Hello.. If my 60 day visa is valid until 8/8 and I want to extend it for another 30 days, can I do it the last day? And if yes what are the chances for the immigration to be too busy and I don't get it the same day? (In Bangkok - immigration near Don Mueang)

TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can extend your 60-day visa for an additional 30 days at the immigration office on the last day, but it is advisable to do it earlier to avoid any last-minute issues. The extension costs 1900 baht, and as long as you arrive early and obtain a queue number at the Chaengwattana Immigration office, you should be served the same day.

Go now and have peace of mind. Why wait till the last minute and take unnecessary risks?

My girlfriend's landlord has a copy of my passport and he uses it when I stay with her on holidays, but I don't know if her bothers for weekends.

many Immigration offices follow the law that you should be registered at the address. It is by law that the owner, landlord report a stay of a foreigner within 24 hours after arrival.

you can get a 30 day extension on your 60 day tourist visa stamp for 1900baht at the immigration office.

You don't hafta wait until the last day because they ADD the 30 days to your current stamp's expiration date.

As long as you get a queue number at Chaengwattana Immigration's you'll get served that day.
