You'll need to turn up with your documents 2 to 3 weeks before to get them checked and then you'll be given an appointment date. DO NOT use online booking system on main immigration page, they will.not honour it.

Bummer that they don't do the online country wide appt booking system ๐Ÿ™

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS: this is ONLY about the Samui immigration office requirements for extensions based on Non-O or Non-OA visas

If you don't use Samui for your extension no need to say what your office requires ๐Ÿ™‚
