Hello again every one.  🙂

I want to extend my 60 day visa exempt for another 30, is this still possible?

I don’t have a TM6 form or TDAC because when I entered Thailand it hadn’t started yet. 

I was advised I might only be able to extend for 7 days, can anyone clarify? 

Thanks in advance for any input.

Edited: excuse my confusion, I thought it was a sixty day visa on arrived an turns out it’s “visa exempt” thanks 🙏🏼

thanks and excuse my ignorance, I have now been advised it’s a 60 day visa exempt. I just knew it wasn’t a tourist visa so thought it would be a visa on arrival.

If you really had a 15 days Visa on Arrival you only would get 7 days which in fact is an extension denied stamp. However If you entered on a 60 days visa exemption you should be able to apply for one 30 days tourist extension at your local immigration. You don’t need a TM.6 and TDAC is only for arrival.

Bring a receipt of your TM.30 address registration, a pass photo, copy of ID-page and last stamp in your passport plus 1900 baht in cash.

You don't need a TM6 or TDAC. Leave it blank on the application form. Never ask another question to whoever told you that you would only get 7 days, because they are an idiot.

thank you.

the person who suggested that was NOT an idiot. The OP is at fault for using the wrong terminology. People on real visas on arrival are allowed only 15 days upon entry and they can't extend in country, yet some offices would give an "extension rejected" stamp that allows them to stay for up to 7 more days. So, the advise was accurate. The question was wrong, tho as the OP isn't on a visa on arrival.

But there is no 60 day Visa on Arrival so the "idiot" should not have been giving advice on one
