April 14, 20223 yr I’ll move your question to the appropriate forum where someone will, I’m sure, advise. This forum is for those seeking advice for travelers from Thailand. theoldgit
April 14, 20223 yr I’m not sure what your question is asking. The Thailand Pass is unrelated to your visa and is simply permission to enter and proof that you have met the requirements (vaccination) and Test&Go (quarantine) booking) IF you enter on a 30 day Visa (or 30 day Visa exempt stamp) and wish to stay longer you will have to find a way to extend your stay.
April 14, 20223 yr From your post, it appears you plan to enter without a Visa (Visa Exempt) and will receive a permission to stay of 30 days. Before the period ends, you can go to a Thai Immigration office and extend your stay one time for another 30 days - fee is 1.900 baht. If you remain in Thailand after your permission to stay expires, you will be in Thailand illegally. If caught before departing, you would be placed in detention and then deported at your expense. If not caught, when you depart Thailand, Immigration will charge you a fine of 500 baht for each day of overstay up to a maximum fine as I recall of 20,000 baht.

April 15, 20223 yr As stated, there is no 30-day visa (except in the unlikely event that you have a transit visa, in which case you cannot extend). Assuming entry without a visa, receiving a 30-day visa exemption, you can extend one time for a further 30 days. Then you have some options for legally staying longer, but they are not easy. It will usually be better to leave Thailand and return if you want to extend your stay.
