ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a 30-day extension of stay in Thailand, it is generally unnecessary to use an agent since applicants must appear in person at the immigration office regardless of whether an agent is involved. Various commenters suggest that the process can be straightforward and merely requires filling out forms, providing a photo, and paying a fee. However, some agents may expedite the process or accommodate specific local office requirements. Ultimately, while agents can provide convenience, they are not essential for this type of visa extension.
