TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is experiencing frustrations in booking an appointment for a visa extension in Thailand, as the online system shows full bookings and does not allow selecting later months.

They mention that appointments tend to open only 30 days in advance, highlighting the importance of being persistent and adaptable.

Don't believe everything on the internet about spending a whole day there shit gave me anxiety. I went twice, one in Hua Hin, went at 11am was out in 15mins. Second time was in Bangkok, arrived nearly 2pm and was out at 3pm.

The appointments are only opened for 30 days in advance... since they are all booked, tomorrow you will see appointments open for 20 Dec only, until they're all booked, then you have to wait until the next day to see any available for 21 Dec.

The online booking systems are not reliable.

Many problems.

Just show up and get it done.

I believe you can only extend 30 days before expiration. That may be why it's not letting you set an appointment.

I believe some immigration offices allow 45 days before expiration. In my province Phichit they do allow 45 days.
