I’m a Dutch passport holder who’s here in Bangkok visa-exempt. Where exactly should I get my 30-day extension these days? I will bring my passport and a recent passport photo, do I need anything else? Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A Dutch passport holder seeking a 30-day extension for a visa-exempt stay in Bangkok should go to the immigration office located at IT Square Laksi Plaza, third floor. Along with their passport and a recent passport photo, having a TM30 form printed out may be necessary, but it generally is not requested in Bangkok. Although the official website indicates no available slots, walk-in services are still an option.

They moved from the government complex at chaeng wattana road? So normal tourist visa extension now at laksi plaza?

extensions for people who entered WITHOUT any visa (coming in visa exempt) haven't been at Chaengwattana in YEARS now.

They were at Muang Thong Thani, then they moved to the IT Square Laksi Plaza third floor back on April 18th 2022

I currently don’t have a TM6 departure card. I think they didn’t require it this time to enter Thailand. I hope that won’t make a difference.

which is exactly why it says "IF APPLICABLE" right after the TM6

They stopped with the TM6

Airlines still give... for nothing. They don't need at airport immigration

The website of the Immigration Office in Laksi Plaza says there are no slots available for tomorrow. Can I still show up tomorrow somewhere in the morning and try to get my 30 day extension?

Though I’ve had the TM30 prepared in the past, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked for it. I’m currently staying at my girlfriend’s condo.

Bangkok usually doesn't ask for TM30 so you should be good there
