What is the best way to extend a 60-day visa in Thailand?

@Brenda ********

We did 60 on arrival in July. No forward ticket as were not sure if we would do the full 60 days. Went to immigration in jomtien yesterday. Extended for another 30 day's, Very easy. If we come back next year. Probably going to do the 15 month retirement visa. That will give us long enough i think & decide if we want to stay longer. Also won't have to do any border runs or extensions. We were told yesterday at Immigration they are starting to crack down on those who are trying to live here by border hopping. Now i have no idea if this is True. That is what we were told yesterday. Border runs every two months to get an extra 30 days is not Cheap with an Agent 3500 Baht PP and up. That seems to be the going rate in Pattaya & Jomtien. Or you could drive & do it yourself. But can only do two land border hops a year. Other option fly out for a few days and fly back. I just dont want to deal with that every 60 days and worry if they reject Entry after a few border hops.

Ok. You’d want to go to counter J at Chaengwattana.
