Hi there,

I apologise in advance as this question has probably been asked many times but I am very confused and a little anxious around visa requirements!

I am currently on a Tourist Visa which expires in early May. I am waiting on some job interviews and will hopefully get employment and change to a Non-B visa however think I should extend my visa for an additional 30 days in case they take awhile to get back to me. I am just wanting to know what documentation I require to extend my tourist visa, what info I need to take to immigration. 

Sending appreciation and thank yous in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary

To extend your Tourist Visa in Thailand for an additional 30 days, you will need to gather several documents. These include: a filled-out TM7 application form with a passport-sized photo, copies of your passport's data page, the visa sticker, entry stamp, TM6 departure card, and a TM30 receipt (if required by the office you visit). Additionally, you will need to pay a fee of 1900 baht. Make sure to check which immigration office you will be visiting, as requirements may vary.

When you said you are on Tourist visa, did you buy single entry tourist visa in Thai consulate before you flew into Thailand or you entered Thailand visa exempt scheme (without real visa sticker)?

What's the IB in Sathon? Are you going to Bangkok Immigration?" If you're going to the immigration office at this location:

Immigration Bureau 507 Soi Suan Plu Sathorn Bangkok

*****

This office is *NOT* open to the public, and *WILL NOT* process any documents.

For Tourist Visas you will go to Counter J at Changwattana Immigration Office

As a rule you need the following to file for a 30 day extension on a 60 day tourist visa entry

filled out TM7 application form with a passport sized photo stuck to it

Copies of;

Data page of your passport

Visa sticker

Entry stamp

TM6 departure card

TM30 receipt (required at some offices)

Those things and 1900baht will get you a 30 day extension

how about stating what of the 70+ immigration offices you will be using to get the 30 day 'regular' extension on your 60 day tourist visa entry?
