ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello, I'm trying to extend my 'visa on arrival' for the first time at Bangkok. Which immigration office should I go to? Has anyone extended visa on arrival there recently?

- The Government Complex (Chaeng Watthana)

or

- Temporary Service Center at Muang Thong Thani

Thank you in advance ๐Ÿ™‚

TLDR : Answer Summary
A visa on arrival generally cannot be extended. If you are referring to a visa exempt status, you can potentially extend it at the Muang Thong Thani Temporary Service Center, which operates on a first-come, first-served basis (limited to 300 applications daily). If you specifically require an extension related to COVID, it's suggested to go to the Chaeng Watthana Immigration Office. Additionally, ensure that you have the TM 30 form from your hotel, as it may be required for the extension process.

Yesterday went to Muang tong they couldn't do covid extension. The officer said we have to go to Immigration change Wattana,,, so we went they and got extension. Very easy

You need tm 30 from hotel.

Why Muang Tong didn't do it?

At MTT, but be aware they are only taking 300 a day.

Visa on arrival cannot be extended.

If you mean visa exempt, it is at MTT.
