TLDR : Answer Summary
The immigration office in Bangkok where you can get a visa extension is located at the Chaengwattana Government Complex, Building B South Entrance, Chaengwattana Road Soi 7. The office is open tomorrow, and it's advisable to call ahead to make an appointment. Note that extensions are handled at immigration offices, not embassies. For those worried about overstaying, if your current stamp expires on a day when the office is closed, you won't be charged for the overstay.

Remember IF your current stamp expires on a day the immigration office is closed and you go the next day they're open you do not get charged for overstay and you can get your extension like normal.

ugh. I was literally there yesterday. To "register" and they told me over the phone it was essential I physically go to register. How annoying 😕 I guess each staff doesn't know how the system works - not surprising... 😜. Maybe it's just luck of the draw depending on who answers the phone at the immigration desk! Oh well. I wasn't to far away.

, you are incorrect :/ . I called them talked to the customer service rep in the business center and you can get on the list by sending them an email of your passport data page, your visa and your entry stamp .. YOu don't need to go there twice for extensions of stays.

You cannot phone to make an appointment. Bumrungrad requires 2 visits. One to make appointment and give them your passport to prepare the documents. And one to get the visa stamped on Saturday. 900 baht fee. Plus 200 baht for photos taken there. It's quick an easy. But does require two in person visits

You also might want to mention that Bumrungrad charges a 900 baht service fee in addition to the 1900baht extension fee.

Yeah, I'm not worried Tod, just thought it was funny. My previous company used to do the same thing.

yeah, it's because the thai gov't self-signs their own security certificate. It's okay to go to.
