Faranguz Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I've been told at the immigration I can't use covid extensions anymore (used two times). I don't know what to do to get those 2 extra months. Is going through an agency gonna help? Any legit agency to recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
at15 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 what visa did you enter on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKKTRAVELER Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 How did you arrive in Thailand? 30 days exempt, tourist visa, ED visa, Non Immigrant O? Are you based in Bkk, Pattaya, Phuket? These details will help others to answer you clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 What type of visa did you use for entry to the country is a factor now. If you entered with a non immigrant visa you cannot apply for a 60 day covid 19 extension. If on a tourist visa or visa exempt entry it can still be applied for until March 26th. There is no limit on how many you can get. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was just a officer at the immigration office where you applied at giving you false info. Go to another province and check into a hotel ann ask them to give you a screenshot of the online TM30 they did to show immigration when you apply for the extension at the office there.

And no extension for less than 90 days and that is for volunteer work the rest are all one year extensions unless married to or the parent of Thai you can get a 60 day extension.

Please someone correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they needed money for Valentine's Day gifts. Seriously though, nothing changed yesterday with regards to Covid extensions. The last change was made in late January, and the current order runs until March 25. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also note that the 12 month extension has financial requirements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antiparovian Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Is there such thing as a Legit Agency? Ask your local Immigration Office about "legit agency" I would be interested to hear their answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask your local Immigration Office about "legit agency" I would be interested to hear their answer. They would probably say nothing. In reality, the bribe money customers pay and that is shared between the agency and immigration makes everyone happy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
