Is it possible to visit an immigration office to get an extention on my 90 days stamp for my Non-B visa? And if so, 7 days, 30 days? Or...?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The possibility of obtaining an extension at the immigration office for a Non-B visa is limited. Users suggest that while you can get a 7-day "extension denied" stamp for a fee, no longer extensions (like 30 days) are available. Instead, many recommend leaving the country briefly (border bounce) to reset your 90-day stamp.

and I can't see anything of value to be added. The O/P has a year-long, multi-entry Non-B where they bounce every 90 days. There is no extension available to bridge the time they want.

They need to bounce out and back in to get a new 90 day stamp.

End of story..

Go to KL for one night instead of using visa company. Flights from Surat Air Asia.

yeah a 20 day extension is not gonna happen :/

Just border bounce. I mean a year-long, multi-entry Non-B visa lets you come in and out all you want during the year it's good for. You'll get a new 90 day stamp then you can leave when you're scheduled to

7 days is no use to me, I actually need about 20 days, then Im heading back to Europe for Christmas, so was hoping a 30 day extention could be had, like with Tourist visas.

If he has a valid multiple visa, a regular border bounce will grant him another 90 days permission of stay.

go to a border and come back with a 30 days visa exemption

While you might be able to get a 7 day "extension denied" stamp that gives you a week to get out of thailand for 1900baht at the immigration office I'd say don't even waste your time and just border bounce for a new 90 day stamp.

you can get the 1 year Extension of Stay or the not approved stamp and 7 days to leave the country.

Visit the immigration office in your area, ask the hand out with requirements and if you can tick all the boxes and get the needed copies you can apply. Biggest problem most smaller companies having is, not paying the minimum wage to a foreigner, not paying tax and social security for the foreigner and 4 other staff members. That is why most companies send their staff abroad for a visa

Robert Lagas I have a 1 year multiple entry Non-B. It allows me entry to the Kingdom for 90 days per time, until its expiry date in August 2020.

My stamp says I need to leave by about

. I would normally do a quick border run to obtain another 90 days.

However I was wondering if I can get an extention for 7 or 30 days?
