What QuickVisa does
QuickVisa provides document review, case preparation and procedural support for Visa Extension Consulting. The final decision is made by the competent Thai authority.
What an extension of stay is
In Thai immigration a visa, permission to stay and an Extension of Stay are different documents. The visa is usually issued before entry. The stay date is stamped on arrival. An extension (often on form TM.7) asks Immigration to lengthen that stay. People say “visa extension”, but the legal act is extension of stay.
A tourist TR stay is commonly extended once by 30 days. Long-stay grounds (retirement, family, education, work) have their own extension rules and document sets. The government fee for many personal extensions is THB 1,900. An extension is decided by the office; it is not guaranteed.
An extension does not by itself allow exit and return. Leaving without a Re-entry Permit, where one is required, can cancel the stay. DTV and some other multiple-entry visas follow their own entry/extension cycle.
