ORIGINAL POSTER

I’m an American on a tourist visa. Currently staying in an apartment in Nonthaburi. I’m approaching the time when I have to apply for an extension. I plan on going to IT square in Lak Si. I’m hearing some conflicting info on the need for a TM-30 for an extension like this. Any insight would be appreciated.

THESE are the common found requirements for the 30 days extension of stay at Thai immigration office for 1900 Thai baht.

Right NOW we are advising everyone to have a TM30 on file with the Thai Immigration office for your extension of stay.

It's required that your property owner file a TM30 within 24 hours of your arrival into your residence.
