TLDR : Answer Summary

The recent amnesty extension allows individuals to remain in Thailand until September 26, but there is no requirement to visit immigration for the standard extension. However, for further extensions beyond that date, documentation from your embassy may be needed, and you would have to go to immigration within a specified timeframe. Clarifications on confirmed end dates (August 31 vs. September 26) suggest that the latter is the correct date.

You DO NOT need to go to immigration in order to receive the new amnesty extension.

The extension is automatic and allows you to stay in Thailand until Sept 26.

If you think you qualify to receive a further extension beyond Sept 26th, you will need to obtain a letter from your embassy and go to immigration sometime between July 31st and Sept 26th. The reasons they have mentioned that they will consider granting a further extension beyond Sept 26th are medical and lack of flights or required quarantine in your home country. There is no guarantee they will grant any further extension and every case will be considered based on the information you provide them.

If you plan to leave before Sept 26th, you dont need to do anything.

Not totally 100%. If you are on a tourist visa or visa exempt you do not need to go to immigration if you plan on leaving before 26th September. If you want to stay longer you need to go and apply but this will be on a case by case basis.
