30 days extension Bangkok 2026 : am I missing a form ?

Featured Replies

Hi everyone,

For a 30-day extension request of a single-entry tourist e-visa at the Government Complex in Bangkok, I prepared TM7, TM30, STM9, and STM2, in addition to the passport photocopies, etc. But I’m almost certain that the last time—or times—they added a new form, a very short one. Does anyone know what I’m referring to? Could be STM11.

By the way, for the first time I filled out the TM7 directly on the computer. No problem with that for any reason?

Thanks!

No direct experience doing tourist visa extensions, but I have been using prefilled and printed forms ,TM7/TM8/TM47, at Bangkok immigration for 20 years. I always sign them in the immigration officers presence and never had any push-back/problem. Worst case they give you a blank to fill out.

Good luck, let us know how it goes

you have been handed 3 or 4 forms EVERY time at Chaengwattana that you probably just signed and never looked at while you were sitting in front of the officer

STM-2 The acknowledgement of criteria and conditions

STM-9 The Acknowledgement of penalties for visa overstay

STM-11 Consent form for fact-checking and information verification

They have been having people sign those for several years now, you just might have not noticed what you're signing sitting there

No issue at all as long as you print the form on one piece of paper front to back, not 2 copies

Also copy the PDF of your eVisa as it's required (as is a TM30 most of the time)

You should be good to go with the forms you mention I don't think that 30 day tourist extensions require a STM-11
