How to delay the expiration of visa on arrival in Thailand during the epidemic?

Affected by the global epidemic, many international students regard Thailand as a third-country transit point for foreign countries. However, the visa on arrival is overdue. How to extend it? Is there any new policy in Thailand? A series of questions, let's take a look.

Before introducing the extension, let me introduce the individual tourist visa in Thailand:

Thailand visa type:

Note: To apply for a visa to Thailand, you only need to hold a passport.

1. paper visa: you can stay in Thailand for 60 days, and the expected entry queue time is within 10-30 minutes (the most convenient and shortest queue time).

2. Tourist e-visa: You can stay in Thailand for 60 days, and the waiting time for entry is expected to be no more than 5 minutes (expensive, but short).

3. Visa on arrival: 15 days, and the estimated queuing time for entry varies from 50 minutes to several hours. The cheapest, but the queue time is long.

4. Electronic visa on arrival: 15 days, and the expected entry queue time is within 10-30 minutes (expensive, but short entry time).

Thailand has two entry procedures:

1. Holding paper labels, electronic travel labels and electronic visas on arrival:

On the plane (1), the flight attendant will give you an entry and exit card for Thailand, and everyone should fill it out.

(2) After disembarking, partners who have handled paper, electronic travel and electronic landing tickets will queue up for entry from the paper and electronic ticket windows with their passports and electronic ticket vouchers.

(3) After entering the country, take your luggage.

2. Apply for a visa on arrival:

On the plane (1), the flight attendant will give you an entry and exit card for Thailand, and everyone should fill it out.

(2) After disembarking, go to landing visa window and submit relevant application forms.

(3) Go through the formalities, get a passport, and queue up for entry from the visa window after arrival.

(4) After entering the country, take your luggage.

Thailand's introduction of individual tourist visas ends here. Everyone in Britain knows how long their visa can stay in Thailand and how to enter Thailand. The next step is to introduce the key points.

Affected by the domestic epidemic, some partners want to stay in Thailand, and some partners want to stay in Thailand.

So many friends asked me about the visa extension: (Let's talk about the official news of Thailand first.

1. In this special period, the Immigration Bureau of the Thai government has formulated a special warm-hearted policy to cheer for China:

Due to the domestic epidemic situation, if the return destination airport is closed and it is impossible to return to China, passengers from the following three regions: Wuhan, Huanggang and Ezhou can be exempted from the detention delay punishment imposed by the Immigration Bureau when leaving Thailand.

2. Thai officials said: Thailand can still apply for visas on arrival.

3. Thai officials said: China tourists will not be refused entry to Thailand, and Thailand 100% is sure to cure the patients and control the epidemic.

4. The Immigration Department of Thailand stated that after the 15-day visa expires, China tourists can temporarily leave the country if they don't want to return to China, and the Immigration Department can extend it for up to two months! (The Thai government has put this wave of actions in place, and it is expected to resume the Thai line after the epidemic.

How to extend the visa in Thailand?

For non-Hubei tourists, if they are worried about the spread of the epidemic and do not want to return to China for the time being, they also want to extend their stay in Thailand and extend their visas. What should they do? What documents are needed and how much is the specific fee?

Let me explain to you today:

1. Thailand's tourist signs are divided into sticker signs and visas on arrival.

(1 sticker tourist visa, valid once, can stay for 60 days after entering Thailand, and can be extended for 30 days at a time, counting from the time of entry.

(2) The temporary travel decision is made in the visa on arrival after entering the Thai airport. This visa can stay 14 days. On day 15, you need to leave the country. If you want to postpone it, you can postpone it once for 7 days.

How to apply for visa extension (this is the key, this is the key, this is the key.

Conditions: You can apply for an extension before the visa expires. However, it is recommended not to apply for renewal too early, because the renewal date is calculated from the day you get the renewal visa.

Materials to be prepared:

1. Original passport exit card (important

2. Application Form (obtained at Immigration Office)

3. 1 color 2-inch photo (if there is no 2-inch photo to take.

Address: local immigration offices in cities of Thailand

Website of the Immigration Bureau of Thailand: http://bangkok.immigration.go.th (you can check the address of the local immigration bureau online in advance.

Processing sequence:

Bring your certificate to the immigration office to fill in the extension application form and copy the passport page and visa page.

2. Submit the completed application form and photocopy materials, and pay the fee.

3. Waiting for a visa and passport

4. Complete the visa extension.

Extension time: the visa on arrival can be extended for 7 days, and the sticker tourist visa can be extended for 30 days.

Note: If you want to extend it for a longer time, you need to consult the local immigration bureau in Thailand, and you can extend it for up to 2 months.

It took me three days to apply for an extension of the visa on arrival. It is said that the staff of Pattaya Immigration Bureau really made me miserable. Perhaps most of the reason is the language barrier, but I think there are other reasons. Anyway, I finally did it. The visa on arrival was extended for three months, and I think I am good enough. Generally, the visa on arrival is extended for one month. Let me talk about the procedure. You can take fewer detours!

First of all, you have to go to the Bangkok Embassy to issue an epidemic certificate, copy the passport photo page and visa page, and then you can handle it at the window. There are not many people, so let's do it there. Maybe there will be fewer people when I go. In short, it is easy for the embassy to issue a certificate.

Then you can go to the Immigration Bureau, Bangkok Immigration Bureau and Pattaya Immigration Bureau. I went to the immigration office in Pattaya, and you can tell me everything you have done. Fill out a form on the first day, make many copies, then do it, give you a list, and then tell you to print this and that. After printing, he will say that he is short of this and that, and then continue to copy all kinds of important materials, and then let you get off work. The next day, you will get everything ready for the first day, and then he will prepare a lot of materials and copy them down. Finally, he said that the materials were ready, and then he left work. At that time, I had 10 thousand grass mud horses galloping in my heart. On the third day, I came again. Fortunately, the same person prepared everything he wanted. He's been watching. Finally, he found a real estate license and said that he needed the original. I really want to curse. Why didn't you want the original yesterday? I want to print out the photos of the real estate license. Fortunately, I have enough time today. I gave it to him at 2 o'clock, and finally I found no problem. I took photos and asked me to pick up my passport at 4: 30. In addition, I report every 20 days for 90 days.

Actually, I was thinking that the intermediary company is at the entrance of the immigration office. Maybe it's because they want me to act as an agent instead of running by myself. In short, after three days of hard work, the result is good, and it is finally done. It is estimated that people with bad attitudes have long been angry.
