TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend your visa for 30 days at Jomtien Immigration, you should apply within the last week of your current visa. Key requirements include having a filled-out TM7 form, a passport photo, your current TM30 form, a copy of your passport's photo page, and a copy of your immigration stamp page. You may also need a residence letter or contract if living in a condo. Ensure to provide two signed copies of all necessary documents. Alternatively, using an agent can expedite the process, often for a fee around 4000 Baht, allowing you to avoid queues and have them handle most requirements.

You don’t need an agent all you need is your passport and you can show up even a day before your schedule to leave the country, but it’s better to go a few days early and you’ll also need a picture of yourself and usually they have photo places where you can do it real quick close to the immigration

I think it was 1900 for the extension and 1900 for the agent,,,,just pop in an agency and ask them.I did it about three weeks before my visa exemption ended...

Walk in and ask at the first information desk for their handout sheet. Then you know for free what you need. And the extension costs you 1,900

I used Tik Tok visa agent in Jomtien, cost 4000 Baht and they had it sorted in 24 hours, no queuing at immigration, I only went there to meet their rep for photos.

Use an agent they will tell you what you need and do it all for you, worth the dollars

Jomtien immigration will give you the extension when you have under 7 days left on your current stamp, you will require a TM7 form filled out, a passport photo, your current TM30, your passport plus the 1,900 baht for the 30 days extension.

Jomtien immigration can be difficult sometimes so as a precaution do 2 copies of everything also it doesn’t hurt to photocopy your information page of your passport and also your latest entry stamp as well, just in case.

I just did last week at Jomtien for the first time you need passport photos . TM30 , copy of passport photo page and immigration stamp Page x 2 signed ,if in condo a letter or contract to show you reside there then get Residence certificate which you also get from immigration. Go to information they will tell you if you have everything and give you a queue number . Have to do residence cert get a copy then information again for extension . A few hours to do all . I did over 2 days. You can only extend when 7 days or less

@Stephen *******
you do not need a Residence Certificate to get an Extension, just a TM30

@Graham *****
they asked me for one ?

@Stephen *******
you don't know what you were asked for then. A residence certificate is for opening a bank account or getting a drivers license. You need a TM30 for an extension.

Need to have condo contract and one passport photo

Or of stay at hotell then ask from there , proof of living place ..

Then easier way is to pay at immigration 220 baht so they will fill up all applications for you .. and thats it ..

Passport also of course :)

At Jomtien you can only apply during your last week. This is a general list of requirements but each immigration may have different or additional requirements, especially Jomtien.
