Hi I am coming to Thailand on the 30 days vise exempt, I like to stay 30 days more, is it easy to get  another 30days when i am there.

Answer summary

Visitors to Thailand on a 30-day visa exemption can extend their stay by applying for a 30-day extension at a local immigration office. However, it's often recommended to apply for a 60-day tourist visa prior to travel, as it saves time and avoids the hassle of visiting immigration while in Thailand.

Once inside Thailand you can get a 30 day extension from the local immigration office that serves the area where you stay, but depending on the location that can take the best part of a day. Much less hassle just to get a 60 day tourist visa before you travel

Apply for a 60 single entry tourist visa from Thai embassy in your country it saves you time and 1900 baht by not having to visit immigration where your staying in Thailand.

Yes.

But if you have time, I would recommend applying for a regular tourist visa that gives you 60 days without having to visit Immigration.
