TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend your stay in Thailand for another 30 days, you can apply for a tourism extension at your local immigration office if you entered as a tourist (either visa exempt or with a tourist visa). This extension can only be done once. The process is generally straightforward; often, you won't need to fill out many forms or wait long if you go at the right time. Alternatively, some suggest leaving the country and re-entering to reset your visa duration.

pls specify if you are in bkk and if you've come in with visa exempt (60-day no visa) then we can effectively assist.

Immigration should be the best place or leave and come back and start your time over

If you entered as a tourist (visa exempt or tourist visa) you can apply one time for a 30-day tourism extension at your local immigration office.
