Hi if you travel to Thailand without a visa, on the 60-day European (visa) on arrival, is it possible to extend that in any way, without leaving the country? Maybe a 30-day extension at the visa office? thanks

Answer summary

Travelers entering Thailand under the visa exempt entry can initially stay for 60 days. This can be extended once for an additional 30 days at a local immigration office for a fee of 1900 baht. It's important to note that this entry does not require a visa, and the situation may have specific conditions depending on the traveler's nationality.

There is no 60 day European (visa) on arrival 🙁 I think you're talking about just showing up here and getting stamped in free stamp for 60 days (called a visa exempt entry).

Since July 15, 2024 people from 90+ countries get stamped in for 60 days visa exempt.

You can extend that one time for 30 days at the immigration office serving the area where you stay for 1900baht
