  1. I'm a USA citizen who lost a passport a few weeks ago.

     

    I now have a new American passport, how do I transfer the old stamps when I don't have the old passport?

     

    Should I do this at Chaengwattana or Muang Thong Thani?

     

    I have photos of my original entry date (feb 9), and my Covid April extension stamps, so I will print those out. 

     

    Has anyone does this without an old passport?

  2. Here's my question:

     

    Lets say they actually give "automatic visa extensions"

    I want to know what the word "automatic" will mean, and how it will be defined by them?

     

    What will be "automatic" about these extensions?

    Does "automatic" mean no embassy letter required, but that you still have to go to the immigration bureau?

     

    I think a lot of people are assuming "automatic" will equal:

     

    "I don't have to visit an immigration bureau and I won't be charged a fine if I just stay at home"

     

    Unless that's explicitly stated my assumption will remain that everyone must go in to do 30 day visa extensions.

  3. Hey all,

     

    Just a few questions regarding the required documentation I need to succeed in getting the Visa Extension in this Covid Situation.

     

    My situation: 

    -I'm an American who flew into Bangkok on February 9th (having been in Indonesia several months) with a standard Visa exemption.

    -I then extended at Bangkok Immigration on March 3rd.  My extension of stay expires on April 8th. 

    -I've emailed the American embassy with necessary information and await the required extension letter to be returned via email.

    -I have my Passport, 1900 baht, my tm6 departure card.

    -I plan on visiting the newly set up immigration office near Impact on either the 7th or the 8th of April.

    -I am currently staying at a hotel, paying per week.

     

    Questions: 

    -What else will I be required to bring to the immigration office?  I have read the American embassy website faq, and I've read the Thai Immigration site, but am confused.

    -Do I need to show proof of residency under my current circumstances extending a visa exemption? (I would have done a visa run under regular circumstances, but I digress)

    -Will I need to show bank statements, maps of my location, etc etc?

    -Is there a link to the exact requirements somewhere?

     

    Thankyou for any and all information that can help me in this situation.
