Colleen Duplock with the opening of the BTS dark red line now, from the new Bang Sue Grand Train Station, you simply take it to the Laksi station then catch a taxi.

How did you enter Thailand? Tourist visa or visa exempt?

OP@Stuart ********
my 30 days doesn't end until end of this month. Can we get the extension now or do we have to wait until closer to the visa expires? Read comments from old posts and conflicting info.Art *************
OPThank you both. Yes just looking for a standard 30 day extension.

as Stuart said you don't have a visa, you entered with 30 days visa exempt which is just a stamp. Go to MTT and apply for the extension it will be added to your current depart date not from when you apply. Make sure you take copies of everything you need. They do have copy service on the ground floor. They only process 300 a day so early in the day the betterWayne *********
@Stuart ********
lol easy to do mate :)Stuart *********
@Wayne ********
whoops my bad. I’m replying in a number of threads currently and mixed up the original post with another.Wayne *********
@Stuart ********
I am assuming he is seeking the 30 days allowed on exempt this time :)Wayne *********
@Stuart ********
that's for covid but if just doing the standard 30 day extension they add to existing. Then if go for covid they do from day of applying. I was there last week between Xmas and New year and was chatting to fellow Aussie guys who one was doing covid and 2 doing the 30 daysStuart *********
@Wayne ********
I’m not familiar with MTT and their policy for Covid extensions, but many offices will date the first Covid extension from the date of applying and not add it on to your existing stamp. Subsequent ones are added.Art *************
OP@Stuart ********
tourist visa. 30 days at airport.Stuart *********
@Art ************
no if you got 30 days on entry you entered visa exempt. In which case you go to MTTActivity
