TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is asking if they can obtain a 6-day extension on their visa from Phuket immigration before their upcoming flight. The community responses indicate that generally, extensions beyond the allowed period are not granted, and the individual would face an overstay fee or might be given a 7-day stamp to leave Thailand. One comment suggests an alternative solution of exiting to a nearby country and returning for a new 45-day stamp.

Was at immigration today,got my 30 day extension. Then asked about the 6 days until I leave the country without visa, first I was told I would have to pay when I left for overstay 3000 , then another person told me that if I came back to immigration before my 30 days expired and pay 1900 and they would give me 7 days extension.

Thanks for all the advice guys👍👍

No extension given. You get 7 day stamp to get out of Thailand

If you apply for another extension its my understanding you will get denied and given 7 days to leave
