Multiple Entry Tourist Visa. I entered just before my METV expired giving me 60 days. Do I understand correctly that I could extend an additional 30 days at immigration?
Answer summary
Yes, you can extend your Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) by an additional 30 days at immigration after your initial 60-day stay, provided you follow the correct procedure.

Tod Daniels wrote this. to get 9 months out of a 6 month METV you get the visa as close to the time you're coming here as you can (because it's valid for 6 months from the date it's issued)

You arrive get stamped in for 60 days

when that runs out you go to the border, stamp out/in get 60 more days

when that runs out you go to the border, stamp out/in get 60 more days

when the VISA itself is almost expiring you go to the border stamp out/in and get a final 60 days (taking you to almost 8 months)

Then you extend that last entry by 30 days at the immigration office for 1900baht taking you to 9 months total
