TLDR : Answer Summary

A visitor can enter Thailand under the visa-exempt rule for 30 days upon arrival. After this period, they can apply for a further 30-day extension at an immigration office for a fee of 1900 THB.

go and extend as soon as possible it gets added on so 60 in total. Don't leave it until the last minute like many do.
