Covid extensions after July 25?
JoseThailand replied to JoseThailand's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You're right. Even if there is no extensions after July 25, the current extension allows people to stay until the end of September, which gives plenty of time to sort things out and consider other options. -
As Covid is receding, some people think that Covid extensions will come to an end. But, as we have seen, Covid extensions have little to do with the actual Covid and border closures. Covid is almost forgotten, borders are practically open, with some requirements. The officials could have easily stopped the extensions long before and kicked everyone out. But, for some reason, they didn't. That makes me think that they actually want us here. Tourist arrivals are still far below pre-Covid numbers. It may be partly due to the economic situation and the Ukraine war. Rising fuel prices and longer air routes have made air travel significantly more expensive. Also, people simply travel less in times of economic turmoil. As a side note, Covid extensions have gone hand-in-hand with the Emergency decree, which Prayut is willing to extend. So, my guess is that we will see Covid extensions after July 25.

I know that they are afraid of confrontation if you show them that you're not a pussy and know your rights, take a video, make phone calls, etc. -

I would never, in all sanity, speak with them a word in Thai. Only English. I would make calls to Tourist Police and embassy immediately. -

In Khaosan road, patrol police regularly stop and search foreigners, without any probable cause or search warrant. That's clearly a violation of Thai laws and must be reported. Most tourists don't wanna take the trouble, though. -

There is Tourist Police, Complaints Office, Ombudsman, etc. You can even complain to the regular police, too. See more here: https://www.en.siam-info.de/paperwork/royal_police.html -
