ORIGINAL POSTER
Question relating to 60-day extension based on visiting family in Bangkok.

1. Which of the two immigration offices carry out this function and is it possible/necessary to book an appointment online?

2. What documents are required for the application? I do understand that offices operate on different criteria and that I'm advised to pick up the list beforehand, but I'm just preparing now and would appreciate advice from anyone who has done this recently.

3. Does the extension run from the expiry of my current Non O based on marriage, or from the date of application?

Thank you for any assistance

TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend your Non-O visa for 60 days in Bangkok for visiting family, you should go to the main immigration office at Chaengwattana. You cannot book an appointment online and will need to show up and wait for your turn in section L-1. Required documents include copies of relevant passport pages, TM30 receipt, lease agreement, your spouse's Thai ID and house book, Thai marriage documents, and a completed TM7 form. The extension will be added to the expiration date of your current visa.

Not relevant at the moment, but if you are married to a Thai you can apply for a 90 day visa in your home country and then extend it by 60 days at Thai immigration.

If you are on a Non-O visa/extension based on marriage you go to the main immigration office at Chaengwattana to apply for the 60 day visit thai family extension.

It is added to the expiration date of your current stamp.

You cannot book an appointment, you just show up queue up and wait your turn in section L-1.

Usual documents are copies of the relevant pages in your passport, your TM30 receipt, your lease, your wife's thai i/d and house book listing, the thai marriage documents and a filled out TM7.
