Can I extend my stay in Thailand until May 23rd if my visa expires on April 23rd?

Question

Good day, I would like to ask someone about my situation

On November 20th I visited Thailand for the first time in my life and got a stamp for 60 days, then I extended my stay for an additional 30 days and then flew to Vietnam on the last day (day no. 90)
Then I booked a flight from Vietnam to Bangkok which took place on February 23rd and there were some minor problems at the border, they started asking me about my financial means, travel plan etc. but finally after 2 hours they finally let me into Thailand with a stamp for 60 days (until April 23rd)

My question is: can I go to the immigration office on April 18th to extend my stay until May 23rd?

I heard from someone that in period of 6 months I can be maximum 90 days on this free visa

Ask Thailand · Answer

The user inquires about extending their stay in Thailand, having already received a 60-day visa stamp with a subsequent extension and entering the country again from Vietnam. They ask if they can obtain a further 30-day extension before the expiration of their current visa. Responses indicate that it is indeed possible to extend the visa at the immigration office, but caution is advised regarding the frequency of entry under the visa exemption rules, as overuse may lead to denial of entry in the future.

Yes, you can

Bring a copy or ensure a TM30 has been filed where you are staying before visiting immigration for the extension

Bob ********** · Answer

Yup but that will surely do it for entries for a while

Lloyd ******** · Answer

So, yes, you can apply for another 30 day extension.

𝗜 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝟲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗺 𝟵𝟬 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮 <- you heard wrong, and I wouldn't listing to that person about entry/visa/extension stuff EVER again 😮 😛

You can go get the 30 day extension at the immigration office like normal for 1900baht

You did notice though that you're not gonna be living here on free 60 day visa exempt entries (not by air, not by land) because they take a dim view of people doing that. You will get denied entry in the near future if you try another 60 day free stamp entry to live here

The 90 in 180 rule was rescinded in 2009!
