What is the process for obtaining a 60-day visa extension at Chaengwattana Immigration Office in Thailand?
For those who have been using MTT here was my experience @ CW today....
Arrived @ 7:30 am to close the loop on my latest 60 day extension. Don’t be fooled by the empty building....I was number 149 in the queue despite arriving before 8 am.
Head around to gate 2 from the entrance and you will see an information table set up...the immigration officers were really helpful and friendly.
The process is much more streamlined that MTT and you will receive a queue number that corresponds with a seat number. Find your seat, wait and then just follow the queue around to the main desk where they will give u another queue number for the appropriate counter (j) which is to the left.
Business started at 8:30 and I was out by 9.15 am.

yeah they called me too. Good customer service! Tod *********
REMEMBER PEOPLE; the ONLY people who use Chaengwattana for their covid extensions are people who originally entered on a tourist or Special tourist VISA or the people on Non-Immigrant type entries.

@Tod ********
When my contract at work ends, and if I cannot find a job until the visa ends, will I be able to apply this 60-day extension?Tod *********
It's called the "Government Complex" for a reason ;) and there are many MANY other government offices in Building B (and Building A too) other than the immigration office which is located on the second floor by the South Entrance to building B
Thanx for the update.
