I have a Non-B visa (1 year extension) and I want to add the multi-entry. Do I need to do this at the immigration office that issued me the visa, or can I go to any immigration office to add the multi-entry?
Answer summary
If you have a Non-B visa with a one-year extension and wish to add a multi-entry, it's advised to check with the immigration office serving your current location. Some offices may not issue re-entry permits for extensions granted from another office, but it's worth trying. If unsuccessful, you can either go back to the original issuing office or purchase a re-entry permit at the airport before flying out.

That's a good question, some immigration offices will not sell re-entry permits to people on extensions from another office, BUT then again, some will.
I'd say you're out nothing by trying to see if you can get the re-entry from the immigration office that serves the area where you are now.
Worst case, if they say no, you go back to the office that issued your extension and get it OR you buy one at the airport before you fly out
