TLDR : Answer Summary
To extend a 30-day visa on arrival in Bangkok, your parents will need the following documents: 1) Their passports, including copies of the data page, most recent visa, most recent stamp, and departure card. 2) A TM30 form, which can be obtained from their hotel at check-in. 3) Immigration forms (varies by office). 4) One passport-sized photo. 5) A fee of 1,900 THB. Note that they should go to the Muang Thong Thani immigration office for the extension, not the main office at Chaengwattana.

remember if they entered on a 30 day visa exempt entry they will NOT go to the main immigration office at Chaengwattana to get their extension but instead will go to the office at Muang Thong Thani

1. Your passport and:

a. a copy of your data ("picture") page

b. a copy of your most recent visa (if you have one)

c. a copy of your most recent stamp

d. a copy of your departure card

2. A TM30, filed in the immigration office. You can get that from your hotel at checkin.

3. The forms (each immigration office may have different forms, and want to use their special forms)

4. 1x passport pictures

5. 1,900 THB.

The extension of stay will be issued at the same day.
