HI everyone, I arrive in Thailand on the 8th December on a 2 month tourist visa and was hoping to extend another month whilst there. How long should I wait before asking for another extension ?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The general consensus is that you can apply for a visa extension anytime within 14 days before your current visa expires. In some locations like Bangkok and Chiang Mai, you can apply for an extension when you have as little as 45 days left on your current visa. Additionally, in Phuket, applicants have reported being able to apply for extensions from their first day in the country. It's recommended not to wait until the last minute, and if staying at a hotel, ensure your address is registered.
