November 9, 20232 yr Hello, Just a quick question Just had a hip replacement operation in Chiang Mai and my 30 day visa exemption extension runs out on the 15th Dec, which I fear won't be quite long enough for me to get on a plane and leave. My question is, can I get 2 extensions on a visa exempt stamp from CM immigration? Thanks in advance Richie
November 9, 20232 yr No. You are limited to a single 30-day extension. If you can get a letter from the hospital stating that you are not physically able to travel, you might be able to get a medical extension. Be warned that Immigration treats applications for medical extensions with extreme scepticism.

Perhaps I'll do a KL or an Udon Thani Nong Kai visa run in a month or so and hope for the best Cheers

If 7 days is all he needs. Doesn't sound like it though.
