Hey Guys

I may be moving from Saraburi.

Considering Hua Hin.

Can somebody please offer an opinion of Immigration Office in Hua Hin.

I'm on a non immigrant O-A multiple entry visa just extended for 12 months.

Thanks.
Answer summary
The Immigration Office in Hua Hin is described as small but efficient, with a satellite office available at Blu Port Mall for tasks like 90-day reporting and obtaining re-entry permits. A resident shared a positive experience, getting an extension and permits swiftly in a single visit. Some confusion arose regarding the friendliness of the officers and how that might affect relocation decisions.

it is a small office, and they have a satellite office in Blu Port Mall where you can do 90 day reporting, get re-entry permits etc.

A friend who lives in Hua Hin and gets his yearly extensions of stays based on being over 50 (retirement) there said that he showed up to get his extension 8:15 was 3rd in line outside the door, at 8:30 he went in got the extension, they asked if he needed a re-entry permit, he got that too, and they reset his 90 day reporting as well. He said he did everything with the one officer and was out of the office by 9:10.

Not really understand this question. Do you mean that if we tell the Immigration Officers are very friendly you move to Hua Hin and if we say they follow the rules and expect foreigners to do the same you move to another place somewhere inside Thailand?

OP
Robert I always follow rules. Just would like to know if the Hua Him Immigration office is user friendly. That's all. And if someone says they are not it doesn't mean I would rule out Hua Hin. Their negative experience may be self inflicted!
