I would like to hear from folks who recently entered Thailand 🇹🇭 on a 60 visa exempt then went to immigration to get a 30 day extension.

When you went for the extension I know you probably had to fill out a form on where you’re staying along with two passport pictures and the 1900 baht fee. Is there anything else required for the extension.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you 🙏
Answer summary
To extend a 60-day visa exemption in Thailand by an additional 30 days, you'll generally need to provide a completed application form, two passport-sized photos, and a fee of 1,900 baht. However, be aware that requirements may vary by immigration office, and it's recommended to check the local office's website for specific details. Additionally, be prepared for potential requirements like the TM30 form and the TDAC number from your last entry, depending on the office.

Best to get there before they open to limit your total visit time.

There are over 70 different immigration offices and they can each add their own requirements. This is a generic list of requirements but the office you use might be different.
