pauleddy Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 A filipino friend (single) arrived here 18 months ago and got a job (now quit). His idea was to head back to the Pines, but due to quarantine etc at both ends, he was stuck here and obtained a Covid visa. This runs out tomorrow, it seems! What are his options? Can he now convert to an 0 visa for 60/90 days? Can he extend the Covid visa? Or will they throw him out now? Thanks Eddy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Until friday he can apply for a further 60 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauleddy Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Thanks. After that, can he ask for a further 60? He has met a lover and does not want to leave. Or can he fly out and fly in? I seem to have read that you cannot do 60/60/60 forever. He is of the impression that agents will get more 60s but it will cost 4500b.

Obtain the covid extension this week.. Tomorrow in fact Edited November 24, 2021 by DrJack54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't. If the land borders were to open that might affect it being extended again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has an opinion. That's what forums are about. Personally I believe that covid extensions will continue untill at least some land borders are open. Along with simple entry into Thailand and other places via land. When will that occur? Would just be a guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
