TLDR : Answer Summary
This discussion revolves around the necessary documents for extending a stay with a Thailand visa, particularly from Koh Samui. Participants share various strategies for managing visa extensions, such as conducting border runs to neighboring countries like Malaysia, going directly to the local immigration office, or using VIP extension services. The conversation highlights differing opinions on the difficulty of showing a non-immigrant visa and the changing requirements for extensions, emphasizing the need for accurate documentation based on current regulations.
More information, numeral 7: the immigration office was strict about it. You can not apply in another immigration office different as the one you are living on (at list for the last three months). they check your T-30 and they ask for numeral 7 documents. Do not try to apply for DTV extension outside of the are where you live.

Easier to just go to your local immigration office. My extension is next month. Will just go to the office. Paperwork is minimal.
try to go soon to your local immigration office in case they require another thing or at list you have time to buy a cheap ticket to leave the country for fly out
Standard for Non-Imm-Extensions for years already... together with the "handdrawn map" where you stay, at some offices now replaced by a Google Maps printout (color) with Longitude/Latitude.

"rental contract for a house" is total hogwash. What if you reside in a resort , guesthouse or hotel ?
you need to show T-30 document, then a rental contract (related with the T-30) then receive for 3 months of that rental contract. Then you seriously have to apply for the extension in you local immigration office related with your T-30. Means you need to stay 3 months in one place before apply for extension.
it's TM30, not T-30. And you never needed three months in one place before you could apply for an extension of stay on a DTV or on a Non-Imm visaclass. A DTV holder could ask for a 180-days extension while being accomodated in a hotel, it's just that the hotel would need to supply a TM30 receipt to show Immigration. A DTV is a tourist-visa class, it is not a longstay visa or Non-Immigrant visaclass. So there is no need for a rental contract. What my issue with this form is, that it doesn't mention other means proofs beside a rental contract, as there are a few other accomodation options
