PHUKET: Foreigners staying in Phuket on the 60-day ‘COVID visa’ can now apply through to September to extend their stay in Thailand, Phuket Immigration has confirmed.

 

The so-called ‘COVID visa’ was launched amid the pandemic last year so foreigners stuck in Thailand can stay in the country until they choose to go home or more options to fly home become available.

 

The ‘visa’, initially launched to allow stays of 30 days, now allows foreigners to stay for 60 days at a time, but still forcing foreigners to renew their ‘visa’ every two months at a cost of B1,900.

Many do it on a daily basis.

Very easy to get, Take copies from your passport (Name page, Last entry stamp, Previous extensions and the departure card TM6) together with a passport size picture and 1900 Baht. At the office you have to fill in a few forms and that's all.
