Hi everyone

I plan to live in Hua Hin and enter on a 90 day retirement visa approved by the thai embassy in Canada

Will I have to do extensions, reporting etc in Bangkok or can I do the 12 month extension and 90 day reports in Hua Hin

Many thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can manage all your reporting and extensions at the immigration office in Hua Hin. Upon entering on a 90-day Non-O visa, you'll need to file a TM30 notification of residence at the local immigration office in Hua Hin. Both your yearly extension and the required 90-day reports can be handled there, eliminating the need to travel to Bangkok for these processes. Just ensure to report your address to immigration within 7 days of moving.

You're answering your own question.

IF you show up on a 90 day Non-O visa you'll get stamped in for 90 days, then where ever you stay you will file a TM30 <- notification of foreigner in residence at that immigration office (in your case Hua Hin)

You will get your yearly extension AND do 90 day reporting there

You will do it where you made your TM30
