AUinAsia Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 If they don't announce further extensions then I need to go to thebimmigratik. Office today or tomorrow, but if they extend then I can go on a later date. But there has been no news at all yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJack54 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 OP, when does your current permission of stay end? It will be extended announced very soon. Keep in mind one time the announcement was made few days after they ceased. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please and thank you. (I still have 21 days left on my current extension) Can't help however if your not too far from immigration, personally I would attend tomorrow and inquire 1. Can/will they process it now. 2. When would the 60 permit date from. If it's at end of current permit then excellent grab it. If it's from date you apply (tomorrow) skip it. They will announce soon that the covid extensions will continue to be issued beyond May 29. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask Bill Gates...he’s just announced his divorce...didn’t make him happy! Just because that’s who you see in the mirror every day doesn’t mean everyone else sees the same thing! Issan farm girls and 20 year old bar girls are not the average Thai....they are just “your average” Thai! I don’t live in that world so I have a different opinion. This was published in Thaiger news on 01 April" Photo via Thai Embassy In a typical last minute decision, Thai immigration announced that foreigners stuck in Thailand due to the Covid-19 situation will be able to extend their visas for another 60 days, with the new deadline to apply for the extension set to May 29, allowing a stay in Thailand up until July 27. The initial deadline for the 60 day “Covid-19 extensions” was Tuesday, March 30. Some immigration offices, like Phuket and Koh Samui, were crowded with foreigners over the past week, many trying to extend their visas before the March 30 deadline." So whats it actially mean since most have be getting the under consideration ckme back 15 June? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please and thank you. (I still have 21 days left on my current extension) I went last week, over a wek in advance of expiration and they gave me an under consideration. So the only advantage of doing it early if they do extend, is I got a space consuming extra stamp. So if I had waited like the person asking in the post. So procrastinating and if they approve one get one stamp. If you go in advance you get additional stamp which fills up your passport book faster. What a waste the kast minute decision actually cost. So each time their procrastinating has put unnecessary stamps filling the passport faster and eventually costing more money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually go a few days before my extension is finished and I always get the under consideration stamp. It takes 3 trips to immigration before I get my full 60 days stamp.

Pla Simon Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I will goto collect my 60 day stamp today. I applied 2 weeks ago - my current stamp runs out tomorrow. For a modest admin fee, I could have forgone the "under consideration" stamp - which is probably what I'll do next time, applying 2 weeks early again, giving me 10 weeks to travel around, unhindered. The I.O. said these covid stamps are to continue - no information to the contrary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct. Think it's about 5500 which includes extension fee (1900). If in Bkk includes pick up and return of pp. Also no return for under consideration. It's an option.

Because they seem to prefer people to stay here and spend their money. For many people it is not possible to return to their home country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
