Visa/Visa exemption advice please (I'm In Bangkok)…..any help greatly appreciated.

I’m Australian and arrived in Thailand on the 45-day Visa exemption. Now I wish to extend my stay in Thailand. From what I have read I can extend one time for another 30 days by going directly to immigration? Can anyone confirm this and let me know which forms/paperwork I need? Thank you so much.

By the way, I have searched myself and found some conflicting advice which is why I am posting here. Keyboard warriors/trolls…. I know you may be having a crap day but try to scroll on if you can’t help.

Cheers all :)

Marno Grobler No, only one tourism extension per entry is allowed. If you've just done a border bounce you can get the extension once.
