There are a few recommendations from us if you need to get Tourist Visa Extention (30 days)

- To process this extension, it will take around ~1 working days.
- You can start the process 30 days before your visa expires. We recommend you have at least 5 days left because the preparation will take some time to complete.
Covid Extension (60 days)
Another option during COVID is you can extend your original visa with Covid Extension which you will get additional 60 days to stay in Thailand.
This Covid Extension is applicable for various kinds of visas. If you have any questions, you can always reach to AISA specialists for assistance.
Here’s also what you need to know for Covid Extension (60 days)
- It will take ~ 1 day to proceed.
- You can start 30 days before your current visa expires. We highly recommend you start doing the extension for at 3-5 days for the preparation before proceed.
- If you are holding a working visa (Non-B) with a work permit, you will need to cancel them first to extend as a Covid Extension visa.
- If you have extended this Covid Visa 60 days before, you still can extend it. COVID pandemic is not what anyone could have foreseen, so this special visa is here to help you stay legally in Thailand.
Please note that this Covid Extension Visa is eligible until 25th January 2022. Meaning that if you are considering doing the visa extension, you must do it before 25th January.
