Can I apply for a one-year visa extension in Thailand?

There are two ways to apply for a Thai visa, one is to apply for a sticker in China, and the other is to apply for a visa on arrival in Thailand. The two kinds of visas are different, and the time they can be extended is different. Let me tell you about it separately.

Arrival visa:

Anyone who has applied for a visa on arrival knows that it is easy to apply for a visa on arrival in Thailand and there are not many materials. Just line up with the materials. But it is precisely because of this that the embassy has restrictions on the stay time and effective time of such visas. Even if the application is postponed, it will only be postponed for 7 days, and you must return to China immediately after 7 days. Therefore, Thailand cannot apply for a one-year extension of the visa on arrival.

Sticker visa:

Sticker visa is issued by the applicant after the materials submitted by the embassy have passed the examination, and the examination process is relatively formal. Therefore, under normal circumstances, applicants with sticker visas can extend their stay for about 30 days, but they can also extend their visas for one year, but they need to meet some conditions, such as business, education, marriage and pension.

Only those who meet the requirements can apply for a one-year visa extension. Here, applicants need to pay extra attention to the fact that if they want to extend their visas for one year, they need to change their travel status in Thailand to non-immigrant status in advance, otherwise they cannot extend their visas for one year.

To sum up, except landing visa and Thailand, applicants can extend their visas for one year as long as certain conditions are met. When applying for extension, the visa extension applicant needs to pay the fee according to his personal situation. The Immigration Bureau of Thailand will inform the applicant of the specific fee when applying for extension. /zd/xx
