ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, hope you’re all well 🤍 I’m Australian and currently in Chiang Mai on the 60 days Visa Exemption and would like to apply for a 30 day extension. I was hoping someone could assist me please 🙏

Is it possible to do this all online or do I need to visit an Immigration Office? If I need to do in person:

- which Immigration Office would you recommend?

- can I apply 2 weeks in advance?

- can I make photocopies of passport and take passport photos at the Inmigration Offices?

Thank you so much!
