visa exemption?

Charles ********

Visa exempt can be extended for an additional 30 days easily.

If you want to stay long many people switch to ED visa... Or the covid extension if available.
