My grandaughter and friends are coming to Thailand in August and unsure how long they woukd like to stay .
If they enter Thailand on 30 day visa free can they go to immigration if they want to stay after 30 days and apply for an extension?
They are from Australia đź‘Ť
TLDR : Answer Summary
Visitors from Australia are eligible for a 30-day visa-free entry to Thailand. They can apply for a one-time extension of 30 days at an immigration office. However, for stays longer than 30 days, it is usually easier and more cost-effective to obtain a 60-day tourist visa prior to arrival through the e-visa system, which simplifies the process and avoids the need for an extension.
