I am a UK citizen in Chiang Mai currently on a tourist visa until Feb 5th.
I plan to extend this for 30 days. When I arrived I had my condo register for the tm30.. but all I have is a printout from that confirming the registration.
1. will the above be a problem?
2. when should I go for extension? (seen mention of last 7 days)
If anyone is in CM I'd appreciate info on what time would be good to head to immigration. It was recently moved to the airport and I've seen some horrendous queues and people parking outside from 2am.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK citizen in Chiang Mai with a tourist visa until February 5th is seeking advice on extending their visa for an additional 30 days. They have a printout confirming their TM30 registration and are concerned if this will be an issue. They also inquire about the best time to visit the immigration office to avoid long queues, noting it has recently moved to the airport. Comments from the community suggest that a TM30 receipt is not required for a tourist visa extension, and the extension can be applied for within the last 45 days of the current stay, with late afternoon being a favorable time to visit the immigration office.
