They have a required documents section on the Chaeng Wattana Division 1 website. It is at the top of the page in the middle. It shows the different extensions and what paperwork and requirements are needed for each. Here is the link

Tullio *******
OPWhenever I click on mine I get reloaded the same page ....
Robert *******
It works fine for me Robert. I can paste what it is saying if you like.
Robert *******
I tried, I see all the different reason to apply for Extension but if I click on a reason nothing happens.
Robert *******
I like to help you, but I dont have a list of all specific requirements of all Immigration Offices in Thailand. I try to make such a list to help people in the future, so if you like to update what is the correct list, future members and I will thank you in advance.
Tullio *******
OPThat’s what I’ll do, even if last time I went and showed if the multi language birth certificate I got was ok the guy simply didn’t understand and said generically yes.... so I’ll try and prepare all the stuff go without children and see how it goes.....
Robert *******
You can visit the Immigration and ask the hand out with the requirements. Ask also if the children need to join. A short visit and you have all their specific requirements in hand, the list is normally in English and Thai.
Tullio *******
OPWill do once I find out myself was hoping would find info here, as the school is telling me some info, on the immigration website it’s different but confusing.... I’ll probably have to go there a few times then... do you think children need to come with me?
