Update on the new Ubon Ratchathani immigration office. Opened about a year ago inside a university complex. Went there today (Monday) at 10.30am to get a 30-day extension on my SETV. I didn't see a photo booth at the office, but I got six photos across the street from the university for 130THB. It was a short walk. I brought copies of my passport and visa page, but they made their own copies and had me sign them. The worker had me fill out the forms and that was it. No questions asked. Super quick.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The Ubon Ratchathani immigration office, opened about a year ago inside a university complex, provides a quick service for visa extensions. A user recently reported that obtaining a 30-day extension on their SETV was straightforward, requiring no questions and little waiting time. They noted the absence of a photo booth in the office but found nearby photo services. Other commenters expressed curiosity about additional services like re-entry permits and confirmed the office's location within Rajaphat University.

I believe the office is within Rajaphat Uni, Ubon but maybe a ‘local’ can confirm????

Is it possible to get a re-entry permit there?

I am going out via that border, that’s why I asked. 🙂

You can get a re-entry permit at any Immigration Office. 1.000 Thb for Single re-entry and 3.800 Thb for Multiple re-entry.

I didin't check. From what I understand, you can get them at the international airports on your way out. You just have to do it before going through immigration or they cancel your visa.

Never heard of any Thai Immigration office without photo and copy services nearby :-) glad it worked out!

600 meters is not that far ;-)

Special for you: Krabi Immigration, nearest photo and copy service is on the parking lot of the Ministry of Transport about 600 meters away.

@ Chaeng Watthana, one of the copy and photo services is owned by an Immigration officer's family!
