Good afternoon, 

Quick one (I think/hope).

Where in Bangkok do I need to go to get the 30-day visa extension? 

Thank you 🙏

Answer summary

In Bangkok, the location for a 30-day visa extension depends on how you entered the country. If you entered on a valid tourist visa, go to the main immigration office at the government complex on Chaengwattana Road. If you entered on a visa-exempt entry, visit the immigration office at IT Square Laksi Plaza, third floor. Both locations have nearby copy/photo shops for necessary documents. Note that immigration offices are closed until 8:30 am on Monday due to the APEC Summit.

@Michael ********

you are correct, you WILL NOT be able to do your extension tomorrow 😮 at least not in Bangkok, Nonthaburi OR Samut Prakan because all of the immigration offices in those provinces are closed until Monday.

SO what that means is

If you're going to get an extension in Bangkok you HAVE to go Monday, (seeing as your stamp expired a day the immigration office was closed you will not be fined for overstay IF you go the very next day they are open to get your extension <- which is Monday the 21st)

It would be a quick answer IF you'd bothered to mention what stamp you entered on 😮 : as in visa exempt OR with a valid tourist visa from the consulate before you came here 🙂

In Bangkok if you entered on a valid tourist visa entry (meaning you bought a visa from the thai consulate before you came here and were stamped in for 60 days) you go to the main immigration office in the government complex (Building B) out on Chaengwattana Road.

That location is here

****************************

Where as IF you entered on a visa exempt entry <- showed up and got stamped in for FREE for 45 days) you go to the immigration office at IT Square Laksi Plaza, third floor

That location is here

There are copy/photo shops at both locations near the immigration offices.

Keep in mind all immigration offices in bangkok are closed until 8:30am monday morning because of the APEC Summit.
