Can a British and Dutch passport holder extend a 30-day visa in Thailand for a trip planned to Samui and Phangan?

@Rosemary ******

why not extend? That makes no sense. Why go through the time and expense of leaving the country when you can just go to your local immigration office (every province in Thailand has one) and get an extension?

@Rosemary ******

Terrible advice!

@Duncanc *********

Thai Embassy? I think you mean Immigration for extension. A little research before travelling is wise.

As they've already made it through immigration, that is not relevant. Also its the flight company that sometimes wanna see exit flight. They've obviously madevitvthrough that as well. So now can just get 30 day xtn. Now they will hv the return flight so should be no problem

@Barry ***************

Except for the return flight part.

@Roscoe *****

you can book an appointment but it's not required and the system hasn't been working well lately. The link is in the image posted above

@Matthew *********

same in Jomtien 🤔

You can extend extra 30 days immigrate control

Bkk at IT SQUARE you can reserve Q online

@Kev *******

Should take your own advice

Visas are issued by the country you're in, not your own country's offices. The laughter is because it's pretty much common sense. If you travel all the time, then you should know something so simple. Also, the accompanying photo makes it seem as if you're not very serious about anything. At all. So yes, you're a bit amusing.

@Roscoe *****

just brush off the a$$holes in here ok? They aren't even here to help.

@Roscoe *****

Do yr 30 dd then fly back to alentejo (way cheaper than thaialand if one expects to have a upmarket lifestyle)

@Roscoe *****

A visa for Thailand has nothing to do with a foreign country embassy. You have to deal with Thai immigration

@Roscoe *****

no you cannot extend any visa at your embassy, you arrived on a 30 day visa exempt stamp not a visa at all,but you can extend your stay for another 30 days at your local immigration office for 1,900 baht each, good luck

@Roscoe *****

no .. what does a Thai visa extension have to do with a British or Dutch embassy ? .. you will get a 30 day visa waiver on arrival .. you can then extend that once by 30 days at ‘ Thai ‘ immigration 1,900 bht .. giving you your 60 days .. after which you’ll need to leave the country , and return , and if you flight out and fly back in you can get the 30 day visa waiver again .. or you should ..

@Lee *********

I don't see any misinformation in the comments.

@Timmy *****

love this answer. Simple, to the point, provides a solution.

@Todd ********

and then its 60 days more if you go immigration second time and pay 1900 B once again so all together 120 days right ?

@Regina *********

much better that the anonymous post seeking help or info

@Regina *********

Maybe just big ego. Nice looking people tho

@Regina *********

thought they are couple🔥

@Regina *********

I usually reject posts that have a photo like that. But at least this photo is a tiny bit related to the post so I let it in this time.

@Martin ****

immigration office different than embassy go to immigration office for 30 day extension

@Nigel ********

hopefully he's washed those underpants by now!

you can get to Laos 🇱🇦 and get 90 day's. In total its a 3 day trip. Many hotels in Bangkok can book this trip for you. Even have someone collect you for the hotel and take you to the bus station. I've done this afew times and the journey isn't to bad, you'll have one night in Vientiane which is pretty cool 😎.

If you extend ur trip when ur back in Thailand passed 60 day's and you have 90 visa you must go to immigration for the last 30days or you will be fined around £10 a day each for over stay. Hope this helped you out and have a safe trip.

Lucky you,s

Laos is a long way from the islands

Crossed the friendship bridge and came back the same day

I done it last month

@David *****************
