Hello! We are on our first 20 days of a 60 day tourist visa. We would like to extend it a further 30 days and were wondering which would be the best way:

1. Do it now, while in a vacation rental in Ao Nang, as we leave in 2 weeks for a friend’s empty house in Pattaya.

2. It is fine to wait until Pattaya, staying at a friend’s place versus a rental will not matter much.

3. Just do a visa run instead since it is our first time in Thailand and unlikely to get denied for a single run.

Thanks for any input!

I visited Thailand every 6 months for 1 month stay in last 18 years. Now I am first time applying for the 60 day tourist visa and will try to get extension to stay with my family. I am going to stay in my girlfriend house. My question is, if questioned on immigration on arrival or while applying for extension it is ok to say that I want to stay longer with my family? Or it is better just claim tourist purposes. Thanks

I need a extended 30 day visa my 60 day runs out 18th May but going home 25th May anybody recommend a agency please thank you all sorted now

Thanks

Hi All, I'm on a Non O Retirement visa extension out of Chiang Mai. I'm thinking of moving to Pattaya. Can I do my next annual extension down there, or do I have to start afresh with a totally new Visa from there?

For the first 90 day report I know I should go to immigration rather than attempt it online. I need my passport, photocopy of info page, photocopy of visa and tm 47 form. Anything else? Thanks all

I finished my dtv and aprroved, but now need to sign the 90 days. I'm in a difficult situation - I recently moved from Chiang Mai to a new apartment in Lat Phrao, Bangkok, but the landlord refuses to provide his ID. Because of that, I can’t submit the TM30 form and update my address. My visa extension appointment is in the next few days - I urgently need a solution. If anyone has advice or has dealt with something similar - I’d really appreciate your help.

Hi brains trust,

I was given a 180 day passport stamp on on arrival to BKK on the DTV visa. 2 questions;

- Do I still need to do a 90 day report?

I might be moving to a different residence address to what was in the initial visa application.

- Will this cause issues if I need to do a 90 day report?

I’m sure this has been asked, but what documents do I need to take in for my 90 day report? I don’t know the name of it, but I’m sure there is an application to fill out? And also, I think a TM30? (proof of residence where you’re staying?)

What else is needed and how much the way do I have as far as days ahead or after my 90th day to do the report? I prefer to go a few days early in case there were issues.

And if anybody has done this in Phuket, please advise on where you went? Do you just google your local immigration office?

Thank you in advance to all 🙌

Do I need a TM30 form to renew a DTV visa if I'm staying at a hotel that doesn't provide one?
