TLDR : Answer Summary

A user successfully extended their METV visa for 30 days at the Central Festival Mall in Chiang Mai, reporting a quick process that took 30 minutes and required a few forms including TM7 and TM30. They noted that many people do not utilize the immigration office at Central Festival Mall, despite it being relatively uncrowded.

Can you get your tm30 there and take photocopies like at the office near the airport.

Thank you for your update,

in Chiang Mai you can apply for a new extension when you have 45 days or less left on your current stamp 🙂

I find it strange that more people in Chiang Mai don't use the immigration office at Central Festival Mall.. It seems like it's never all that busy..

was indeed very quiet. 1 person in front of me, the 90 day reporting desk was empty. Really quick and easy.
