chakeeoyen Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Quote Will this madness ever end? We are in the middle of a global pandemic and the Immigration bureau are still insisting for stranded foreign tourists and expats to jump through hoops to extend their stay. This is the latest list released by Trat Immigration. Look at No. 10 #Thailand Richard Barrow's tweet today with a picture from Trat immigration. He mentions 'expats' along with tourists. Can anyone confirm if the requirements for a 60 day extension have changed based on the current situation? I'm on a Non-ME O visa and would be extending at Chaeng Wattana. Lastly, if I want to do the yearly extension AFTER the 60 day extension, is it possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people applying are on tourist entries. In a few rare cases it might be somebody on a non immigrant visa entry that does no qualify for any extension that would have to apply for the special 30 day extension. 23 minutes ago, chakeeoyen said: Can anyone confirm if the requirements for a 60 day extension have changed based on the current situation?

No problem for you since you qualify for a 60 day extension to visit your Thai wife or child. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a new document was needed. Some kind of confirmation from the amphur about my sons birth, not the birth certificate. Something else. Never been asked for that before. I dont know what it is. Hopefully the amphur will be open to deal with it tmrw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pravda Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Regarding 60 day extension based on marriage. Has anything changed? This is the first time I will be doing an extension while living in a condo. In the previous marriage I lived in my wife's house so I never had to bring a lease. Now I have to, but I see they also mention signed landlord's ID card. There is a signed driver's license on the lease agreement. Would this be sufficient or does it have to be a Thai ID card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you landlord is Thai it would have to be their Thai ID card. Some offices also want a copy of their house book. If not Thai it would be a copy of their passport. Edit: After reading the OP again that list is not for a normal 60 day extension. It was for the "corvid extension" and that was a Trat immigration list.

Pravda Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Hi Joe. Would it be possible to just say I stay with my wife in her house in BKK. The house is in her parent's name. The landlord is not replying to my messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
