Hi

I want to know how soon can I extend tourist visa at immigration?

My current 2month  tourist visa will end on May 3 and I will extend 1 month at immigration. 

After that I will change EDU visa from tourist visa 

I need to have full 2 months visa in passport for edu visa changing.

Answer summary

The individual is seeking information on how soon they can extend their tourist visa at immigration in Thailand, specifically noting that their current visa expires on May 3. They intend to extend it for one month before transitioning to an education (ED) visa. Responses indicate that the extension timing can vary by office, with some allowing extensions up to 45 days in advance, while others may allow only 30 or even 7 days. Additionally, it was mentioned that conversion from a 30-day entry stamp to an ED visa is possible, which might not align with the initial requirements stated.

You need?? Not really you even can convert the 30 days entry stamp to ED visa ;) I'm on ED myself and many of my classmates converted their 30 days entry stamp... So that's not real requirements...
