No such thing as a covid visa extension. Secondly the OP has nothing to do with "covid extensions". He was asking about #of days for visa exempt entry. That is 30 days. That was increased to 45 days (temporary measure) some time ago and subsequently back to the normal 30 days. Unrelated covid extensions are 60 days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now, here are photos of different sources calling it a "COVID" visa extension. Though you are correct all types of visas granted under a certain definition are simply visa extension but I alone must be incorrect, or the other reputable sources used here are incorrect.

Even immigration calls it "visa extension", but this term is still wrong and misleading and should be avoided. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those paper clips along with your statement is incorrect. I'm not trying to be picky, but it's important to understand the terms correctly. True even the immigration offices will refer to "visa extension". That's also incorrect, along with the term "retirement visa". We know what people mean and most of the times it doesn't matter. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
