How early should I approach the Immigration office in Phuket for a Tourist Visa extension?
Quick question, doubtless it's been asked many times previously for which I'm apologise.
I'm in Phuket, here on a Tourist Visa that expires 10th Sept. When/how early should I approach the Immigration office about the possible 30 day extension.
TIA

You can use either the Phuket town office (room 101) to the left of the staircase or the Patong office. I’m yet to see a confirmation that the Blue Tree office does TR extensions.

Phuket allow 45 days prior to expiry. No disadvantage by going early as it’ll be added on to your existing stamp.
