TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK passport holder arriving in Thailand can initially stay for 30 days, but to extend her stay by an additional 15 days, she can apply for a 30-day extension at the local immigration office in Hua Hin, either at BluPort Mall or the main office. The extension costs 1900 baht and requires proof of accommodation, such as a hotel booking. It's important to note that she is allowed one extension on her entry stamp. Alternatively, she could consider applying for a 60-day visa online before arriving.

She can buy an evisa for 60 without complications whilst in the Uk.

Or do the paperwork and pay the fee whilst here for the 30 day extension to her 30 day visa exemption.

check with airline they will let them on if its a 45 day return ticket,as they may refuse if they do not have a visa to cover the extra 15 days,if theyve got a bit of time left before they leave uk do the online evisa ,saves the hastle of going to immigration when they get there. £30

she goes to the Hua Hin immigration office (either BluPort Mall or the main office) and applies for a 30 day extension for 1900baht.

She's allowed ONE 30 day extension on her 30 day entry stamp. It costs 1900baht.

This is a general list of what she can be required to show as far as documentation, it is NOT the Hua Hin specific list it is a general one.

She does not have to wait for her current stamp to expire to go apply for the extension because the 30 days is added to her expiration date
