Hi there.

I’m sure this question has been asked before. My apologies, techy stuff not my skill set, unable to find answer.

I have been to Thailand 3-4 times since August 24. Arrived visa free, always departed within the allowed time frame.

I arrived this current time on 9th December (UK citizen) 60 day visa free. I would like to stay an extra 30 days. First time not wanted any additional time on previous entries.

Where? How do I go. I’ll be in Bangkok (meanwhile travelling around) on 26th-27th February.

The location right building (please) would be great. Go to right place first time.

Hours and days of business.

What documents do I take? Passport, money, photos, proof of accomodation I believe. Is a copy of my booking.com booking sufficient proof for evidence of where I’m staying.

Cost?

If and I hope I do, get all the above correct, is my additional 30 days pretty much automatic? Once again I’ve never applied for any kind of extension in the past. I have never wish to manipulate, fiddle the visa system. Jist this one time, not a regular thing that I believe Thai authorities are looking more deeply at.

Apologies for boring questions. Any and all help mightily appreciated.

Regards to all.

These are the common requirements. There may be a few differences since each offices sets their own requirements. You can ignore the part about TM6 since that's discontinued.

For Bangkok you'll go to the IT Square Laksi office if you entered visa exempt.
