ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello guys, does anyone here has gotten a 30 day extension for 1900THB at Samut Prakan immigration office while not really staying currently In that area?

How was your experience there and what documents have been required ( I read it can vary slightly from immigration office to immigration office)?

I ask because actually it's cheaper and faster for me to get there because of the new BTS extension than going to Chaengwattana but I do not stay currently in Samut Prakan.

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the possibility of obtaining a 30-day visa extension at the Samut Prakan immigration office for 1900 THB, despite not residing in that area. The author seeks insights regarding the required documents and personal experiences from others. Responses indicate that extensions are typically linked to the registered address, suggesting that one cannot choose a different immigration office if not residing in its jurisdiction, and caution that Samut Prakan may have strict rules regarding extensions.

IF you don't stay inside the area served by the Samut Prakan immigration office you CANNOT use them for your extension.

Plus Samut Prakan is hella hard core on people getting ANY extension there having filed a TM.30 form.

You get extensions where your registered address is, you are not able to pick and choose which office to use.
