TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can extend a 90-day Non-Immigrant O visa in Thailand without having to leave the country, provided you meet certain requirements. The extension typically involves visiting the immigration office before expiration. Different categories of Non-O visas have varying requirements, such as financial proof for retirement (800K THB) or marriage (400K THB). However, there are cases where extensions can be granted without proof of funds, particularly for spouses or under certain conditions. While it's not possible to extend for just 30 days, a 60-day extension is usually available.

Since you are there for 30 more days after that, you can do the 60 days extension for 1.9k baht without proof of funds.

You can extend Non-O by 60 days if you are married (no proof of funds needed).

Depends on which non-o and if you meet the requirements.

E.g a non-o retirement needs 800k banked for two months in a Thai bank to extend it. Or it's 400k for a non-o marriage.

Which non-o have you got?

Technically that is not an extension to the Non-O but an extension for another reason hence it does not extend the current entry stamp (usually) but gets 60 days from the date of application which, as you stated, does not have a financial requirememt

Typically, extending a non-immigrant O visa in Thailand is possible by visiting the immigration office before the visa expires.

well yes to a yearly extension - if fulfill requirements

Every non-O can be extended but requires money in the bank or proof of income from your embassy if they offer this service. Without knowing what type of Non-O you have, it's impossible to give additional information.

He said he only need 30 more days so he can do the 60 days extension which doesn't require proof of funds.
