ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone! I’m in Thailand for a month but was recently given another month to stay because of work delays back home. I’m solely here on my original 30 day tourist exemption, but any advice on what to do to extend another 30 days on a tourist visa would be extremely helpful! I tried to look it up but the TM6 was canceled before I got here so I don’t have one of those cards to extend with?? Any tips please? 

Thank you ahead of time for the assistance! 🙏

Typically you'll find a photocopy shop nearby immigration that can do your photos and knows what to make copies of for the common tourist extensions but it pays to check where one is and arrive with plenty of time if you don't prepare everything at home first.

entering on a 30 day visa exempt stamp you can go to the immigration office that serves the area where you live and get a 30 day extension for 1900baht.

and you don't need a TM6 to get an extension 😕

, If you are in Bangkok, You are going to go to IT Square Laksi Plaza temporary office, just next to Lak Si station of SRT Dark Red Line. Not any other offices in Bangkok.

You will go here. There are photos&copy shops around the office, same floor.
