TLDR : Answer Summary
If you're looking to extend your 'Test and Go' visa in Thailand, you need to visit a local immigration office. The general process involves submitting a completed TM7 form along with required documents such as a copy of your passport, visa, passport stamp for the initial stay, departure card, a recent photo, and a fee of 1,900 baht. While the specific immigration office may vary depending on your location, suggestions include visiting the sub-office near Blue Tree Waterpark if you're in Phuket, or Muang Thong Thani office in Bangkok for faster service. It’s also advisable to check with local immigration offices for any updates on procedures.

From what I understand you'll need your TM7 completed before you go or use an agent. You go to wherever you are, the nearest immigration office, wherever that is.

In Bangkok where you go to get your extension it on your visa, or visa exemption.
If visa exemption, you go to Muang Thong Thani office.
any day within the 2nd month would prolly be ok. They will only tell you to come back later ( if very early) if they are busy. And blue tree office is rarely busy

I came IN on Test and Go. I got 60 days already. Just want to extend it early
What immigration office? What visa did you enter on?

Go talk to the immigration office where you are staying and ask them. With the new laws it’s hard to say if you can and can’t get an extension

I’m in Phuket and wanting a 30 extension to my 60 tourist visa. What paperwork do I need to bring to the immigration office?
you can have your documents copied and photo taken at the blue tree management office on the floor below if necessary. They are very helpful and know what you need
you need a form tm7. A copy of your passport info page and a copy of your visa and 60 days passport stamp for those 60 days. Also a copy of your departure card (tm6) and a recent photo and B 1900. Sign all copies and put your phone number and email address under your photo at the back page of the tm 7
If you are anywhere near blue tree waterpark then do it at the immigration sub office there as it’s friendly and quiet
If you happen to stop in phiksanulok between Chiang Mai and Bangkok I recommend doing it there. Did mine there last year... Super easy. I've been hearing Bangkok can be 4 hours or so but I don't have personal experience in Bangkok doing it
the only time MMT is busy is in the few days before a deadline. Not luck. Fact. Know when to go

Yes . Bring 1900 baht with you . Paper currency only. No ATM on the premises.Bring all your credentials.Don’t go to place on Wattana. Go to MTT.Took me about an hour.
I have the paperwork and receipts in my room. Otherwise I’d be more specific with the location.
Not trying to condenscend, but Google your needs first.Research is an imperative these days.

This is where I went in Bangkok.

Test & Go has nothing to do with your immigration status or extension.

You go to a local immigration office and apply for an extension. If you say where abouts in Thailand you are we could possibly be more specific.
