Tourist Visa Extension Report. Jomtien Immigration. Arrived at 8.30 am and I was out at 9am. It took 30 minutes and it wasn't busy. 

Needed passport photo, TM7 form filled out, TM30 docket plus photo copy of it, passport, passport bio page copy, visa copy and entry stamp copy. 

I didn't really know where to go but went to the building on the right and was directly pointed to the new middle building where they did document checking. Passed that and was directed to main building counter one, handed over passport and papers and the 1900 baht and was told to take a seat and wait until processed. Took about 25 minutes guy calls my number and it was all done. Cost 1900 baht. You can do it yourself, all good.

TLDR : Answer Summary

A recent experience at Jomtien Immigration for a tourist visa extension revealed an efficient process that took only 30 minutes. Required documents included a passport photo, filled TM7 form, TM30 registration proof, passport, and copies of the passport bio page, visa, and entry stamp. The total cost was 1900 baht. Observations from others suggest that lower traffic during the low season may contribute to shorter wait times compared to previous experiences.

yep it does cost 100 baht more (2000thb in total) but it's very convenient since they fill out the form, take all the copies for you and the photo is taken with their webcam all we have to do is sign the copies.

yes this is a must have requirement. I am blessed to be staying in a hotel where they do everything by the book and don't get grumpy when I ask for it.
