TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on what documents are necessary to extend their stay in Thailand for an additional 30 days after utilizing a 45-day visa exemption. One comment clarifies that there is no 45-day Visa on Arrival; instead, the user likely means they traveled under a visa exemption, and mentions that specific requirements can vary by office.

There's no such thing as a 45 day visa on arrival. Visa on Arrival is where apply and pay for a visa when you arrive to Thailand.

You have visa exempt. Every office has different requirements but this is a general list of requirements.

Only ONE 30 day extension possible, then you must leave LOS

Any immigration office, but in Bangkok only at

IT Square Laksi, 3rd floor for visa exempt entry stamp extension

Make an online appointment

you need to bring:

** your passport (Duh) 🙄

*passport size photo

*signed in blue ink copy of passport information page

*signed in blue ink copy of entry stamp

* print out copy of visa (if applicable)

* 1,900 baht

* infinite patience with a smile

(photo and copy services available there)

Your hotel or residence should have filed your TM 30

#go early in the morning

# fill in 3 forms available at the office

# your address & local phone number

# don't wear a tank top or flip flops / shorts (though some do-- 555

smile for their web cam 😁

Why go early in the morning if you have an appointment? The appointment letter suggests 15 minutes before appointment time

you're wrong. TM6 is only temporarily suspended for air entry. If you arrive via land or sea you'll receive a TM6 and you must have it with you for an extension.

thank you for the update .

these days I'm tempted to believe more people enter by plane than by land

anyway couldn't it be more accurate to precise what's needed in every different case 🤔😒just wandering

.I can picture the guy who arrived by plane and is freaking out because he can't find this damned TM6 , that he is supposed to give to get his extension .
