Visa extension
You are visa-exempt and need more time in Thailand
An extension of your visa-exempt or tourist stay by up to 30 days, granted at the immigration office for the area where you live. It is for people who entered visa-free and want to stay longer, or who need a visa for six months or more. We check your stamps and dates, fill in the TM.7 form, prepare the package and go to immigration with you. If an extension is not enough, we find a legal change of status.

You stay in Thailand longer than 90 days or need a translation legalised

Frequently asked questions
Can I extend my visa-exempt stay again after the extra 30 days?
Usually not: after the extension you need to leave the country or change your status. We will suggest a legal option for your situation.
I entered before 15 September — do I have 30 or 60 days?
If you entered before 15 September 2026, the previous rules apply. Your permitted stay is shown in your entry stamp — send us a photo and we will check.
How long can I stay in Thailand on a DTV?
Up to 180 days per entry; the visa is valid for 5 years. You can extend your stay once at immigration.
Can I work for a Thai company on a DTV?
No. The DTV is for remote work for an employer or clients outside Thailand, and for soft power programmes. To work in Thailand you need a Non-B visa and a work permit.
Can I work for a Thai company on a tourist visa or a DTV?
No. You need a Non-B visa and a work permit.
What are the requirements for the company?
Usually the registered capital and the number of Thai employees per foreigner are taken into account. The exact figures depend on the type of business — we check your company free of charge when you send a request.
