I sent an email today and the response I received quoted 8,000 baht. That’s a huge difference in the price quoted here of 4,500. Please provide clarification.

Sorry this service has changed as there are different restrictions in place since Jan 2024.

We are trying to lower prices for these services but for now we have a restricted quota.

For now we suggest applying in person, or using our services if you are unable to attend. ( this group can help you if you have any questions about the DIY extension process )

Is there any issue about an Aussie extending their 30 day visa if they’ve already done it once already this year. To be clear- we have left the country and are coming back in a month for 2 months. TIA

@Tamar **********
There might be, i was told 1 extension per year but that was when i tried to extend twice back to back.
Tamar ***********
@Brad *******
- yes no back to back. Would have to do a visa run for the third month.

We’re here now so 🤞😃

It may be helpful to download LINE app if you are coming to Thailand. It is the most common messaging app here, and can make things easier.

1900 baht and 25 minutes in immigration!

Why would I pay you 2600 extra to do something that I could easily do myself

We cater to a diverse clientele who find exceptional value in our service for a variety of reasons:

- Individuals with disabilities who find the process challenging

- Commuters burdened by long travel times and heavy traffic

- Those who prefer the convenience of a personal representative

- And many more reasons that are unique to each client

While the process might not be everyone's cup of tea, it's worth noting that doing it yourself typically incurs taxi fares ranging from 300-500 THB (for the round trip) and consumes several hours of your time.

The majority of our satisfied customers are individuals who used to handle these tasks themselves but have since discovered the numerous benefits of our service.

We position our offering as a VIP service, highlighting that while you can certainly complete the process on your own for 1,900 THB, our service provides a level of ease and sophistication akin to airport fast tracks.

you are right 👍, I have only ever done visa in Phuket and it is literally 20 minutes if that. I'm sure if you are in Bangkok and you do not know how to use public transport everything you're saying will be true so good luck to those people but not me

@Pedro ********
Because I can afford it. And I could not be bothered with the hassle. Besides it’s got nothing to do with people like you or the other complainers.

Siam Legal is another good agency

i suggest you contact them or look up the info on their website. I was very pleased with them.

To clarify, does Siam Legal offer a comparable door-to-door visa extension service?

If you've experienced their service, could you elaborate on how it compares in terms of price and quality?

Such information could be useful for those exploring their options.

Yesss! There are definitely multiple ways people look for expat credibility. Us humans are very hooked into creating hierarchy, aren't we?! (⌐■_■)
Don ******
@Thai *****************************
why would you charge for something anyone can just do for 1900? No documentation. Just show up.
Don ******
Pay double? That’s just silly. Claustrophobic? Wow thats a reach of an excuse. But yeah just putting it out there that you can just do all this yourself. OFCOURSE there are visas other then tourist you would need help with but this is not one of them. Also most cities have an immigration, that’s not as busy as BK. Just look up immigration and the city you are in. I have been the only one in the building in some of them.

Makes sense. :))

@Don *****
We clearly mention the immigration fee, and the fact that you can do it on your own.

With your logic then no one would ever order delivery food, or any door to door services.

We have had close to a thousand happy clients for this service, and they were well informed of their options. If they were disappointed or felt ripped off they would have left negative feedback.

@Don *****
many people, like myself are claustrophobic, hate being in crowded rooms or standing in queue's. I really don't like sitting in taxi's for hours either. I would much rather pay an agent to do all this for me.
THAI ******************************

@Don *****
This is a full service option, as we mentioned you can apply on your own for 1,900 thb (plus transportation, and your time).

Our customers are very happy with door to door extension services, but we understand this service is not for everyone.

I appreciate you mentioning that the DIY option, it makes you look more honest.. Thank you.

Why would you pay for a taxi when you have two perfectly good legs for walking? Why would you pay to have someone cook your food in a restaurant when you have a microwave in the condo? Why pay somebody to do your laundry? Wash your car? Do your taxes? Paint your walls? Fix the hole in your roof? Unclog your drains? Change your motorbike oil or tighten the chain? Water and cut your lawn?

Don’t be daft man. Each of us decides which services we wish to hire out, and which we do ourselves. Those choices others make are quite literally none of your business. Let it go.
Elly *******
@Paul *******
I totally agree. I have noticed a trend by where people think they look cool if they do all immigration stuff themselves. Some people are not well and just do not have the life vital energy to deal with mistakes and long waits. Or many just really value their time in a way that makes them choose an agent for efficiency.
Jennifer ********
@Elly ******
100%, they think it gives them some expat credbility or something, it's so silly. I've been an expat in Vietnam for 20 yrs and have spent a lot of time in Thailand, sometimes months at a time, and I know perfectly well how to deal with Immigration in both countries. That doesn't mean it's something I want to do when there are services that can do it for me 😅
Jennifer ********
@Paul *******
Exactly! It's my time, I can choose whether I want to use it to go to Immigration or pay someone to go for me. Immigration is a big mess and spending an hr or more there is not how I want to spend my time. I appreciate the visa service very much and have used it in the past. It was extremely well organized and worth every penny (so to speak, lol)
