Hello,

I have to do my tourist visa extension next Monday.

Many of you post these two addresses: Chaengwattana or Muang Thong Thani.

For reasons of proximity, I would prefer to go:

Chamchuri Square Building, 18th Floor, Phayathai Road, Pathumwan, Bangkok 10330

Is this address still valid for extending a tourist visa?

Thank you for your feedback.

And by tourist visa you mean before you came here you BOUGHT a tourist visa from a thai consulate in your country and when you arrived you were stamped in for 60 days right?

IF you are on a real 60 day tourist visa entry you go to the Chaengwattana Immigration office and you want Counter J. There is no need to make an appointment because that's not a busy counter and you won't wait long in the queue.

it is running and allegedly they fixed the "glitch" but for Counter J at Chaengwattna it doesn't matter if you have an appointment or not, there are so few people they just tell you to sit down and wait
