TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, both the 30-day visa on arrival and the 60-day tourist visa can be easily extended at Phuket Old Town Immigration, as shared by the user who successfully extended their visa shortly after arrival. It is important to note that for a 60-day tourist visa, you must wait 15 days before applying for an extension, which can be done when you have 45 days or less remaining.

With a 60 day tourist stamp you would need to wait 15 days before going for your extension, as you can apply when you have 45 days or less left.

it doesn’t “help others” to advise them to do something against policy because you got lucky.

then your friend was just lucky, the Immigration officers had a fine day, and thought "let's give both of these guys an extension, so they don't need to come back" . . . . .and by the way: There is NOTHING such as a 30-days visa-on-arrival. It is called visa-exempt entry and you receive a "stay permit" of 30 days
